  • Fix: Clean images directory handles new images storage in FW2.9.0 and later.

Some of these need some more explanation.

Firmware check and download

When this is turned on, the it will check for a firmware update once a day when the device is connected. The check uses the devices information to check for the firmware. But, there is a "early adopters" option to check using a different affiliate. This may report firmware is available earlier than with the devices option.

If a firmware update is found, you will be prompted with the version and whether to download it. When the download is complete, you will be prompted again about keeping the update and disconnecting to apply the update.

Finally, if update files are found when the device is connected, you will be prompted whether to keep these or not. If you choose not to keep the files, they will be removed.

The firmware check can also be started from the plugin menu.
