**macOS NAS / SMB compatibility**: adds a fallback when a network volume does not support exclusive renaming, covering staging, finalization, rollback and undo.

**Copies to network volumes**: copying can continue when the destination explicitly does not support preserving POSIX permissions; real access and I/O errors still stop the operation.

**Naming templates**: handles spaces inside tokens such as `{ title }` and preserves token-like text contained in media titles.

**Media details**: corrects video bit-depth detection for formats such as NV12 and for files reporting an unknown raw bit depth.

**Subtitle timing**: fixes an overflow when applying drift correction with large offsets and improves precision over long durations.

**Archive cache**: prevents cleanup crashes caused by out-of-range timestamps in cache markers.

**Security**: updates TLS and frontend dependencies and prevents hooks and Plex/Jellyfin refresh requests from automatically forwarding authentication data through redirects. Configure the final endpoint URL directly.

**Performance**: reduces allocations during natural path sorting and template rendering.

**Usage analytics**: restores website-to-app attribution and adds screen and settings navigation events.
