FIXES
Customer Issues
- Addressed issue where DNX Specification 2.0 DNxHD 36 would not open
- Addressed an issue with CEA 608 and CEA 708 captions not being shown in the Switch Inspector
- Addressed an issue with collecting support information on MacOS. The System Profile support information is now gathered in a file called “SystemProfile.spx” on MacOS systems.
- Addressed an issue with OP47 436M Teletext not being displayed in Switch.
- Disabled sync correction in the MPEG-1 system and MPEG-2 transport stream and program stream container readers. This avoids insertion of black frames to fill gaps, overlaps and discontinuities in the timestamps in the file. Please note that files with timestamp gaps/discontinuities in the video may result in AV sync issues
- Improved external playout via AJA Kona and Blackmagic cards to no longer downscale 4K/2K files to 1080p on Mac.
NOTE: The ARM version of Switch will not be able to decode Cineform because the open source project has not been ported to ARM.
Any Switch user who needs to be able to play Cineform video on ARM Macs will need to quit Switch, and relaunch it using Rosela in order to view the file.
