📦 v2.5.7 — 2026-07-02
🩹 Stable release v2.5.7
Focused on install reliability, network handling, and legacy Windows support.
✨ New
- VPN / tunnel warning on the main screen when a VPN, proxy, or "secure DNS" adapter is active — a common reason a TV isn't found or an install fails.
- Smarter network scan that skips VPN/tunnel and reserved IP ranges: faster, and no more chasing phantom devices or sending the install through a tunnel.
🔀 Fixes
- Windows 7 downloads: request a modern secure (TLS) connection and tolerate older certificate stores so downloads work on legacy Windows. Best-effort — TLS 1.2 must be enabled in Windows itself. (#415)
- Clearer install errors: a dropped connection ("connection reset by peer") now shows a helpful hint instead of silently retrying, and failures report the real underlying cause.
- Corrupt download recovery: the package is validated and re-downloaded if a previous attempt left it incomplete (fixes "End of Central Directory record could not be found").
- Settings window no longer clips its bottom row, and scrollbars stay visible.
- Main window resizes correctly so nothing gets cut off.
