**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. | **Minimum System Version** for this release is OSX 10.10 but not all plugins will function properly prior to 10.13.

- | ====9.5 Change Log:==== | + | * NEW: [[supported_hardware: |
- | Most of the changes and additions | + | * NEW: [[supported_hardware: |
+ | * 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: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * NEW TEMPORARY: I have made some changes to the standard off handling in the Hubitat that fixes some oddness with enumerated commands. I believe | ||
+ | * 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 | ||
+ | * 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 shown in the Interface List window when “show more information” is selected now includes the CPU usage of any helper apps or sub processes that the plugin might be running. This makes them much more accurate and useful for very CPU intensive plugins such as the Video plugins or the rtlamr or other plugins that use helper apps. | ||
+ | * 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: An [[video: | ||
+ | * FIX: The [[supported_hardware: | ||
+ | * FIX: Older binary plugins such as the Vera plugin would throw errors when trying to issue some unit specific scripting commands. This was due to the changes in the previous version that allowed the scripts to throw applescript errors if you called a handler that did not exist. The older plugins were not registering their handlers in the same way and so fell afoul of this. They will now let you call any of the handlers without an error. | ||
+ | * FIX: Fixed some problems with the managed folder system that is used by the new video plugins for managing disk space on the recording volume. This will now properly keep the minimum disk space you have set available. If you suspect something is going wrong with this there is an option in the new Debug menu (see below) that will let you log it’s progress and calculations to the log which you can then send to me for debugging. | ||
+ | * 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. | ||
- | * NEW: The aforementioned New [[video|Video Subsystem]] | ||
- | * NEW: The aforementioned camera control plugins also discussed in detail at the above link. | ||
- | * NEW: [[supported_hardware: | ||
- | * NEW: SMTP Fake plugin. Runs what looks to a device as an SMTP server that it can try to send an email through. The use is for older cameras or other devices that have the ability to send an email alert but no other way to get alerts from them. Configure the device to try to send an email via this plugin and you’ll get a Unit in XTension that will receive an ON whenever that device connects to the fake server. Note that the interface for it contains fields to attempt a passthrough from there to a real server but this is not working yet. Consider this to be in a beta stage. | ||
- | * NEW: When control clicking on an interface in the list and bringing up the “show floating status window” this now contains a scrolling graph of the CPU usage of the plugin. This is less accurate for plugins that startup other helper apps but can be helpful in finding where all your CPU usage is coming from or if a particular plugin is stuck in some loop or other. | ||
- | * FIX: in the Hubitat plugin that could cause errors when loading door lock pin code fields. | ||
- | * FIX: The Web interfaces can once again delete items from their pages without them re-appearing at the next restart of the plugin. | ||
- | * FIX: Several small fixes to the Kasa/ | ||
- | * FIX: Fix to the Hue Hub plugin so that devices with battery levels report correctly and dont continue to generate traffic constantly after the first update to the battery. | ||
- | * FIX: Several more fixes to the Hue Hub plugin that were causing issues with other sensor types. | ||
- | * Change: Debug mode for non-original plugins is now persistent across enabling of the plugins or rebooting of the device. You can turn debug mode on while the interface is not running and it will log more information during the startup of the interface. | ||
