release: desktop v1.0.0-beta.1 (installers + ffmpeg) - #15
Merged
Conversation
Recordings needed a system ffmpeg. Now a static ffmpeg binary is bundled inside
the app via Tauri externalBin ("bin/ffmpeg"), so there's no external dependency —
without committing ~45MB binaries to git.
- release.yml downloads the correct ffmpeg per target (eugeneware/ffmpeg-static)
into src-tauri/bin/ffmpeg-<triple> before tauri build.
- download:ffmpeg script now actually downloads the host binary for local builds.
- tauri.conf.json: externalBin ["bin/ffmpeg"]; also flipped bundle.active to true
(it was false, which would produce a release with NO installers).
- ffmpeg.rs already resolves bin/ffmpeg next to the executable — where Tauri
places the sidecar — so no Rust change; system ffmpeg stays the dev fallback.
- Docs updated (RELEASING-DESKTOP.md) incl. the GPL-build license note.
