Version 2.2.2 2026-09-09
Changes since 2.2.1
Warning
- Martin Companion 2.2.2 does no longer support the legacy USB to DMX interfaces (M-DMX, Universal USB-DMX and USB Duo DMX).
- Communication with fixtures is only supported via the Martin Companion Cable and RDM over Art-Net (using standard network port on computer).
- Please note that it's highly recommended to connect the Companion Cable to the computer via a powered USB hub (or dock) during the cable firmware update procedure (only required when updating firmware of the cable itself, not when updating firmware of fixtures).
New Features & Improvements
- Fixed Companion Desktop freezing for a very long time during initial startup and cloud synchronization.
- Fixed not auto-updating fixture parameters without doing Refresh Discovery.
- Fixed Latest Firmware column in RDM view.
- Fixed support for firmware upload to multiple different fixture types at the same time (for example VDO Sceptron XB 320mm and 1000mm).
- Now forcing fixture Discovery Refresh in RDM view after fixture firmware update.
- Cancelling out of Stand-Alone programming now reverts fixture(s) to previous settings.
- Improved GDTF parser.
- Now automatically deleting outdated GDTF files.
- No longer crashing when removing previously selected Network Adapter.
- Various user interface fixes and improvements.
