It would be helpful if a Regress Version button was available to regress the current release of iPi Studio or Recorder to a chosen previous version, in situation where the user finds a bug in the current release that prevents him from using the software properly.

Thanks for listening!

Whoops, another one. Could this thread be moved to Feature Requests? Thanks.

Fortunately, we use Microsoft ClickOnce technology for installing our applications. It has built-in support for restoring a previous version of application exactly for the same reason. You just need to:
    * open Control Panel
    * go to Add/Remove Programs
    * select desired app - iPi Desktop Motion Capture or iPi Recorder
    * press Change/Remove button
    * select option Restore the application to its previous state
Unfortunately, it works only one step back. You cannot select specific version to restore or perform this operation more than one time in a row.

Thank you for this useful information! In many situations, like when I just want to compare previous behavior, what you've explained should be perfectly fine. It saves me from digging around my software archives.

Alternatively, could some recent 'stable' Installers be made available, possibly in the wiki? In the past this was done in the forums during beta testing and I found it very useful. I try to keep previous iPisoft Installers available for testing purposes at my home studio but I occasionally missed downloading some of them.

You have a good suggestion. Starting from the release of v2.0 we'll maintain version history in wiki.

Now you can download any previous releases from product changelogs in our wiki:
