This release brings major printing enhancements, green screen and boomerang improvements, better sharing and social media options, and a range of stability fixes that keep your events running smoothly.
Printing
- Added support for a secondary printer, allowing specific templates to print to an alternate printer — ideal for 2x6 strip cuts alongside full-size prints
- Added a "Print to Both Printers" option to automatically alternate print jobs between two printers
- The Template Editor's Print Test Copy button now prints to whichever printer the template is configured to use
- Print counts per event now persist across app restarts, so the event maximum is enforced even if the app is restarted mid-event
- The print button is now hidden once the event-wide maximum number of prints is reached, not just the per-session limit
- Added a maximum copies setting for the print confirmation window
- Reprint counts from the browse screen are now tracked correctly against the per-session print limit
Green Screen & Boomerang
- Resolved an issue where green screen replacement was not applied during boomerang sessions when "Do Not Apply During Countdown" was enabled
- Significantly improved performance when using green screen backgrounds and overlays with boomerang, eliminating lag and choppiness
- Fixed a problem that prevented digital props from being saved when used together with green screen on 32-bit systems
Camera Support
- Resolved a compatibility issue with Nikon D7500 and D7100/D7200 cameras where the app incorrectly required a RAW+JPEG setting, blocking the session from starting
- Fixed an issue where video recording on Canon T6 (EOS 1300D) would stop working after several sessions, requiring a camera restart
Video & Sharing
- Videos are now uploaded directly to your cloud gallery instead of YouTube, matching how animated GIFs and other media are handled
- Added an overlay/watermark option under Effects that stamps each individual shared photo with your logo or branding without affecting prints or GIFs
- SMS and email messages now use the content and album that were set at the time the message was queued, rather than whatever is currently configured
- Removed the pre-written message field from Facebook Page sharing, as Facebook no longer permits pre-populated post text
- Removed VK as a sharing destination
Session Flow
- Fixed an issue where the start screen animation would fail to appear after the end-of-session video finished, briefly showing the last photo instead
- Resolved an app freeze that occurred when pressing the Done button after a session
- Fixed an issue where email tags such as
{image} appeared as literal text in single-image share emails
Template Editor
- Shapes added in the template editor now default to a white fill color for better visibility
Effects Screen
- The Next button on the Effects selection screen is now positioned correctly on vertical/portrait-orientation displays
Stability & Performance
- dslrBooth now runs at above-normal process priority, reducing intermittent lag during countdowns and photo display caused by background system activity
- Fixed an issue where original photos were not archived if the originals folder had been deleted or was missing
- Added a note in settings regarding Windows 10 version 1803 and the edge-swipe behavior that can expose the desktop during a session
Licensing
- The app now enforces a two-computer activation limit per license, alerting you and providing a link to deactivate an existing computer at fotoshare.co if the limit is reached
