Fixed critical issues preventing v2 model auto-download:
1. Removed silent v1 fallback in from_local - now raises FileNotFoundError to trigger download
2. Updated unified_model_interface factory to pass model_version parameter
3. Factory now properly tries from_local first, then from_pretrained for auto-download
4. Added model_version parameter to generate_speech and load_tts_model signatures
5. Pass model_version from engine config through unified TTS node to processor
6. Updated README to clarify v1/v2 files coexist in same directory
Now when v2 is selected but files missing:
- from_local raises error instead of falling back to v1
- from_pretrained downloads missing v2 files automatically
- Model loads correctly with v2 tokenization enabled

Italian F5-TTS models work better with native text rather than IPA phonemization,
similar to Portuguese-Brazil models.
Fix SRT overlapping functionality system-wide
Technical implementation:
- Add unified timing mode routing in AudioAssemblyEngine with assemble_by_timing_mode()
- Fix ChatterBox Official 23-Lang processor to use correct assembly method for pad_with_silence mode
- Now properly uses assemble_with_overlaps() instead of assemble_smart_natural() for overlaps
- All engines (ChatterBox, F5-TTS, Higgs Audio, VibeVoice) now handle overlaps consistently
- Resolves audio being cut off when SRT segments overlap in timing

Technical details:
- Add safetensors support to ChatterboxVC.from_local()
- Implement auto-detection for .safetensors and .pt files
- Add strict=False for model loading compatibility
- Resolve file format mismatch for multilingual VC models
Implemented complete VibeVoice engine integration following unified modular architecture:
Engine Infrastructure:
- VibeVoice engine wrapper with model management and generation
- Engine adapter for standardized interface integration
- Proper ComfyUI model management integration
- Support for both 1.5B and 7B models (Microsoft + community)
Core Features:
- Two generation modes: Custom Character Switching and Native Multi-Speaker
- Character voice management with [CharacterName] tag support
- Pause tag processing with [pause:xx] syntax
- Time-based chunking UI (minutes converted to characters internally)
- Unified cache system following ChatterBox patterns with 💾 indicators
- Full integration with Character Voices node
- 90-minute generation capability and 4-speaker native mode
Technical Implementation:
- Engine configuration node with ⚙️ emoji consistency
- Unified TTS node integration via processor delegation
- Proper parameter validation and device management
- Dependency management with --no-deps installation approach
- Fixed name collision issues (vibevoice/ → vibevoice_engine/)
- Comprehensive error handling and fallback systems
Architecture Compliance:
- Follows exact Higgs Audio integration patterns
- Uses unified streaming infrastructure
- Maintains modular design under 600 lines per file
- No code duplication, reuses all existing utilities
- Proper separation: Engine → Adapter → Processor → Unified Node
Installation & Dependencies:
- Added VibeVoice to install.py with dependency conflict resolution
- Updated nodes.py with conditional imports and diagnostics
- Comprehensive PROJECT_INDEX.md documentation
Tested and verified:
- Model downloading and loading
- Voice reference handling (dropdown and Character Voices)
- Cache functionality with proper hit indicators
- Multi-character generation and pause processing
- Replace global method selection with intelligent per-junction analysis
- Analyze each chunk boundary individually for optimal transition method

- Enhance generation info reporting with detailed per-junction method breakdown
- Add backward compatibility for silence_padding method alias
- Fix tensor dimension mismatches in silence generation

The auto method now intelligently selects different combination methods for each junction
based on text analysis, resulting in more natural audio transitions.
- Fix HiggsAudioEngineNode return type from HIGGS_AUDIO_ENGINE to TTS_ENGINE for unified node compatibility
- Remove duplicated parameters: seed, enable_cache, enable_chunking, max_tokens_per_chunk, silence_between_chunks_ms
- Keep engine-specific parameters: max_new_tokens (generation limit), voice_preset, audio_priority, system_prompt
- Update TTS Text node to pass max_chars_per_chunk to Higgs Audio adapter
- Maintain character-based chunking via ImprovedChatterBoxChunker with token-to-char conversion
- Preserve clean separation: universal parameters in TTS Text, engine-specific in Engine nodes
The Higgs Audio Engine Node now properly connects to unified TTS Text and TTS SRT nodes
while maintaining engine-specific generation parameters that other engines don't have.
The viseme detection system was incorrectly using 0.4 (40%) as the default confidence threshold instead of 0.04 (4%), causing excellent vowel scores to be rejected as "neutral". This prevented U and O vowels from being detected despite perfect geometric conditions.
Root cause: Hardcoded 0.4 defaults throughout the system ignored user's 0.04 threshold setting.
Fixed:
- mouth_movement_analyzer_node.py: Function defaults and option parsing
- viseme_analysis_factory.py: Factory defaults and validation
- abstract_viseme_classifier.py: Base class defaults
- temporal_consonant_analyzer.py: Temporal analyzer defaults
- abstract_provider.py: Provider defaults
- openseeface_provider.py: OpenSeeFace provider defaults
Enhanced:
- Added frame number display to preview video
- Added vowel scores debugging display
- Added comprehensive geometric features display (roundedness, lip_ratio, MAR)
- Improved roundedness calculation using proper geometric circularity
- Enhanced U/O detection ranges and scoring logic
Debug confirmed: O scores of 0.66+ and U scores of 0.47+ now properly detected instead of rejected.
