Fix
The background worker stops killing its own processes
On a board short of memory, the background worker no longer kills and restarts its own idle processes, which cost the board time and memory it didn't have. It was the largest single problem in the crash reports Anthias devices send the project.
Fix
Restoring a backup no longer corrupts or locks up the database
Restoring a backup could leave Anthias with a database it couldn't read, or one so locked that the web interface answered with server errors. Backups now hold a single consistent copy of the database, and Anthias starts cleanly on a just-restored or older database.
Fix
Media that takes too long to process no longer stays on Processing
When preparing or downloading an asset runs out of time, Anthias 2026.10.0 marks it Failed with a timeout message instead of leaving it on Processing, and an image over the 50 megapixel limit says to resize it.
Fix
The viewer starts more reliably after restores, slow boots and display restarts
After a restore, a slow first boot or a change to screen rotation, a player could sit on a black screen while the viewer kept failing to start. Anthias 2026.10.0 fixes 4 ways it got stuck, and when the display process does fail, the error now says how it ended.
Fix
Players showing the same playlist drift apart less
An image or web page now rotates when its duration is up, counted from the start of the rotation rather than after the player's own overhead, so screens showing the same playlist stay in step for longer.
