Version 10 -Star ratings — rate markers, cuts, imports and drawings from 1 to 5 stars. Tap the star for a quick one-star favourite, or hold for the full picker. Ratings on markers sync to Piston Server and show on every cut made from them. - Filter and sort by stars — tap the favourites button to see only starred items, or hold it to filter by specific star counts. Sort the cut archive by star rating. - Keep Stars Private — new setting to keep your ratings on-device only, shown as a blue star alongside the team's server ratings. - Rate clips directly from the Composer. - Importer markers are now detected via the server's clip_synced flag, so auto-cutting keeps working even if the importer account changes. - Fixed favourites occasionally un-favouriting on a second tap, and the marker list and cut archive disagreeing on what's starred. - General cleanup and performance improvements.

Version 9.9 -- Customisable tap controls -- - The on-video tap grid is now fully configurable in Settings → Tap Controls. - Choose the grid shape — from a single full-screen cell up to 3 × 3 — and assign an action to each cell. - Separate layouts for live sessions and for clip playback. - Actions include play/pause, jump to live, slow motion, forward/backward stepping, cut mode, loop, show/hide controls, markup list, and custom markers. - Cells can carry a separate press-and-hold action, and scrub actions can be pointed at either the cut in or cut out point. - One-tap presets: Default, Lightweight Markup, and Minimal, plus Reset Defaults. - Live preview in settings uses the real overlay, so what you configure is exactly what you get. - Custom marker cells create a marker directly — name, colour, note prompt, time offset and auto-cut — without opening the markup list. -- Trim your cuts -- - New trim editor for any cut: drag in/out handles on a filmstrip of the whole clip, set points from the playhead, or nudge frame by frame. - Trimming is non-destructive — nothing is thrown away, and resetting the handles brings the whole clip back. - Quick trims straight from the player: "Trim to here" for the start or end without opening the editor (scissors button on iPad/Mac, portrait menu on iPhone). - A trim applies to every angle of a cut at once, so multi-camera angles stay in sync. - Trims are respected everywhere the clip is used — playback, merging, composer clips, exports and Amplify uploads all honour them. - "Apply Permanently" writes the trimmed range out as a new clip in the archive, leaving the original footage untouched. - Trimmed clips are marked with a scissors badge in the archive and show their real start/end times; the playback scrubber hatches out the trimmed head and tail and shows the trimmed length. - Trim available from the archive via long-press or the action sheet.

Piston 9.0 Split-Screen Multi-Angle Video Playback and Angle Offsets New Features: Introducing split-screen video playback! - Tap the Split Layout Setup option in the left sidebar to choose how to divide your video screen. You can use the provided layouts or tap each pane to select which video angle should be displayed in that pane. - To return to the single-video player, tap the grid icon (which replaces the left sidebar icon) to open the Split Layout Setup window and re-select a single-pane layout or a different split layout. - Tapping the full-screen icon in the corner of a pane temporarily makes that angle full screen. Pinch and zoom on individual panes, then pan by dragging with a single finger. - The split-screen state is remembered per device when entering and leaving sessions. Adjusting video offsets in split-screen view: - Access the offsets feature from the dropdown menu in the top-right corner by selecting Split Screen Offsets, or by long-pressing the offsets button (grid icon) in the toolbar. - Use the + and - buttons in each pane to move the video forward or backward relative to the main angle, then tap Save in the main pane to apply changes. - Offsets are remembered per device when re-entering sessions.

Pinch and zoom on Piston MacOS: - Added pinch-to-zoom functionality in the video player on MacOS devices using the trackpad. Recover Missing Cuts: - Added a Recover Missing Cuts button in the Subscribe to Cuts dropdown menu. This checks for partially downloaded Cuts that are missing angles due to network issues. If any are found, the device requests the server to re-cut and re-download the missing angles. For non-private Cuts, this check runs automatically every 60 seconds, comparing differences between the server and the device. Since Private Cuts are automatically deleted upon completion, you must tap Recover Missing Cuts to fix any corrupted Private Cuts. Improvements: Significant AV Foundation code rewrites have been conducted across multiple areas of Piston to ensure future compatibility with upcoming iOS changes.

