This release introduces full Sony camera support, a completely redesigned event management experience, LamaBot GlamBot robot arm integration, and a wide range of reliability improvements across sharing, capture, screen editing, and touch input.

Event Management

  • Redesigned the event management screen with a modern card-based layout, making it easier to find, organize, and launch events
  • Added a search bar so you can quickly locate events by name
  • Added sort options to organize events by name or by date last modified
  • Added date-based filters so you can view events from the past week, month, or custom range
  • Each event now shows how long ago it was last edited, so you can quickly identify recent work
  • Added a Select All button and support for Shift- and Ctrl-click to select multiple events at once
  • Improved the batch delete flow with a clearer confirmation dialog; media files are sent to the Recycle Bin when you choose to remove them
  • Restored the behavior of automatically copying the previous event's settings when creating a new event
  • Fixed an issue where launching a session from event management could cause unnecessary screen refreshes
  • Improved portrait-orientation layout on Surface Pro devices so all controls remain visible and usable
  • Fixed an issue where event filters applied the opposite condition from what was selected

LamaBot

  • Added LamaBot settings panel with enable/disable toggle, overlay selection, background music, recommended overlay duration, pack/mount controls, and connection status
  • Added connection management: the app now pings the robot before connecting, automatically handles reconnection, and shows a clear message when the robot needs to be reconnected

  • Added a Browse button on the Pick a Movement screen to review previous sessions
  • Added an Unlock button to the Pick a Movement screen
  • Introduced speed ramp presets for slow-motion LamaBot movements so each move transitions smoothly between fast and slow speeds
  • Updated the movement lineup to include Zoom Out and Left to Center moves, and finalized the recommended movement order
  • Added a preview function that shows the robot's motion path before recording, without triggering a camera recording
  • Improved recording sync so the camera begins capturing at the correct moment relative to robot movement
  • Fixed an issue where the Emergency Stop button did not clear the robot error state correctly
  • Fixed an issue where Record and Preview buttons could be clicked while the robot was still moving to its starting position
  • Fixed the app displaying "Robot Is Ready" when no subscription was active and no robot was connected
  • Added clear guidance and a firmware-version check when the robot controller requires a mode change to work with dslrBooth

  • Hidden LamaBot options in capture settings when there is no active LamaBot subscription
  • Translated all LamaBot interface text into Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, French, and German
  • Fixed performance issues that caused slow startup and event launch times when LamaBot was enabled and the app was installed in Program Files
  • Fixed a memory leak in the Pick a Movement screen caused by video preview elements not being properly released

Sharing & Cloud

  • Switched media and log uploads from Amazon S3 to Backblaze B2, improving upload reliability and performance
  • Added an Upload Original Photos option (enabled by default) that automatically uploads captured photos to fotoShare Cloud for display alongside other session content
  • Fixed an issue where emails sent immediately after a long video session would not link to the fotoShare gallery because the upload had not yet completed
  • Fixed an issue where shares did not appear in fotoshare.co after being sent
  • Fixed the sharing status screen showing "Success" for items that had been cancelled — cancelled items now correctly show "Cancelled"
  • Fixed pending uploads not appearing in the Sharing Status screen until the Uploads section was manually expanded
  • Fixed an issue where logging out was not triggered when a user changed their fotoshare.co password, which caused uploads and the sharing cloud icon to stop working silently
  • Fixed email shares not appearing in fotoshare.co when the email body contained very long HTML content
  • Custom sharing screen button images now sync correctly to other booths
  • Fixed an issue where custom button images on the sharing screen reverted to default icons when unrelated sharing options were toggled
  • Added EventID and hexadecimal UserID to the LumaShare web service session list to support cross-device gallery access
  • Added support for the Print Test Page button triggered from the LumaShare mobile app

Capture & Sessions

  • Fixed GIF not being generated during print sessions when "Also Generate GIF" was enabled

Subscription & Account

  • Fixed unnecessary subscription recheck errors appearing for users at events with no internet connection by improving email case-sensitivity handling in the subscription cache
  • Added a notification message thanking users after a subscription is confirmed active
