---

Version 9.6.6 – 2022/03/14

FEATURES

Common

• Optic properties updates are delayed when manipulated from the UI (ie. While you’re moving a focus slider, the cursor won’t be updated by the camera’s real focus position anymore which eliminates an undesirable “ping-pong” effect between UI and camera),
• Added various system monitoring metrics which can raise yellow and red alerts in the log:
  • CPU load,
  • GPU video decoder load and VRAM usage,
  • Physical RAM pressure and overall RAM usage,
  • Status of LAN connections and availability of internet,

  • Windows uptime,
  • Available space on each fixed drive,
• FreeD settings are now only offered for the few devices actually implementing it,

Version 9.6.5 – 2022/03/01

FEATURES

Common

• Added auto-framing on Sony BRC-H900
• Added ability to power off and back on cameras from the “i” button (top right) in Studio, Radio, Conf, InSitu and Pilot modules
• Communication for input devices is now restricted to their supported communications modes (eg. a Lumens VC-G30 only offers RS-232 while a Spirit Head only offers IP communication)
• When multiple communications modes are possible, IP is now the pre-selected one instead of RS-232
• Spirit devices’ speed and accelerations limits may now be dynamically retrieved when a compatible firmware is used

Studio/Radio/Conf

• Added support for Spirit devices
• Blackmagic Design Ursa’s optic properties are now stored as part of a preset

Conf

• Added a microphone activation policy that only targets the latest person talking. When said person stops talking, it’ll activate the previous person talking (if microphone is still active), or a wide preset.
  Warning: This activation policy only really makes sense when microphone activation is based on a manual trigger to enable it. Dynamic voice detection based on levels will result in an atrocious output.

BUGFIXES

Common

• Correctly implemented Blackmagic Design URSA optic properties
• Fixed invisible “delete input” button in the settings when adding a “Camera” device to a hybrid input
• Fixed some VISCA inquiries which were not considered “complete” when they ended up in an error or a timeout
• Fixed a crash when a Facebook stream dialog is opened and closed without the browser being used

Radio

Conf

• The URI used to specify a Bosch CCS1000D and Dicentis Wireless is now checked for correctness before trying to use it

Pilot

• Fixed Pilot keeping too many web browser connections active
• Fixed a silent error when trying to play a sequence on an input which have had less devices than before (eg. when playing a sequence created using a slider, but where the slider has since been removed)

FEATURES

Common

• Improved stability of communication with Canon CR-N500 and CR-N300 cameras
• Improved “keep alive” implementation on Spirit devices

Radio

• Active DHD variables will now be displayed with a red border in the settings interface

BUGFIXES

Common

• Fixed error when starting a module with a sleeping Canon CR-N500
• Fixed an error that could happen when downloading an image from an RSS titling source
• Improved medialist’s elements’ removal by augmenting the timeout; this should reduce or eliminate the risk of ghost medias remaining due to a failed removal

---

FEATURES

Common

• Added support for Canon CR-N300
• Added key binding to power on/off a camera’s motors
• Added key binding to power on/off all cameras’ motors
• Attempt at working around stucked medias

---

Radio

• Added support for David Systems Digas VR Connection

BUGFIXES

Common

Assist

• Fixed an exception that could happen if clicking at the wrong time at the wrong place in one of the scene’s elements

  This is particularly useful when used with variables to avoid multiple links declarations for which you want the same behavior regardless of the current program’s type.
• Now displays the video path for elements other than music.

API

• Program events and variables are now sent as SignalR notifications (event name: “OnAutomationNotification”.)
• Added REST route to get the current state of all variables: "api/v2/radio/automation/variables".

Radio

• Fixed cloning of links where the target is a scenes list.
• Fixed link’s conditions checkboxes not always being in the expected state
