What is new in Earnote 1.0.1

### Deutsch

**Fehler behoben:** Unter macOS 27 konnte Earnote abstürzen, wenn man die Seitenleiste rechts (Informationen) ein- oder ausblendet. Das Fenster hat jetzt eine feste Mindestgröße.

**Vorlesungen importieren:** Deine Uni lädt Vorlesungen hoch? In der leeren Aufnahmen-Liste gibt es jetzt den Knopf „Video oder Audio importieren …“ (auch ⌘O). Von Videos behält Earnote nur den Ton – eine 90-Minuten-Vorlesung braucht so etwa 50 MB statt rund 1 GB.

### English

**Bug fix:** On macOS 27, Earnote could crash when showing or hiding the inspector on the right. The window now has a fixed minimum size.

**Import lectures:** Your university uploads lectures? The empty recordings list now has an “Import Video or Audio…” button (also ⌘O). Earnote keeps only the audio of videos – a 90-minute lecture takes about 50 MB instead of around 1 GB.
