1.1.0 beta 18

Scanny does far less work when nothing changes: the idle Wall and CAMERA page redraw nothing, one camera's change redraws only that camera, and the base-station link reads each message once.

IMPROVED 03

• Idle screens stop redrawing

  With nothing changing, the Wall now redraws nothing (it redrew about 45 times a second) and the CAMERA page only ticks its fiber age once a second. One camera's new value redraws that camera's tile only, not every tile and the header. Live values still show the moment they arrive.

• Base-station link reads each message once

  Scanny reads each LPS-1 message straight from its bytes and skips one that is identical to the last, instead of parsing every message from scratch.

  LPS

• Pulsing dots go easy on the Mac

  The LIVE, REC and ON AIR pulses run at 30 frames a second and stop while the window is hidden. They look the same.
