What’s new in version 5.10.1

Updated on Apr 21 2021

Version 5.10.1:
New Features:
  • Added new commands to Layer API Endpoints in the HTTP API: cycleThroughVariantsBackwards, setLiveFirstVariant and setLiveLastVariant
  • Added context menues to the layer input parameter labels to grab some specific HTTP API calls for those parameters
  • Output destinations can be updated via HTTP GET request with an ?update= parameter just like the layers
  • Right clicking on layer parameter labels gives you access to a context menu to copy HTTP API URLs to control individual parameters
  • Added a “Powered by mimoLive” layer
Enhancements:
  • The context menu items “Copy API URL” for buttons and text input fields creating URLs specific for that layer variant
  • The URL produced by the “Copy API URL” context menus for changing a layer value contains the current value now
  • Added a new option to the Split Screen layer to reset the solo mode when going live
Important Bug Fixes:
  • Facebook comments did not show up when anonymised by Facebook. (In order for mimoLive to be able to see author and avatar for the comment, the commenter now needs to have mimoLive added as a “Business Integration” in their Facebook account.)
  • YouTube login failed with some Google accounts. YouTube requires the Google account to have a channel associated in order to be able to log in with mimoLive
  • mimoLive became unresponsive in a rare combination of macOS version and graphics card
  • Placeholder sources weren’t restored in layer settings
  • Split Screen layer behaved incorrectly when switching it live if there was a source in solo mode
  • The Slideshow Source glitched on start
  • The PIP Window layer didn’t apply the dissolve transition for its shadow and had difficulties to switch between variants
  • The Copy-API-URL context menu entries only worked for the layer but not for a specific variant
  • mimoLive occasionally crashed when adding and removing a lot of layer variants
  • Preserve “dumb” quotes in the source code editor text field in the Automation layer making it easier to create Automation scripts
  • mimoLive occasionally crashed when working with Remote Control Surfaces
  • The AV Sync Source generated click sounds
  • The editing of in and out points of movie files with fractional frame rates didn’t work correctly
  • mimoLive crashed occasionally when stopping a live stream
  • mimoLive crashed when clearing the file name field in a File Recording output destination
  • mimoLive crashed sometimes when closing a document and the HTTP server was running
  • Text Source didn’t update when updated via the HTTP API
  • There was an audio drift for USB audio interfaces in combination with the T2 chipset in some Mac models
  • The JSON response for the HTTP API calls was missing data when doing sparse filtering
  • The Slideshow was reset when switching it live in another layer

OK... I will reconnect my 2012 Mac Mini and re-install BoinxTV and will use it just for that. With HDMI I will connect it to my new M1 Mac Mini and it will work as a switcher. Yes I beat the system. no $70 monthly from my pocket. long live old Mac Minis

Evidently this new version doesn't work with OS 10.9.3 on my Mini Mac. I've sent in two crash reports so now we sit back and wait.

A note about the OS requirements: although Lion 10.7 is recommended, actually Boinx TV requires Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to work.

I LOVE this program. BonixTV made the video production world into a very easy-to-use interface that gives users a huge amount of flexibility and creative license. On a personal note, I wish it wasn't so CPU intensive- though- I suppose I could always save up for another computer! In terms of video gear, $200 (or even $500) is almost nothing for the effects this program lets you use- you would be hard pressed to find another live-streaming software that does the same for a similar cost (and even harder pressed to find a hardware solution that does things for even under $1000).

Consistently BOMBING on MacBook 2006-11, 3 GB RAM, 2 MHz Core 2 Duo, 10.7.5. Pulling the .plist files made zero difference. It used to work on this machine! So something has changed. I suspect it is an intolerance for the wimpy Intel graphics. Therefore, I'm moving back a version on this machine.

Follow-Up: I am very appreciative and it was very generous of Boinx Software to be part of the MacHeist bundle. Getting this at a huge discount, it can almost be considered free. I am more than willing to give Boinx air time. I would have a problem if I had paid 199.00 for it. It would be like paying 5000.00 for a Nikon or Canon DSLR and then having "Made by Nikon/Canon" imprinted on every picture or buying cake mix, baking the cake and then having to put "Made by Duncan Hines" on it. You are creating something so the product becomes yours. You bought a tool to do the job, like buying Craftsman tools to construct a table or deck. Did you build it or did Sears. At the beginning of movies you see for eg., ... Pictures, A ... Company, In Association with ... Entertainment. They are partners who invested time and money to produce the film and then share in the profits. For 199.00, Boinx does not invest any time or money in your project but share in the profits in the form of free advertising. If you put the video out for free, the advertising is still there. If there is a bandwidth cost, who is paying or sharing in the expense. Five seconds of air time can become a huge cost if the video became viral. Not everything is hosted on YouTube and the like.

I got this in the MacHeist 3 2009 Bundle. It's got some pretty stiff requirements. OS X 10.5.5, QuickTime 7.5.5 and a Mac without one of those integrated graphics processor. Well.. the software is the easy part. No Boinx for you. It will probably run but no support is provided if the app locks up, crashes or a feature does not work or work properly. For 199.00 it is a "Sponsored Edition". What does it mean, you "have" to promote the company in any of your broadcasts. For 300.00 more (standard edition), then you are "free" from promoting the company. That's the only difference. No change in software functionality. These people are smoking some bad crack. You can advertise all you want on the product I buy but if it is something I produced, there is no way, no how that I am pushing your company. I don't mind too much since it was in a hugely discounted bundle but if I had paid full price... From their site it does not appear the app will "watermark" your broadcast. You do it on your own accord and if you don't, bad karma may float your way. I certainly will not feel guilty after paying 199.00. At least the whole video is not watermarked, a 5 second upfront intro is requested. This leaves the future in doubt. They could add some enhancements or push out a bug fix and sneak in a mandatory advertisement. Since you purchased the sponsored edition, they would tell you that you knew this going in and wash their hands clean of it. No where in the agreement says they can't or won't. A sign of the times. We have advertising on just about everything we buy from cars, computers, TVs, etc. I guess it's just a matter of time before software watermarks anything we create. Something like this however takes away from the result. Would you like to see photographs you have taken of your children or vacation trip plastered with "Made by [camera manufacturer]" on it? If I buy it, advertising comes with the territory. If I create it from a product I bought, absolutely not.
