Videosync 2
2.0.10
May 20, 2025
Additions and improvements
Windows specific
- Moving the playhead with arrow keys now displays the expected frames.
- Playback of video clips remains smoother when performing small jumps on the timeline.
- The "Are you sure you want to quit?" alert window now appears on top of the Main Out window, so in no case it will be hidden behind other windows anymore.
macOS specific
- Arrangement View and Session View: Improved (Warped) video clip playback on Audio Tracks with better synchronization, particularly during tempo changes.
- Session View: Fixed frame jumping when looping or starting/stopping playback.
- Session View: Clip playback is now smoother at non-default speeds.
- For HAP encoded video clips, using Start Time offset will now render expected results.
- HAP encoded video clips are now smoother when played back in the Arrangement View and Session View.
Devices
- Voronoi: Improved performance and reduced GPU usage.
- Status: The log is now empty upon initialization.
- External In: Added a "Rotate" parameter and button to rotate incoming video in steps of 90 degrees.
- Properties: Removed the Channel Type menu. Relevant properties will now only be shown automatically.
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where Videosync devices could sometimes crash Live and/or cause its Follow and Clip View features to act erratically when using Max 8.6.5, the bundled version of Max in Live 12.1.
- Removed udpsend warnings about extra arguments when using Max 9.
- Fixed a bug on macOS that made it impossible to enter Full Screen while the border of the Main Out window was disabled.
- Fixed a bug on Windows that prevented using images in Video Simpler from working as expected.
- Fixed a regression that prevented the Link Main Volume to Opacity setting from working properly.
- Fixed a bug where Simpler would sometimes not display output after the Track/Chain was Muted or had its Track Volume set to -inf dB.
Misc.
- Disabling Spout/Syphon settings now removes Videosync's servers from the list of available servers in other applications.
- Flashing menu items are now synchronized between devices.
- The Plugin SDK now always ships with the latest copies of the same maxpat files that are used in Videosync's native devices.
- Updated the current year number in the Videosync EULA to 2025.
2.0.9
April 3, 2025
Fixes
- Fixed a regression that made it impossible to enter Full Screen on macOS by double clicking in the Main Out window.
- Fixed a regression in Feedback, where the Input Gain parameter would be disabled once Feedback Mix was set to 0.
- Fixed a crash that could occur on Windows when using Lava with certain graphics cards.
- On Windows, the Settings window now remains on top of the Main Out window after enabling Always on Top.
2.0.8
March 9, 2025
Fixes
- Fixed a crash that could occur under some circumstances when using Voronoi on Windows.
2.0.7
March 8, 2025
Fixes
- Fixed a crash that could occur under some circumstances when loading an image in Video Simpler.
2.0.6
March 6, 2025
Additions and improvements
- Devices no longer consume GPU power when left in their default state or when their Dry/Wet parameter is set to 0%.
- Voronoi is now slightly less demanding on the GPU.
- Application GUI elements are now better aligned and no longer have rounded corners.
- Added a "Learn more..." button in the Usage Data section on the General tab of the Settings window, which opens the Privacy Policy page on our website.
- The Measure Color ISF shader was renamed to Measure Utility and now includes beat measuring.
Fixes
- Fixed an issue relating to moving the Arrangement Insert Marker back and forth on the timeline. For example, when moving the Arrangement Insert Marker outside of the bounds of a video clip it was previously in, moving it back to the previous position inside the clip would show a black frame instead the respective frame of the video clip.
- Fixed a bug where changing playback position during playback of a clip could initially display an incorrect frame.
- After loading a Live Set, if the playhead position intersects with a video clip, the correct frame is now displayed as soon as Videosync connects.
- Fixed an issue where Videosync would not receive updated warping data after turning Warp off and on for an auto-warped video file, leading to out-of-sync video playback.
- Fixed a regression where since 2.0.4, the Trial watermark would stay visible permanently. This has now been reverted to periodic appearances. The Trial watermark remains permanently visible in Spout/Syphon outputs.
- Fixed an issue where some parameters of the Blur effect were inaccessible on Ableton Push and other control surfaces.
- Fixed a bug that made the "Edit File" and "Open Enclosing Folder" buttons in the Info Panel of ISF Shader device invisible when using Live 11.
- The Auto Color Tone ISF shader now works as expected.
