Bugfixes and performance improvements

Connection Tester Wiggle a cable or press on a connector while BusLane watches. It counts every dropout — including brief flickers macOS silently recovers from — and gives you a verdict: Stable, Marginal, or Unstable. Test a cable, a Mac port, or the camera's own port to find which link in the chain is at fault. Stress testing for drives Some faults only appear when the bus is busy. BusLane can push sustained data to a connected drive mid-test and track throughput, flagging links that start fast and collapse under load. Ping Camera Ask a camera directly whether it's reachable — and tell a real hardware fault apart from another app already holding the connection, the usual reason Capture One suddenly stops seeing a body. Webcam mode warning Cameras that connect in webcam (UVC) mode can't tether. BusLane now spots it and tells you. Also: a more reliable menu bar icon that recovers if macOS hides it, fewer false "slow device" alerts from hubs and printers, and a copyable plain-text test report.

Version 1.9 - Fixed false positive slow-speed alerts for printers and USB hubs with built-in card readers - Fixed a rare app hang that could occur when connecting or disconnecting an external display - Fixed an auto-update bug Version 1.8.1 - Fixed a hang on launch, fixed another hang with lots of devices off lots of hubs, other minor bug-fixes and stability improvements Version 1.8 - Tether cable re-class option; identify a device as a tether cable with built-in extensions – usually represented as a Hub - UI improvements in Settings - USB-C power monitoring; on Apple Silicon Macs, the Power tab shows live USB-C port state and wattage along with device power draw where available - New device highlight; newly connected devices glow in the device list in Settings list for a few seconds so you can spot them at a glance and rename as needed - Fixed an app hang when connecting or disconnecting a display - Fixed a crash after wake from sleep – Thanks, Nick! - Backend stability improvements

Version 1.8.1 - Fixed a hang on launch under some circumstances, fixed another hang with lots of devices off lots of hubs, other minor bug-fixes and stability improvements Version 1.8 - Tether cable re-class option; identify a device as a tether cable with built-in extensions – usually represented as a Hub - UI improvements in Settings - USB-C power monitoring; on Apple Silicon Macs, the Power tab shows live USB-C port state and wattage along with device power draw where available - New device highlight; newly connected devices glow in the device list in Settings list for a few seconds so you can spot them at a glance and rename as needed - Fixed an app hang when connecting or disconnecting a display - Fixed a crash after wake from sleep – Thanks, Nick! - Backend stability improvements Version 1.7.1 - Fixed a bug where menu bar icon was unclickable. Thank you, Karl! Version 1.7 - Device renaming; give any connected device a custom name that sticks across reconnections - Device re-classing; re-identify something as a hub, mass storage or camera to have BusLane supervise - Thunderbolt detection; devices connected over Thunderbolt are now identified with a [TB] badge, and the Settings device list shows full connection context (Built-in USB controller, Hub controller) - Volume names – storage devices now show their disk label alongside the hardware name - Camera alerts auto-dismiss; if your camera reconnects, the disconnect alert clears automatically - Minimum speed threshold; set a floor (5, 10, or 20 Gbps) for slow-device alerts so you're only notified when it actually matters - Connection event log – Settings now includes a scrollable history of device connect/disconnect events - Expanded camera detection; improved detection for Hasselblad, Phase One, and Pentax cameras Thank you Travis, James and Max for the feedback!
