LumaBooth for iPad, iPhone, Mac LumaBooth for Windows (dslrBooth)
v6.380421.1 April 22, 2021

This is a landmark release for multi-booth operators, introducing cross-device cloud synchronization and a brand-new Asset Manager, alongside significant camera control improvements, a redesigned registration experience, and dozens of stability fixes reported by photographers in the field.

Cloud Sync & Multi-Booth

  • Added the ability to synchronize events, templates, and assets across multiple dslrBooth installations automatically, keeping all your booths in step without manual file transfers
  • Improved reliability when events and settings are shared between two computers on the same network
  • Added storage usage tracking for cloud sync, with clear indicators when you are approaching your plan's limit and easy access to upgrade options
  • Improved the sync status popup with a cleaner layout, proper bold headers, a storage progress bar, and Upgrade and Refresh Plan buttons
  • Fixed an issue where deleting an event from the events list would appear to do nothing
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when receiving event changes broadcast from another booth
  • Improved the first-run experience on a clean installation, guiding you to create an event when none exists yet

Asset Manager

  • Introduced a new Asset Manager — a unified media library for browsing, organizing, and importing green screen backgrounds, GIF overlays, video overlays, virtual attendant videos, digital props, and more, replacing the scattered individual browse dialogs throughout settings
  • Added drag-and-drop support for importing media files directly into the Asset Manager
  • Added the ability to search assets by name and sort by name or date
  • Fixed an issue where assets appeared duplicated five to ten times in the Asset Manager
  • Fixed an issue where custom effects (LUT files) could not be deleted
  • Fixed an issue where assets listed under Digital Props could not be deleted unless Digital Props was enabled
  • Added a confirmation dialog when deleting an asset that is in use by one or more events, listing those events so you can remove the asset from them first
  • Fixed an issue where a newly uploaded asset was not automatically selected after being added to the library
  • Fixed an issue where opening and closing the Asset Manager could leave the settings window unresponsive to clicks

Registration & Account Setup

  • Redesigned the registration and sign-in screens with a clearer flow for creating or linking a fotoshare cloud account
  • Added a streamlined sign-in path for licensed users who need to connect or create a fotoshare account for the first time
  • Improved handling of account transitions — such as upgrading from a demo to a licensed account — so all your assets are correctly carried over to the new account

Camera Settings

  • Added separate camera settings profiles for Photo and Video modes, allowing flash photographers to configure different white balance and exposure values for still captures versus live view, boomerang, and video recording

Filters & Effects

  • Filters now cycle across photos within a session so that each photo in a multi-photo template can receive a different filter automatically, instead of all photos receiving the same one
  • Added the original unfiltered look as an optional selectable filter choice in both settings and guest selection, and removed the previous requirement to select a minimum of two filters

Virtual Attendant

  • Fixed an issue where the start screen virtual attendant video would stop playing after the first session of the night

Templates & Events

  • Favorite templates are now saved per event rather than globally, preventing templates imported or shared from another booth from automatically appearing as favorites in your current event
  • Fixed an issue where the unlock button would disappear in full-screen mode when template selection was enabled, which could require a hard shutdown to regain access to settings
  • Fixed a crash that occurred when template selection was enabled but no templates had been marked as favorites
  • Fixed an issue where the browse button was missing from the start screen when template selection was on, single booth mode was active, and the guest QR code option was off
  • Fixed an issue where the Next button was hidden behind other UI elements at 1280×1024 screen resolution on the template selection screen

Green Screen

  • Fixed an issue where clicking a background thumbnail in manual green screen selection mode had no visible effect when "Don't Apply During Countdown" was also enabled

Sharing & Printing

  • Fixed an issue where the sharing screen on the booth computer would remain open indefinitely if a guest opened an email share on their phone via the guest QR code and then closed their browser without completing it
  • Fixed an issue where selecting more than one copy in the Booth Guest Control app would still only produce a single print
  • Fixed Twitter sharing failures caused by an outdated browser component; authentication now uses the modern Edge-based browser
  • Fixed an issue that could prevent the Facebook login check from succeeding due to a request header conflict with the internet connectivity check
  • Fixed a Booth Guest Control connectivity issue affecting guests on certain mobile carriers — notably some Belgian providers — caused by special characters in the booth identifier being encoded incorrectly
  • Upgraded email-sending infrastructure to the latest Amazon SES authentication standard, ensuring continued email delivery reliability

Stability

  • Fixed a crash that could occur when the application window was activated or deactivated after the computer woke from sleep, by upgrading the UI framework to its latest stable version
  • Fixed a crash that could occur at startup on certain display configurations where an invalid negative value was calculated for the window height
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when canceling a session while the effect-selection screen was being shown after photo capture
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when canceling a session in edge cases where the active template was unexpectedly unavailable
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when tapping the filter navigation arrows before the effect thumbnails had finished loading
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when sending a support log if certain log files did not yet exist
  • Fixed a crash in the internal network communication layer that could occur under specific timing conditions during data transfer

General Improvements

  • Support logs are now processed in the background and uploaded to secure cloud storage, keeping the app fully responsive while your case is submitted
  • Fixed an issue where the application window could not be resized after returning from full-screen Booth Mode
  • Fixed an issue where the boomerang progress circle did not fill completely in the LumaShare mobile view
  • Fixed an issue where event accent colors were not updated on screen when switching between events
  • Fixed an issue where a change to the images data directory was not saved correctly, causing the setting to revert to the previous location after restarting
  • Fixed an issue where the application would crash on startup if the last-used event had been removed; the app now prompts you to select or create an event instead
  • Fixed an issue where entering Booth Mode requested a PIN, when the PIN prompt should only appear when unlocking
