Shield Optimizer v2-0.1.0-beta.6

on GitHub

Fixed

• Display Scaling now works. Clicking Shield 4K / 1080p failed silently with
  "unknown variant uhd_4k" — the frontend and backend disagreed on the preset
  names. Fixed the mismatch so the presets apply.
• Correct Shield 4K scaling values (#24). The 4K preset is now
  3839×2160 @ density 640 (was 3840×2160 @ 540). Shield TV rejects a 3840
  width, and density 540 broke some app menus (Disney+, HBO). Applied to both
  the v2 app and the v1 PowerShell script.
• "Open folder" on the Snapshots page works. It used an open_path call the
  app wasn't permitted to make; it now reveals the snapshot folder in the system
  file manager (and the folder is created up front so it works before your first
  snapshot).

Added

• Light-theme gallery in the README alongside the dark one, and the
  screenshot pipeline now captures both themes.

First-run warnings

These builds are unsigned. Your OS may complain on first launch:

• macOS (Gatekeeper): the first-launch dialog on macOS 15+ only offers "Move to Trash" or "Done" — click Done, then either:
  • Terminal: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Shield Optimizer.app" (one-time, then double-click as normal)
  • GUI: System Settings → Privacy & Security → scroll to the "Shield Optimizer was blocked" message → Open Anyway → enter password
• Windows (SmartScreen): "More info" → "Run anyway".
• Linux: chmod +x ShieldOptimizer*.AppImage before running.

See the v2 README for setup and feature docs.
