- | **Minimum System Version** for this release is OSX 10.10 but not all plugins may function properly prior to 10.13. Please start the necessary work to upgrade to at least 10.13 for future builds | + | **This is an important update for NGROK users.** This updates the ngrok client |
- | Apart from a few older plugins the entirety of the application and it’s plugins now run natively on both Intel and M1 macs. | + | **Minimum System Version** for this release is OSX 10.10 but not all plugins |
- | NOTE that no database changes | + | **Rosetta Note:** While the entirety of the main app and all more recent plugins are Universal and run natively on Intel or Apple Silicon there are a few older plugins including the W800 and CM11 that are still Intel only. They run fine under Rosetta and you’ll never notice |
- | ====9.4.48 Change Log:==== | + | ====9.5.4 Change Log:==== |
- | * NEW: An entirely new video subsystem is now in alpha testing. It is not feature complete or caught up with the now ancient | + | * The [[supported_hardware:hue|Phillips Hue]] plugin |
- | * **Video Encoder Service** in order to keep each video stream from starting | + | * Fixed a problem |
- | * **RTSP Video** connects | + | * Fixed the error that was logged while trying |
- | * **MJPEG Video** This plugin can connect | + | * The python symlink is now created inside |
- | * **JPEG Refresh Video** There still remain many older cameras that do not support | + | * NEW: Added an option to delay quitting. This will popup a window asking if you really meant to quit, stopping accidental shutdown |
- | * Both web remote plugins have been updated | + | * NEW: Added the option to send a value of 0 for a dimmable Unit to the On script if there is no Off script. Normally |
- | * NEW: SMTP Passthrough Plugin. This is part of the new video support and is in a very alpha state as well. It is not feature complete indeed it cannot even do as it’s name suggests and pass the connection through to another server. If you have a camera | + | * Fixed the incorrect link to the mailing list signup page in the purchase dialog. |
- | * FIX: Lots of fixes to the Hue plugin. There remained | + | * Removed some debug logging I failed |
- | * FIX: A problem with the Hubitat plugin that would cause it to log errors when receiving door lock pin code updates. | + | * There was a change in AppleScript |
- | * FIX: You can now delete items from the web remote interfaces. It was due to a sea change | + | * The Interface list window can now be sorted by CPU Usage, Memory Usage and Process ID. This only works if you have the “show more information” option turned on in the gear menu on the window. This can be a great aide in finding the plugin process |
- | * FIX: Several typos and other should have been obvious but weren’t errors | + | * Updated the [[xtension_manual:ngrok|ngrok client]] version |
- | * NEW: Debug mode for new style plugins (not any of the legacy plugins) is now preserved across restarts, so if there is a problem during the initial loading | + | * I had previously hidden some of the lower level debugging aids in the contextual menus by having people hold the option key while right clicking. There is really no need for this extra step so I removed |
+ | * I added the same debug logging info to the contextual menus of global scripts should | ||
+ | * To that debug output I added another line of info comparing | ||
+ | * There were some significant updates | ||
- | Honestly I cannot overstate how much work the new video subsystem was to get working properly. There will definitely be major changes to the interfaces and everything else but it actually works now for recording and to the web remotes. Please give that a try even though there is not yet any more documentation than this document. | + | ----- |

- | * All plugins that previously used the system install of Python2 have been upgraded to run with the embedded python3 version. This makes the app more easily compatible with the latest MacOS versions that no longer include the older python version by default. This did necessitate many changes to the plugins themselves and while they have been running just fine here and for the beta testers there may still be some gotchas in there. If you experience any issues as your plugins are starting up please copy and paste the log entries of any errors and email them to me. | + | |
- | * Specific list of plugins that were converted: | + | |
- | * W8002 (the new API W800 plugin, the original W800 plugin is still included and was not affected.) | + | |
- | * Arduino | + | |
- | * Barix | + | |
- | * APC Status | + | |
- | * DIY | + | |
- | * Haiku Fans | + | |
- | * iTach | + | |
- | * Max Sonar | + | |
- | * RadioRA2 | + | |
- | * RFX and RFX New plugins (again not affecting the legacy versions of these which are still included and are unchanged) | + | |
- | * pigpio | + | |
- | * FIX: Unrelated to the Python3 conversion several places in the Hue Hub plugin that were throwing errors under some conditions were also fixed. | + | |
- | * The Alexa Sudo plugin now uses a shared connection to the UPNP port so that it can play nice with other plugins that need this connectivity as well. | + | |
- | * FIX: the tpLink/Kasa plugin had some code typos in rarely used error handling that could throw additional errors and fail to output anything useful to debug the error. This is now fixed. Additionally a problem was fixed where if Units existed in XTension for devices that were not initially found on the network they would throw errors during regular polling, this is also fixed. | + | |
- | * NEW: Scheduled Events are now searched from the search window. If you search for a Unit or Script that is referenced in a scheduled event it will show up in the results list now. | + | |
- | * Changes: Several updates were made to the plugin includes to add some extra error debugging and other convenience functions. This should not affect any of the existing plugins but will help to ease some better error handling in the future. | + | |
