Warning

Early preview of the new display control system. Some features from the old dual-screen mode may be missing. Please report anything that does not work as expected.

Note

Dual-screen is no longer a separate mode. The single-screen views run on both panels now, with second-display features layered on top.

New Features

  • Multi-screen support for any number of attached screens. Each screen holds a role: Primary for menus, Presentation for what you are looking at, App Screen for launched apps. Built-in screens fill by panel size, external ones by plug order, and you can reassign them in Settings.
  • External monitors show Argosy content rather than a mirror.
  • Send controller input to any screen from the monitor button on the app bar. Screen numbers appear on the screens themselves.
  • Pick which screen a game or app opens on, from the game options menu, the home game menu, or by holding an app in the app bar. Display Target sets the default per platform or per game.
  • Copy a save into any slot and play from it.
  • Managed installers for emulators, with add, variant and remove.
  • Play time and storage breakdowns render on the presentation screen.

Improvements

  • Library validation runs weekly and reclaims a path before dropping a row.
  • Multi-file downloads keep the server's folder layout. New toggle names download folders after the ROM.
  • The file picker shows title, series and tags on their own rows.
  • Preferences parse off the main thread.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix missing cover art for games whose art lives on the server
  • Fix save sync overlooking unsent local saves in named slots
