Several Clear-Com gear and a new gear category: Communication

We have added several Clear-Com devices to the default library, including belt packs, transmitters, rack units, and more! To support these new devices, we have also added a new category called communication.

Improvements

  • Added the following library port options:
    • SD-SDI speed
    • RGB/YPbPr signal
    • Word Clock signal
  • Removed the following library port options:
    • World Clock category - All existing World Clock categories have been reset to the Sync category, and the port's signal has been set to Word Clock instead

Default Library Updates

  • Several Clear-Com gear across Arcadia, FreeSpeak, HelixNet, and LQ Series of products
  • Cisco 200 and 300 series of switches
  • Panasonic PT-RZ projector series
  • Yamaha CL audio console series
  • Extron HDXP Plus 1616 switcher

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed some older project files not opening when a new version of the app tries to upgrade those projects to the latest version, while the app was also trying to update any changes from the server since the last time the file was saved
  • Several improvements to opening projects, with better error handling and feedback to the user regarding any issues
  • During a failed project open, the app no longer asks you to save the non-existent project while it is trying to exit the current project
  • In some rare situations, fixed the app still receiving project updates from the server even after the project was closed, and no new project was selected
