Fifth Apple Silicon release.

  • Pixelview admin can control the Sending side of a paired Mac: choose the capture device and its DeckLink input settings, frame rate, encoder, bitrate, profile and mute, and start or stop the stream. The Mac's state appears live in admin.
  • The Mac always stays online and ready to stream. Starting without a project in admin no longer takes it offline until a restart; the stream simply fails and Start works again right away.
  • When Pixelview stops the streaming server (the project is deleted in admin, or the server shuts down after a long time without viewers), the stream stops quietly with a short note instead of an error box.
  • The DeckLink output no longer starts at launch. Its AutoStart applies to receiving only, so another application such as DaVinci Resolve can keep using the card while this Mac sends.
  • Receiving HDR: choose SDR, HDR PQ or HDR HLG to match the sender; the canvas and the DeckLink output follow it.
  • Unpairing from this Mac also removes it from your Pixelview account, and unpairing it in admin finishes the unpair on the Mac without a prompt.
  • Stop receiving now closes the viewer session on Pixelview right away.
  • Quitting while an error box is open no longer crashes the app.
  • The installer DMG opens with a laid-out window: drag Pixelview Desktop to Applications.
