@BENZOOgataga BENZOOgataga released this 24 May 03:11

Patch release. Auto-update actually works now, and Settings has an About card.

Critical fix

  • Auto-update now detects newer releases. The release workflow installed the latest vpk CLI on every run, which produced an Update.exe whose protocol no longer matched the pinned Velopack NuGet inside the app. WindowsVelopackLocator then failed to initialise on every launch ("not installed or packaged properly"), silently disabling the in-app update check. The workflow now pins vpk --version 0.0.1298 to match the library, so installs from this release onward have a working update flow.
    • Note: existing v0.1.4 / v0.1.5 installs cannot self-update to fix the locator. Reinstall using Tideline-win-Setup.exe from this release once.

Settings -> About

  • App name (brand-aware: shows "Tideline Development" on Debug builds).
  • Version (from AssemblyInformationalVersion, falls back to file version).
  • Build (Debug / Release).
  • Install status (Velopack install vs source / dev build).
  • Update status (Up to date / Checking / Downloading / Update X.Y ready / error).
  • Check for updates button and Open releases page button.

Tray menu

  • The Check for updates row is no longer disabled. Clicking it triggers the same manual update check (bypassing the once-per-session guard).

Requirements

  • Windows 10 1809 or later, or Windows 11, x64
  • Stream Deck app 6.5 or later (for the custom plugin)

Privacy

Local-first SQLite. The Velopack update check is the only outbound network call. No telemetry. No accounts. No cloud sync.
