Set color-scheme on the theme roots so native controls render in the active
theme, and give the header template <select> an explicit elevated background +
themed <option> colors — an author-styled select's popup otherwise defaults to
white in dark mode.
The fixed-width settings panel overflowed horizontally because the tab nav
didn't wrap, pushing the X close button off the edge and adding a horizontal
scrollbar. nav now flex-wraps. Adds an About section: version, build commit,
and a link to the source repo (opened via open_url).
Mirrors the NPU package card, shown only when hardware_status marks DirectML
applicable; downloads model+runtime via download_directml_package and reloads
hardware to flip to Ready.
True only when staging DirectML would light up a present GPU this build can't
otherwise accelerate: npu compiled, no Vulkan baked in, and an AMD/Intel GPU
present (or NVIDIA without CUDA).
load_transcriber dispatches OnnxOpenVino/OnnxDirectML through one OnnxTranscriber
block. download_and_extract_runtime is parameterized (sha + readiness) so the new
stage_directml_runtime reuses it; hardware_status reports a directml package field.
load() now selects OpenVINO (NPU) or DirectML (AMD/Intel GPU) by BackendId over
the same ONNX artifacts; ensure_runtime_env takes the target runtime DLL. Adds
an opt-in directml_transcribes_speech spike for on-GPU validation.
load_transcriber now resolves the accel path instead of assuming a GPU
BackendId has a working offload. Only requests whisper GPU offload for
WhisperCuda/WhisperVulkan; NPU goes to the ONNX engine; everything else decodes
on CPU and reports the backend actually used.
whisper.cpp bakes in one GPU backend at compile time, so a BackendId alone
can't say how a vendor is served. Add AccelPath + resolve_accel(_with) as the
single source of truth over (compiled features x runtime readiness), and derive
BackendInfo.available from it in the DXGI + NPU paths. Closes the gap where a
present-but-unsupported GPU was marked available and best() routed to a no-op
GPU. Pure resolve_accel_with is unit-tested across all vendor/feature combos.
