Chauvet 3.21.31
Edited on Feb 14:
We have identified an issue in this release where PDF annotations appear abnormally in landscape mode. You can temporarily resolve this by lassoing or erasing the annotations while in landscape mode.
We have temporarily suspended this release and will provide a new version with a fix shortly. If you prefer to update despite the issue, you can still download the firmware here and update it manually.
Thank you for your understanding!
