🚀 Vibeshine Release Notes

✨ Major New Capabilities

🖼 Golden Display Restore (Windows)

If you’ve ever rebooted your PC or signed back in only to find your primary monitor disabled or your display layout scrambled, this feature is for you.

Golden Display Restore lets you save a snapshot of your working Windows display configuration (which screens are on, primary display, resolution, HDR). Sunshine will use this snapshot to restore your setup automatically when Windows forgets it.

• Create/Recreate a snapshot of your current layout.
• Check if a snapshot exists.
• Delete the snapshot if you no longer need it.
  ➡️ Found in Settings → Audio/Video → Display Device Options.

Who should use it: Anyone streaming from Windows who has ever had issues with monitors not coming back correctly after a reboot, sign-in, or service restart.

📊 RTSS Integration (Windows)

For users who run RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS), Vibeshine now integrates directly:

• A new status endpoint exposes RTSS state via the API.
• The web UI includes a Refresh RTSS Status button in Troubleshooting and Display settings.

Why it matters:
RTSS is commonly used to apply frame rate limits. Vibeshine now checks RTSS so you can ensure that the FPS limit matches the requested streaming frame rate.

🛠 Windows Installer Improvements

• Repair UX: At the end of a Repair, users now see a clear message that no reboot is required.
• Uninstall prompts: Confirmations (remove gamepad driver, delete install folder) now only show up when using the full installer UI, not during silent or passive runs.
• Simplified versioning: All MSI builds now report versions as x.y.z.0.
  • This removes quirks with pre-release suffixes and ensures clean upgrades.
• Headless installs via SSH: Vibeshine can now be installed remotely or without UI using:

  msiexec /i Vibeshine.msi /qn

Useful for servers, unattended installs, or automated deployment scripts.

• Upgrade while Moonlight is active: Vibeshine can now safely uninstall and reinstall in a single step during an upgrade.

  • If Moonlight is streaming during the upgrade, the client will be disconnected briefly but can reconnect immediately afterward — no RDP session required.

🎨 Web Interface & Theme

• Buttons across the app are now consistent and accessible:

  • Primary actions → solid primary
  • Destructive actions → solid error
  • Neutral actions → solid default

• New link-like neutral button style for inline actions.

• Pages redesigned for clarity:

  • Applications toolbar simplified.
  • Settings search more readable, with better highlight effects.
  • Dashboard update alerts clearer, release notes easier to toggle.
  • Playnite, RTSS, Troubleshooting, Token Manager: cleaned up and standardized.

Theme improvements:

• Solar (light mode): warm sun-gold/orange accents.
• Lunar (dark mode): cosmic indigo and purple palette.
  Both tuned for contrast (AA+ compliance) with dynamic hover/pressed colors.

⚙️ Backend Improvements

• Display helper now refreshes Explorer/shell after display changes so desktop/taskbar icons resize properly — no more tiny icons after switching monitors.
• Added a 10s grace window after applying display changes to avoid Windows “flapping back” to previous settings.
• If a display apply results in no change, Vibeshine will try restoring the Golden Display Snapshot automatically.

⚠️ Breaking Change

• WiX product version is now always MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.0.

  • If you relied on the old behavior where pre-releases mapped into the revision number, review your upgrade paths.
