 ## Version History
 
+### 0.4.2
+
+- pattern details now show an inline `Show: <quality>` hint next to the quality field when the pattern itself has no stored quality but the selected show does
+- inspect stream tables now show attachment format labels like `TTF` in the codec column and keep attachment language cells blank instead of showing an undefined language
+- ffmpeg damaged-MP3 diagnostics now recognize additional corruption lines such as `invalid new backstep`, keeping them grouped under the `warn-corrupt-mpeg-audio` review summary
+
+### 0.4.1
+
+- `convert` now supports `--copy-video` and `--copy-audio` to keep the selected stream type in copy mode without applying the corresponding reencode flags, filters, or formatting options
+- ffmpeg conversions now monitor diagnostics while the process is running, retry unset AVI packet timestamps once with `-fflags +genpts`, and stop early when a file should be skipped instead of waiting for the full job to finish
+- end-of-run convert summaries now list only ffmpeg findings that still require review, including named remedy identifiers such as `warn-corrupt-mpeg-audio`
+- `upgrade` now finishes by reporting the installed FFX version together with the active bundle branch
+
 ### 0.3.1
 
 - debug mode screen titles now append the active Textual screen class name, making screen-specific troubleshooting easier during inspect and edit flows

 - Delete this scratchpad once the optimization backlog is either converted into issues/work items or distilled into durable project guidance.

-## Missing Timestamps
-
-Detect ffmpeg warning "Timestamps are unset in a packet for stream 0. This is deprecated and will stop working in the future. Fix your code to set the timestamps properly" and try autofix by -fflags +genpts -> Warning if fails -> Error. Check if flags collide with anything.
