What's improved since launch

MID Pixelmap picked up a full Preproduction Mode — production-ready technical drawings, real panel and rigging libraries, automatic weight and power breakdowns, and undo/redo across the whole workflow — plus merge support for walls built from more than one panel size. Its projector lens calculator grew into a standalone tool of its own, with multi-projector array support and PDF export.

MID Generator's test patterns and timecode tools got a full reorganisation into clearer, collapsible sections, and the countdown timer that started there grew into its own tool — with OSC control, a built-in HTML remote, and NDI® output straight over the network.

MID Sync gained a Version Backup mode for keeping a rolling history of an active show file, live progress with an ETA on large copies, and better handling of empty folders and scheduled runs.

Along the way, the whole suite became one app with a system-tray launcher and global keyboard shortcuts to jump between tools, and its open-source component (FFmpeg) moved to an LGPL-licensed build, with source code available on request.
