- Game image builds: the read-back check is no longer the slow part. After writing an
.exfat image the engine reads it back and hash-checks every file. The exFAT reader fetched
one 64 KiB cluster per read and, for a big file, walked its chain from the start on every
read, so the check crawled on fast drives. It now keeps the FAT in memory, continues where
the last read stopped and reads whole runs of clusters in one call, and hashing uses every
core. Measured on a 10 GB image in cache: 169 MiB/s before, 3.7 GiB/s after. Convert has a
new read-back check, per read choice (1 to 32 MiB) for anyone whose disk prefers a
different size; 8 MiB measured fastest and is the default. The check itself is unchanged. - The game page is lighter. The Overview card that repeated the hero (title id, name,
size, path) is gone: the path, last played and Screenshots & clips now sit in the hero. Each
copy on your drives is one compact row: its facts on one line, the path under it, the one
action most people want (Send to PS5 or Install) as a button and the rest (copy path, copy
install link, Convert, show in file manager, move to Trash) behind a ⋯ menu. - 7z uploads: a damaged archive stops instead of retrying (#446). When the LZMA decoder
gives up on a cut-short or corrupt stream ("dist overflow"), the job used to fail as if the
connection had dropped, so the queue retried it again and again, decoding the same bytes to
the same end. It is now a corrupt-archive failure that names the entry and how far into it
the decoder got, and asks you to test the archive with 7-Zip before trying again. The
archive in the report was not available to us; if yours passes 7-Zip's test and still fails,
say so on the issue. - Console to console: choose the route and the address (#444). Send to another console…
has a Change… link under the route note: Auto (as before), Direct only (never
through this device, for a phone on mobile data; if the consoles cannot connect the send
fails and says why) or Through this device. With Auto or Direct only you can also give
the address the sending console dials to reach the other one, for setups where the address
this device uses is not the one the consoles use between themselves: with ps5-tailscale, a
local forward on the sending console (127.0.0.1:19120 → the other console:9120). The choice
is remembered per pair of consoles. The consoles' keys and the one-time ticket still decide
who may send, not the address. Taking over a running send from another device, and a
"test direct connection" button, are not in this release.
