Thanks — these are exactly the kind of reports that help!

1. Previous logo showing briefly

Fixed. When a bumper cleared the logo, the layer was hidden immediately. Due to hardware acceleration, the browser kept the last drawn frame in memory (the colored logo), briefly displaying it again before loading the new one. The logo now fades out cleanly before the layer hides. We reproduced your exact sequence (logo → bumper without logo → different logo) and verified that the old logo no longer flashes.

2. Renaming logos

Added. In the logo designer (Settings → Modules → Logo → Design…), there is now a dedicated Rename button, and creating a New logo will prompt for a name right away. Any cues referencing that logo will update automatically.

3. Video disappearing when minimized

We haven’t been able to reproduce this on our end yet — playback and audio continue normally when minimized during testing. A few quick questions to help us narrow it down:

Does this happen with local video files, or specifically with web sources / YouTube?

Does it occur immediately every time you minimize, or only after the app has been running for a while?

(Note: The upcoming update disables browser hardware acceleration by default, which resolved similar rendering glitches for others. Let us know if the issue persists after updating.)

4. Verification email & friend’s installation

We’re looking into why the verification emails aren’t arriving. Keep in mind that installers downloaded directly from your account dashboard are tied to your license, so her client is currently running under your profile. Once her account is verified, she should reinstall using her own installer.

Could you send a quick email to info@ultimateplayout.com with her registered email address? We’ll locate the account and manually resend/verify it for her.

We will release version 1.1.7 later this week. The fixes are in that release.

Greetings, Frank
