OpenAVC v0.9.0 - Changelog

Browse Drivers refresh, declarative Telnet login for YAML drivers, smarter discovery, and Programmer login.

Video, Streaming, and Power are first-class categories
HTTP and OSC drivers are properly tagged in the catalog
Each driver shows tags, overview, compatible models, and a deprecated badge when set

YAML drivers can declare a Username/Password handshake without writing Python
Atlona OmniStream and Lutron HomeWorks QS now work out of the box with login auth enabled

Network discovery uses the community device catalog to identify equipment by exact manufacturer and model
When a model is recognized, OpenAVC suggests the right driver directly

Set a Programmer username and password in System Settings to require sign-in for editing

WebSocket broadcasts fan out concurrently for smoother panel updates
Project files preserve unknown fields, making rollback safer after editing on a newer version

Panels can no longer write outside the var.* and plugin.* state namespaces over WebSocket
Programmer and Panel passwords set at runtime are enforced immediately without a restart
New state.delete WebSocket message replaces the previous workaround for clearing state keys
Programmer IDE debounces plugin event refetches to eliminate flicker on plugin-heavy projects

Canonical YAML keys for command and response definitions are now send and match
Legacy string and pattern aliases still load with a one-time deprecation warning
