Improvements

• Variant no longer fail to ‘root’. When you're using variants, Sequence now treats the variant you're working in as the primary focus instead of quietly failing and falling back to the root project.
• Transcription starts on the active tab. Starting or retrying transcription uses the transcript tab's project, so jobs are less likely to attach to the wrong row when selection is catching up.
• Cancel transcription more reliably. Canceling now finds the in-flight job.
• Fewer low-signal notifications. Routine metadata probing no longer raises a user notification - Action Center (auto-dismiss) is enough for that kind of background work.
• More dependable audio normalization. GPU-related acceleration is only applied where it actually helps (AAC). Other formats avoid a path that could fail on some files.
• Profanity handling stays consistent. Subtitles on the player, Final Cut Pro XML export, and mute/beep behavior now follow the same rules.
• Canceling normalization cleans up properly. If you cancel normalization, Sequence reverts the project state, refreshes the library view, and clears internal cancel flags so the UI doesn't get out of sync.
