Changelog

All notable changes to Stage Timer Pro are documented here.

The format follows Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[1.0.6] - 2026-08-09

Removed

  • Video software integration. The panel offered capture presets for 1920×1080, 1280×720 and 1024×768, plus guidance for OBS and Resolume. It never worked reliably, and a feature that half-works in a live show is worse than one that was never offered — the operator plans around a promise the app cannot keep.

    Gone with it: the set_stage_for_capture and reset_stage_window commands in the Rust shell, and every documentation claim about NDI, DirectShow, virtual cameras and chromakey that the application never actually implemented.

    Capturing the stage window in OBS still works — it is an ordinary window, like any other. It just no longer pretends to be a feature.

[1.0.5] - 2026-08-09

Changed

  • The stage display is now black by default, and the state colour paints the countdown instead of the background. A full-screen wash of saturated green or red on a 65" panel a metre from the speaker's face is punishing to look at for forty minutes. The colour still carries the same information — it just stops being a floodlight. The previous behaviour is one checkbox away: turn off Fondo negro in the branding panel.
  • Cue messages follow the same rule, so the timer and the message always read as one surface.

Fixed

  • A state colour too dark to survive on black — the grey used when the timer is stopped, or a dark brand colour — now falls back to white. Legibility wins over palette fidelity: a countdown nobody can read from the back of the room is worse than one without colour.

Removed

  • website/, an unfinished React landing page for the product. It was never part of the application build. Recoverable from git history.

[1.0.4] - 2026-08-09

Added

  • MIT license. The app is now free and open source for the live event community. It previously shipped an end-user license agreement that reserved all rights, which contradicted the MIT declared in the crate manifest.

Fixed

  • On-screen messages: an expiring message no longer clears a newer one. The timeout that hid a message after its TTL was never cancelled, so sending a short message after a long one — or a message marked as persistent — could see it wiped from the stage display without the operator touching anything.

Changed

  • Version aligned across package.json, tauri.conf.json and Cargo.toml, which previously declared 1.0.3, 1.0.3 and 0.1.0.
  • Build dependencies updated: 9 of 11 reported advisories resolved. The two remaining affect only the Vite development server and never reach a packaged build.
  • Repository cleaned up: 15 internal working notes and empty placeholder documents removed, and the user documentation consolidated under docs/.

[1.0.3] - 2025-08-11

Fixed

  • Global hotkeys conflicted with the Windows keyboard layout switcher. They are now dedicated function keys: F9 start/pause, F10 reset, F11 toggle the stage display full screen.
  • Pressing space while typing a message no longer starts or pauses the timer. Hotkeys are suppressed whenever the focus is in an input, a textarea, or any editable element.
  • A shortcut that fails to register no longer prevents the app from starting. It is reported and the app continues.

Added

  • NSIS installer (.exe) alongside the existing MSI for Windows.
  • unregister_all_shortcuts command, with cleanup when the window closes.

Note. The v1.0.3 release published on 2025-08-11 carried 1.0.2 binaries: the tag was pushed but the code above was never committed. The corrected build ships in v1.0.4.

[1.0.2] - 2025-08-09

First public release with Windows and macOS installers.
