This release delivers a major architectural upgrade to 64-bit, a brand-new Event Management experience, a completely redesigned effects and filters system powered by DirectX, and a large number of stability and usability improvements across the entire application.
Event Management
- Added a new Event Management screen that displays all your events with a live preview, capture settings summary, and template thumbnails — making it easier than ever to switch between events or set up a new one
- Added the ability to create, rename, and delete events directly from the Event Management screen without navigating away
- Improved the first-run experience so new users are guided through creating their first event immediately on launch
- Resolved an issue where the Delete and Rename event dialogs could appear behind the Event Management window when running in full screen
Effects & Filters
- Introduced a new GPU-accelerated effects system using DirectX and industry-standard LUT (color look-up table) files, producing more accurate and consistent color results across photos and videos
- Guests can now choose their desired effect before the session begins, with a live preview shown directly on the start screen
- Added support for loading custom LUT files created in Photoshop or other professional tools, so photographers can apply their own signature looks
- Effects are now applied consistently during countdown, live view, and video capture — not just on final photos
- Resolved an issue where a previously selected effect could carry over incorrectly after changing effect settings
Green Screen
- Fixed an issue where green screen backgrounds appeared stretched or cut off on portrait-oriented displays
- Fixed the "Say Cheese" countdown image appearing mirrored when green screen was enabled
- Added the ability to drag and drop a test photo directly onto the green screen settings screen to preview your background without running a full session
- Improved compatibility with machines using integrated Intel graphics where green screen was not functioning correctly
- Added clear error messaging when required DirectX components are unavailable, rather than silently failing
Video
- Added the option to replace the built-in countdown with a custom video clip, configurable under Virtual Attendant settings
- Fixed an issue where video playback on the sharing screen would show a static or distorted image before starting
- Fixed a crash that occurred when processing longer video captures (30 seconds or more)
- Fixed an issue where start screen video audio continued playing after the session was triggered and the video was no longer visible
- Fixed an issue where videos were not uploading to Facebook Pages despite photos, GIFs, and boomerangs uploading successfully
Template Editor
- Added support for all installed font faces and weights (e.g., Roboto Light, Roboto Semi Bold) so the template editor now reflects the full range of fonts available on your computer
Surveys
- Added a scrollable answer list for multiple-choice surveys so all answer options are accessible when there are many choices, and the Next button remains in a fixed position regardless of the number of answers
Performance & Stability
- Upgraded the application to 64-bit, eliminating the memory ceiling that caused "Insufficient Memory" errors when creating large numbers of templates and enabling processing of larger images
- Significantly reduced startup time by skipping redundant database migration checks after the initial upgrade
- Fixed several memory leaks in the Template Editor that occurred when creating or switching between many templates
- Added automatic log file rotation so log files no longer grow unbounded and the "Send Debug Log" feature works reliably
- Fixed a crash that could occur in the network layer when a connected device was unexpectedly disconnected during sharing
- Fixed a crash related to an internal method that could occur in certain configurations
Settings & Configuration
- Added a warning in Settings and at startup when the data directory is located inside a OneDrive-synced folder, which can cause images to disappear or the app to hang during processing
General Fixes
- Fixed a brief flash of the start screen animation appearing before the End Session animation when using Virtual Attendant
- Added the option for After Capture animations to play with single-photo templates, including randomized animations if multiple are uploaded
- Fixed GIF thumbnails on the browse screen appearing stretched when the captured image did not fill a square frame
- Fixed the application window covering the Windows taskbar on launch or restore
