DisplayCAL 3.8.9.2 released

Fixed in this release:

  • [Minor] When previous instance was force quit, override leftover lockfile.
  • [Trivial] When using a custom profiling testchart with very few or no dark RGB gray patches, try to better maintain slope of existing points during shaper curve generation.

DisplayCAL 3.8.9.1 released

Changed in this release:

  • [Enhancement] Show the instrument serial number (if available) when prompting to physically interact with the instrument.
  • [Enhancement] Check SpyderX dark offset calibration and abort if it is too high (user error).
  • [Enhancement] Adjust perceptual device to PCS table black point to match perceptual PCS to device table.
  • [Enhancement] Warn during automatic output levels detection if the display device input range or graphics driver output range look to be misconfigured.
  • [Enhancement] Profile loader (Windows): Use an alternate method to enforce single instance if local IPC is blocked.
  • Tone response curve plot now uses the illuminant-relative profile whitepoint instead of D50 for input values if using absolute colorimetric intent.
  • Rename “LG OLED” (.dcl) 3D LUT format to “DeviceControl” and unlock available resolutions.

Fixed in this release:

  • [Moderate] Fix SpyderX calibration issue when using 32-bit ArgyllCMS executables.
  • [Trivial] Reload current calibration when cancelling profile installation (regression of a change to profile installation dialog handling in DisplayCAL 3.8.8, SVN revision r6252).
  • [Trivial] When loading settings from a profile, restore unused CIECAM02 viewing conditions (if applicable).
  • [Trivial] Prevent potential double prompt for instrument calibration.
  • [Cosmetic] Do not re-use logfiles for standalone tools as long as other instances are still running.
  • [Moderate] Linux: Failure to launch with pre-release versions of wxPython 4.
