Aerial 3.9.9a20

pre-release6 hours ago

💡 Still alpha versions. Near feature complete, but bugs expected. 💡

What's new :

  • Cleanup of settings, moved things around, renamed a few things, should make more sense
  • "My videos" feature is part of the video browser now, it fits better there than in settings.
  • Improved some settings panels so they are more understandable. There's a timeline that shows how long screensaver runs, etc. Removed (most) references to Companion so it gets less confusing. Probably missed some, more cleanup needed
  • Bring back version overlay that took a vacation somwhow. It briefly shows the current version of Aerial when the screensaver starts. If it annoys you, you can disable it in the Overlays settings.
  • Probable fix for "Others" tab in settings not working correctly ? It's also renamed "Auto-updates" to reflect what's inside it (Sparkle settings).
  • More bug fixes.

Known issues/Various gotchas :

  • User made playlist may not stay selected on restart.
  • Automatic downloads are very lazy.
  • Sunset does not show night videos only right now if you have time adaptation selected and no sunset videos, same issue with sunrise. IF you have no video of a given type it will fallback to everything, which is not correct.

After you download the app, move it to your /Applications or ~/Applications folder. Auto updates are provided via Sparkle.

Important :

  • If things don't work, open settings and look at the checklist on top. You should get buttons to resolve issues if any (register/enable). Report issues about this on discord/github.
  • You can start fresh if you encounter issues by deleting /Users/Shared/Aerial
