Version 2.1.5:
Fixes
A number of stability improvements.
Fixed a bug causing iShowU to crash sometimes during resume of movies.
Fixed bug where sometimes the background QT process wouldn't start up, so thumbnailing would not occur.
Fixed a bug whereby the UI would appear to hang if you deleted a recording mid-resume.
Additional fix to resume that was causing a crash in some edge cases.
Fixed bug where you could not ctrl-drag the movie link from iShowU immediately after publishing. Now as soon as the link appears, you can.
Fixed artifacts that could appear in Low CPU mode if the capture area was set to Fixed and exactly the same size as the underlying area being updated (case in point: capturing the inside area of the iOS simulator).
Fixed choppy capture - rate smoothing is now … smooth!
Fixed regression where the upload progress bar wouldn't go away after the upload completed.
Fixed issue where a capture could sometimes not be stopped.
A number of performance and stability enhancements (background QT server). Getting ready for 2.2.0 release.
Fixed issue that could cause a crash on startup.
Fixed performance issue with 70+ items in the recordings view.
The recording of Keyboard keystrokes is more sensible, and has options to record mouse clicks and also further/expanded control/modifier keys.
Fixed regression whereby presets were not created on new install.
Fixed issue with smart naming of recordings under Leopard.
Fixed issue with publishing names and naming of files under Leopard.
Finally found and fixed the bug causing HD to crash when you unplug devices (USB mics, etc).
Fixed various problems/regressions under 10.5.8 (especially related to PPC machines).
Fixed muxing of audio into 2ch (for various upload services).
Fixed Drag&Drop into the Sequence panel for Final Cut. If this is a problem for you, please go into General prefs for iShowU and disable the "Allow Control+Drag for movies" option.
Now saves presets on Quit (regression).
OCP fix - the correct URL is now available for dragging from the OCP manager if you change the title before the upload is complete.
Preset editor column sorting now stored, and correct default applied.
Resolved issue (2nd time) with warning message ("no active renderers") when waking from sleep.
Fixed issues with Preset Editor (headers now sort correctly, duplication of presets now also copies video settings).
Resolved a number of issues that could cause crashes.
Major Thumbnail Rewrite: Due to excessive instability with QuickTime, the thumbnailer has been removed and put into another process.
Fixed issue where resizing the window while recording could sometimes cause the recording to stop (especially noticeable in 10.5).
Fixed bug in countdown timer that could cause a crash if you did a retake while counting down.
Undo now works for deleting watermarks.
Resolving issues related to the preview, switching between screens, and changing monitor configurations.
Fixed the Presets editor so it doesn't do "weird stuff" when duplicating presets, and renaming presets.
Additional safety and locking in Recording layers and Media Checkpointer.
Added additional safety to the MouseCompositor, addressing issues with changing mouse cursors in CS5 (again, I don't have CS5 so cannot test).
Placed additional locking around audio shutdown (hopefully fixes issues with MOTU devices - I don't have one so I can't verify).
Fixes to QuickLook under Snow Leopard.
Fixed issue in Disk Stage of Low CPU mode.
Fixed bug starting HD on 10.5.x systems that'd cause a failure upon startup.
Further locking fixes within audio, and some further tidy up's after thumbnailing.
Cleanups in the thumbnail renderer, lots of additional locking, much work around making capture lifecycle more robust.
Fixing registration system.
Fixed a serious problem that could cause out of memory errors and bad recordings.
Fixed the problem where compressing would never end.
Fixed color correction for Low CPU recordings.
Fixed recording in mono, so that it works correctly with other (non QT) players and also when uploaded to YouTube.
Sound recording is now more resilient if the sound source is interrupted often (as can be the case with digital inputs). A side effect is that recording will be more resilient under wider load situations.
Fixed issue with audio where devices with different sample rates could result in glitches when recording.
Changes
Allow a user to change their One-Click publishing name (via the Menu in the OCP manager).
Easily edit the title/description when publishing. Enabled by default, can be turned off in prefs.
The recording list of HD and that of the One Click Publishing management window are now synchronized by default.
One-Click Publishing (Learn more here).
By default, movies are now named according to the window / document that you hover over most during recording.
Upgrades to registration system.
Capture is now automatically paused / resumed when the machine is put to sleep / woken up.
You can now toggle on/off the preview window.
Implemented ability to mix audio into 2ch AAC before uploading to YouTube.
Undo is now working.
Readers of iCreate magazine can now use version 2.1.5 as well as version 2.1.4.
Drastically improved performance within the video bar (no longer crashes with 150+ recordings either) and fixed various selection problems.
A few missing localized resources were found and added.
A check is made for accelerated renderers before the app begins. This prevents needless an unhelpful crashes if you've no display connected.
There is now an option in preferences that disables "sleep" while Low CPU mode is compressing a video (so you can ensure your machine doesn't go to sleep while it's compressing, but does after it's done)
Added Undo functionality to the video bar when deleting videos. It'll now move them back from the trash if that is where they were put (or just put them back into the video bar, if you didn't move them to the trash).
Added Abort option to the status menu, and Edit menus. The dialog now no longer pops up if you are holding the shift key at the time you choose to abort (this mimics the behavior of iShowU v1).
Added option to edit the capture area to the Edit menu.
The Upload dialog now remembers it's state (title, description, keywords and last chosen category).
