# Heizen Meets: mute your mic, file a meeting, stop when the call does

This patch is about the desktop companion. **Heizen Meets 1.1.6** is out with the
changes below — update from **Settings → About → Check Now**.

## Mute your microphone mid-recording

You can now mute yourself in Heizen without stopping the recording. The control
sits beside the microphone selector on the meeting page, in the live assistant —
both the collapsed pill and the expanded toolbar — and in the tray menu as
**Mute Microphone**. All three stay in sync, and the button turns amber while
you are muted.

Muting affects only your microphone: the rest of the call keeps recording and
transcribing. It also does not mute you inside Zoom, Meet, or Teams — other
participants still hear you unless you mute there too.

## File a meeting under a project

A project selector now sits beside the meeting category, on the meeting page and
in the live assistant toolbar. Search for a project by name and the meeting moves
there, so a call that started as a Quick Meet no longer has to stay unfiled.
Meetings assigned this way show up on the project's page like any other.

## Recordings that stop when the call does

When Heizen can confirm the meeting closed, it now asks and then stops on its
own about a minute later — choosing **Keep Recording**, or rejoining the call,
cancels the stop. When the close can't be confirmed, it keeps recording and asks
a minute later instead of ending a call that may still be running.

## A lighter recording

Screen recording now captures at 720p with hardware-accelerated H.264 where the
machine offers it, and delivers that file without a second full re-encode. Live
transcripts are cached instead of rebuilt on every partial, uploads stream from
disk rather than being held in memory, and a duplicate audio encoder was removed
from screen recordings. Long meetings cost noticeably less CPU and memory, and
finish processing sooner.

## Also in this release

- Linux builds now ship for ARM64 as well as x64.
- Notifications dismiss after 20 seconds, including permission errors, which
  used to sit on screen until you acted on them.
