Highlights:

• Adds support for the new PaddleOCR v3.7.0 version with improved accuracy for Chinese, English, Japanese and Latin languages. Other languages also profit from the improved detection model. • Adds option to save OCR detection/recognition images annotated with the detected boxes/text (currently limited to PaddleOCR), useful for reviewing or debugging OCR results • Adds Drag and Drop Support (Currently limited to Windows due to an upstream issue on Linux) • Adds option to disable frame stitching for better OCR accuracy • Adds Copy CLI command to clipboard feature • Adds option to reset settings back to default

Additional notes:

• Fixed a crash of the video preview of the GUI caused by a few select video files • Fixed a mistake in the available PaddleOCR language list in the GUI • Improved performance if a brightness threshold was applied • Quite a few optimizations were done to shrink down the GUI and CLI executable size

Notes:

• Utilizes standalone version of PaddleOCR from https://github.com/timminator/PaddleOCR-Standalone • Utilizes standalone version of Chrome-Lens-OCR from https://github.com/timminator/Chrome-Lens-OCR • Linux version requires glibc 2.35 or newer (can be checked by running ldd --version in a terminal)
