+A video in Studio preview no longer goes black while playing when the project script hides a layer above it. Exports keep sound and picture in sync when a file starts its streams apart, and the shortcuts panel stays above the player controls.
+
+## Fixes
+
+- **Core:** An element its script hides stays hidden while studio preview plays ([2fbaef6ab](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/2fbaef6abb5207b6f9ef3ba0d94320a6b082fc95), [#5458](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5458)).
+- **Engine:** MP4, MOV and TS exports keep sound and picture in sync when streams start apart ([b211fc7cb](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/b211fc7cb845c6838cbdb1860506c2fda2804787), [#5455](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5455)).
+- **Studio:** Keep the shortcuts panel above the player controls and inside the window ([ba08acb1f](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/ba08acb1f506b06757bd77a7e7f491d412647fbd), [#5457](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5457)).
