What’s New in This Version
Major update: first pass for H.265 support is here.
Sandar now includes an initial implementation for H.265 camera streams, with smarter playback handling and fallback behavior designed for real-world mixed-camera setups.
Also major in this release: Active Events to Top.
You can now prioritize cameras with active detections so important activity is surfaced first, while still falling back to your configured camera order when activity clears.
Additional improvements in this version:
• Improved stream startup and recovery to avoid black-screen dead ends.
• Better on-screen connection status messaging during load, retry, and fallback.
• Faster failure detection for streams that report “ready” but never render video frames.
• Automatic fallback path improvements (main → sub/snapshot) when a stream is not playable.
• Better handling for non-16:9 cameras (like doorbells) with proper letterboxing/pillarboxing.
• Top header controls now auto-hide when idle and reappear on remote movement.
• Stability hardening in camera reorder and event parsing paths.
