Releases: smithplus/Osmotic

Osmotic 0.3.0

Choose a tag to compare

@smithplus smithplus released this 15 Sep 22:35

Safer around the camera, easier to find your way, and a new look for the lights. Updating from 0.2.0 happens inside the app; macOS asks for its permissions once more because this build is not notarized yet.

Added

  • A Settings key on the top plate, next to Bluetooth and in the library beside Disconnect.
  • A user guide (docs/GUIDE.md), which the Help menu now opens: every screen, the keyboard shortcuts and what to try when something fails.
  • Settings › Credits names the maker and links a way to support the work.

Security

  • Sizes stated by the camera's web server are bounded, and small reads (thumbnails, preview stills) are capped: a device answering at the camera's address could otherwise crash the app or make it buffer without end.
  • Quitting waits for Wi-Fi work still running (a Cancel or Disconnect handing the network back), and downloads can't start while Live is starting.

Changed

  • New app icon: the wordmark's "o." (a lowercase o and the orange dot) on a graphite plate.
  • LEDs look like panel lamps: a domed lens in its bezel, with a halo on the plate when lit.
  • Day folders are on by default.
  • Orange keys are a shade darker so their white text stays readable (WCAG AA).
  • VoiceOver: the LCD readouts read as one, progress meters report their value, and Connect and Download Day keys say which camera or day.
  • Notices say what to do next; Spanish follows Latin American macOS ("la Mac", "Configuración del Sistema").
  • The wordmark lines up with the panels below it, its dot on the baseline like a period.
  • Thumbnails already decoded show at once when the grid redraws, instead of blinking in again.

Website and docs

  • A landing page at https://smithplus.github.io/Osmotic/: static HTML and CSS in the app's style, with a looping video of a whole session drawn by the app itself, a Live video, install steps, a comparison and an FAQ.
  • README and project docs are in English only (the app itself stays in English and Spanish).

Osmotic 0.2.0

Choose a tag to compare

@smithplus smithplus released this 15 Sep 06:10

Download your DJI Osmo footage to your Mac over Wi-Fi, control the camera and watch it live, or use it as a USB webcam. Native, universal (Apple silicon + Intel), macOS 15 or later.

Install

  1. Download Osmotic-0.2.0.dmg below, open it and drag Osmotic onto Applications.
  2. The first time you open it, macOS says it can't verify the app — this build isn't notarized yet. Go to System Settings › Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
  3. Turn on the camera and click Connect.

Later versions install themselves (Osmotic › Check for Updates…). Osmotic-0.2.0.zip and its .sig are for the in-app updater.

What's new

  • Files · Live · Webcam. Live: start/stop recording, photo, modes (Video, Photo, Slow-mo, Low Light) and a live picture over Wi-Fi. Webcam: the camera over USB-C.
  • Tested with an Osmo Pocket 3: connect, list, download (~33 MB/s, resumable), live view, recording and mode changes.
  • A dark hardware-style interface, in English and Spanish; VoiceOver and Reduce Motion.
  • Updates from GitHub Releases, installed only if their Ed25519 signature matches.
  • Clips over 4 GB now show their real size, progress and time left.
  • Security: untrusted file names from the camera can't escape the download folder; a camera Wi-Fi password you type goes to the Keychain; downloads are only complete when every byte arrived.

Built on Osmosis by Konrad Iturbe and Kaze for DJI by Brian Merchant — full credits in the README. Not affiliated with DJI.
