MT556 1.5.0

New Features and Improvements

  • Improved DisplayPort compatibility
  • Show ethernet MAC address in OSD

MT556 1.4.2

MT556 1.3.3

New Features and Improvements

  • Marker tracking improvements
    • Fixed possible identity mismatch for multiple markers when entering/leaving the screen
    • Fix markers being reported when code is not sufficiently well detected
    • Fix marker corners disappearing in OSD when known marker code cannot be read again
    • Improved camera image merging
  • Remove excessive brightness in OSD camera image visualization
