v0.3.1 — Auto-sleep, mic during sleep, Settings page

Highlights

• Microphone during sleep — the Tiny 3 mutes its mics while asleep, so mic-only use (voice chats with the camera off) went silent when it dozed. Settings → Microphone during sleep → On keeps the mic live through sleep. Hardware-verified.
• Auto-sleep timer — Never / 2 / 5 / 10 / 20 min, or "Device" to leave the camera's current setting untouched. Hardware-verified.
• Both settings show a live "device reports" readback straight from the camera — real device state, not just what the app requested — and re-apply automatically on connect and on every wake
• New Settings page — startup preset, return-after-AI-off, sleep-on-exit, auto-sleep and mic-during-sleep now live under Settings; the Presets page is presets-only again

Fixes

• "device reports" text no longer overlaps/squeezes next to the selectors
• Independent code-review round applied (wake-edge re-apply, rescan no longer resets the camera's idle countdown, honest readback reset on unplug)

Install

chmod +x OBSBOT4Linux-x86_64.AppImage
./OBSBOT4Linux-x86_64.AppImage

Hardware-validated on an OBSBOT Tiny 3 (fw 6.6.9.1). To build from source instead, see docs/INSTALL.md.

Bundled SDK notice

This AppImage bundles OBSBOT's proprietary libdev.so SDK for out-of-the-box convenience; the SDK is excluded from the source repository. If you are OBSBOT or object to this distribution, contact vampyren@protonmail.com and it will be removed promptly. Building from source never redistributes the SDK.

Full changelog: v0.2.12...v0.3.1

v0.2.12 — Embedded live preview

Highlights

• Embedded live preview inside the app window — direct V4L2 capture at exact, driver-confirmed modes (1080p30 / 1080p60 / 720p60 / 4K30); external ffplay window kept as a fallback
• Gesture configuration now actually reaches the Tiny 3 (dual config stores + honest device readback); recognition reliability while a control app is attached is tracked in #11, with an experimental opt-in low-traffic mode
• Activity log: selectable text + one-click Copy

Fixes

• FOV selector desync — presets no longer change FOV behind the selector's back
• "Return to preset after AI off" lands reliably (stale-status grace + gimbal settle delay)
• Robust unplug handling (no UI freezes, no CPU spin), visible ghost buttons, 78° mojibake
• Two full independent code-review rounds applied

Version numbers bump on every development round; public releases are cut when a feature branch merges — hence the jump from v0.1.0.

Full changelog: v0.1.0...v0.2.12

v0.1.0 — First public release

Highlights

• First public release: a native Qt 6/QML control console for OBSBOT cameras (Tiny 3)
• PTZ control: hold-to-move joystick with four safety stops + precise arrow nudges
• Zoom (1.0–2.0×) and FOV (Wide / Medium / Narrow)
• AI tracking, face autofocus, gesture toggle
• Image tuning: brightness / contrast / saturation / sharpness
• Three position presets with save / recall / rename, load-on-startup, return-after-AI-off
• External ffplay preview at selectable resolution
• Activity log with real SDK return codes — honest, capability-gated UI throughout
