A New Version of Camo Studio is Available
October 27th, 2020, Camo 1.1.0.110 released
The Software Update message popped up and interrupted my video editing work. What is it?
Camo Studio version 1.1.0.110 is released. This update paves the way for several features which will be enabled with a subsequent update of the Camo iOS app.
Watch my review of Camo webcam in the previous version...
Once the update is installed, I will need to restart any apps using Camo's video on my Mac. If I run into any problems, I can reach out to support@reincubate.com.
They have pushed audio support to 1.2, and they're expecting to ship that hot on the heels of this release. It looks — and sounds — great?... let me test that.
Note for Windows users: Camo Studio for Windows is now in its 8th beta. If you're interested in trying it out, you can get on the list here.
What's new in Camo Studio version 1.1.0.110?
Words from Reincubate:
- Feature Portrait mode preview. Look out for an update coming soon in the App Store to enable this.
- Feature Camo's status menu now shows a list of apps consuming video from Camo.
- Improvement We've reworked the focus UI to make it easier to use, and clearer as to what it's doing. Some lenses don't support manual focus, and the Studio UI now reflects this.
- Improvement We've rearranged how we group controls to make Camo Studio's layout clearer. Collapsed sections stay collapsed.
- Improvement Camo for iOS now indicates camera feature availability, which Camo Studio uses to selectively enable controls.
- Improvement Separate British vs American English translations. We get the "z"s right. This is paving the way for a full translation, coming soon.
- Improvement Scrolling the preview is now smoother for trackpad users.
- Improvement We've added new
-install
and-uninstall
options for command-line users. Usage of these is documented in our FAQ. - Improvement Camo Studio will now detect when the password prompt can be skipped and do so (ie. if you're running with sudo).
- Improvement Default settings are now more sensible for some adjustments.
- Improvement Pan control now uses actual frame aspect ratio (as opposed to the user's selected resolution, which ignored rotation).
- Fix Users of Big Sur are no longer prompted each time for an installation password when running Camo Studio.
- Fix We've resolved several issues with auto-focus.
- Fix We no longer reset the focus when users click on the grey area outside of the preview or the sidebar.
- Fix Stock presets now reset exposure settings.
That's a lot from Reincubate. They are working hard.
When I have time, I will make a review of this update.