Version 8.31 Bug Fix - Resolved a memory leak issue that created ghost folders on the server and impacted app performance.

Version 8.3 NEW FEATURES - Named Cuts Export: Added the ability to name the Cuts file upon export numerically based on either Cut timestamps chronologically within the session timeline, a reflection of the sorting option within the cuts list, or timestamps chronologically from within only the selected cuts. - Subscribe to Cuts: Allows users to select all or particular users within a session and download the Cuts they are sending to the server, provided the user does not have 'Private Cuts' enabled. - Cut Ownership: The User who creates a cut is now the master of that Cut. If 'Private Cuts' is turned off, that cut will be sent to the server and can be downloaded by other users. If the creator deletes the cut from their device, it will be removed from the server and subsequently from all other subscribed users' devices upon the next server check. - Re-download Deleted Server Cuts: Added a re-download deleted server cuts option to the settings menu, allowing users to re-download all cuts that still exist on the server that may have been deleted from the local device. - Force Server Check: Added a force download/check for all server cuts to skip waiting for the sixty-second loop. IMPROVEMENTS - Super User Role: Added a new 'Super' user type, with maximum server access settings. 'Admin' can now stop/start sessions and edit markups but not shut down/restart the server or edit camera profiles. 'Analyst' can mark and cut but cannot perform any server administration. 'Viewer' permissions are unchanged. - Unified Cut Export Naming: Aligned naming protocols for Cut exports when shared via the Cuts list or within the Cut player. - Optimized API Calls: Improved API calls to the server to streamline data being pulled over the network. - Settings UI Redesign: Re-designed UI for the Settings menu within the session player. - Cut Info Card Update: Added the name of the User who made the cut to the info card on the Cut. This will display Private if made on the local device and not shared to the server. BUG FIXES - Fixed bug where users could not open the info bar on cuts after filtering. - Fixed bug where tapping out of the localization finalization menu did not continue localization. - Fixed bug where navigating between partial/local and server sessions would break the jump to server session icon. - Fixed bug where localization would stop and hang if the device went into sleep mode. - Fixed bug where localization would, in some scenarios, show the option to finalize even though the session was still live. - Fixed bug where a session that had one angle longer than the others would never be able to be fully localized. - Fixed bug where changing servers from one server with a license expiry warning to one without would still display the warning incorrectly.

Version 8.2.1 - Corrected the misalignment of playback controller icons in the main session view's UI layout when toggling the left sidebar.

Version 8.2 In this update, we've introduced new features and improvements, alongside resolving several bugs to enhance your experience. New Features: - A Skip button is now available at the bottom of each Qualifier list, allowing users to proceed directly to the confirmation page, bypassing remaining lists. - A global 'Qualifier Auto Finish' setting has been added to the settings dropdown menu. When activated, it automatically finalizes the qualifiers entered upon the selection of the last list and omits the confirmation page. Improvements: - Functionality to delete partially downloaded angle segments has been introduced, applicable when localizing for a specific angle is deactivated. - The session response mechanism has been enhanced for auto-localizing server sessions. The localize icon now turns green once all segments are downloaded, eliminating the need for the localize menu pop-up to appear. Session finalization is achieved through selecting 'Finalise' from the localize dropdown menu. - The settings menu now includes options to set video quality and bitrate for encoding when editing local session content. - A progress spinning wheel is now displayed during the import of large videos into the Composer, improving user feedback. - A pop-up warning will alert users if the app fails to detect a license, advising an update of the server and contact with fulcrum for assistance. Bug Fixes: - The transparency level of the background in the Share Local Session pop-up has been adjusted. - Resolved an issue where the 'N' keyboard shortcut for Note would navigate to the end of the session in a partial session setting, provided 'Resume State after Marker' was set to 'Live'.

Version 8.1 (Build 697) What’s New: License Expiry Warnings: We’ve introduced notifications for license expiry on updated servers, ensuring you stay informed ahead of time. Enhanced AirDrop Support: Piston Local Sessions and Composers can now be seamlessly opened via AirDrop. Simply press 'Share' and select the Piston app icon to get started. This update is designed to enhance your user experience with timely notifications and improved file sharing capabilities. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we encourage you to let us know how these changes work out for you.
