1.2.0 of the (Windows) remote client was released today. Below is a list of features. It is recommended that you completely uninstall the existing version and install this new version. This release has numerous code improvements, optimizations and cleanup. We also added a crash reporting utility which will allow you to send a crash report to our servers if the client misbehaves.

1.2.0 can be downloaded from: http://improve.bluec…s/windowsclient

Note: Uninstalling will remove the DVR(s) connections you have saved. Be sure to have the login, password and IP addresses of any server(s) you are using.

Effective with this release configuration files will no longer be overwritten during upgrades unless the database schema changes.
