+ | **Minimum System Version** for this release is OSX 10.10 but not all plugins will function properly prior to 10.13. Please start the necessary work to upgrade to at least 10.13 or recommended 10.15 or newer. At some point in the near future it will no longer be possible for me to support anything prior to 10.13 and the video plugins will never work prior to Catalina. | ||

- | Apart from a few older plugins the entirety of the application and it’s plugins now run natively on both Intel and M1 macs. | + | ====9.5.2 Change Log:==== |

+ | * NEW: New option in the Preferences dialog to Dont Stop A Restart With " | ||
+ | * NEW: List windows now display the number of Units in the List as well as the number of Units in an error condition or with low battery messages. This is shown in the title of the window after the List name. | ||

+ | * NEW TEMPORARY: I have made some changes | ||
+ | * NEW: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: Those same Hubitat status messages are now automatically added to a Unit property called “Status Message” and another Unit Property “Status Timestamp” will be the date/time when the current message was received. This way you can trap them in a script, or add a custom column to any List window to show them if you wish rather than just logging them. The above checkbox for logging the status messages does not have to be turned on to send this info to the Unit Properties. This is always done. | ||
+ | * NEW: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: Added support for Ramp Rates to the [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: Added several options to the [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: The CPU Usage figures for plugins | ||
+ | * NEW: The Interface List window also shows a percent of memory use for the plugin instance and any child processes after the CPU Usage number. | ||
+ | * NEW: A new option in the Interface List window lets you chose if the CPU Usage calculation is done based on 100% a single CPU core, or 100% being every CPU available in the machine. So if you have 10 cores and you chose individual then 100% would be using a full core, but per machine that would only be 10% of the overall machine load. Whichever makes more sense to you when viewing it. The numbers are usually very low and so many not show up on the graph at all unless you increase their values by setting it to per CPU. Plugins that are using GPU resources or that are using helper apps may show as using more than 100% if per CPU is selected. This is OK. | ||
+ | * CHANGE: The helper app for the Video system that does the encoding is now a proper background app and so will not show up in the dock as it is running. | ||

+ | * FIX: Fixed some problems with the managed folder system that is used by the new video plugins | ||
+ | * FIX: The managed folder system now recovers from having a volume not present at startup, or if a volume is unmounted and then re-attached. It will let you know if the Volume is unavailable and then will begin scanning it again when it re-appears. | ||
+ | * DEBUG: Added a checkbox to the preferences for “show debug menu” this will reveal a debug menu where I have gathered many of the various hidden debugging options in the app for easier access when it is necessary to gather more info for me on a problem. Please do not experiment with these unless I’ve asked you to as they may generate huge amounts of log output or break other things if used incorrectly. | ||
- | ====9.4.47 Change Log:==== | ||
- | * 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. | ||
