What’s new in version 5.10.1

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).
