v0.14.1 hotfix
Release v0.14.1
Mar 25, 2026
Remote desktop streaming stability and video quality fixes.
Improved
- Software video encoder tuned for screen content with better compression for typical desktop sharing.
Fixed
- Fixed video corruption and freezing during remote desktop sessions caused by the encoder silently dropping critical video frames.
- Fixed a race condition that could cause remote desktop crashes when switching encoders mid-session.
- Fixed stall detection being bypassed in certain code paths — recovery now triggers faster when video encoding stops responding.
- Fixed video frame parser missing data at the end of each frame, which could cause brief visual glitches.
- Fixed monitor switch causing excessive screen repaints, now rate-limited for smoother transitions.
- Fixed software video encoder failing to load on macOS — added the required code signing entitlement and improved fallback when the download directory isn't writable.
A stability-focused release for remote desktop. The most impactful fix addresses video corruption and freezing that could occur during sessions — critical video data was being silently discarded, causing permanent artifacts or frozen screens. Stall detection is also faster, and encoder switching mid-session is now crash-free. macOS users with the software encoder should see it load correctly now.
