New method to manage external messages.


As you can see from https://thelightingcontroller.com/viewtopic.php?f=78&t=6614, I use the TCP endpoint documented in http://download.thelightingcontroller.com/software/External_Application/Protocol.pdf to control TLC from Companion, making it useable from a StreamDeck. The module has quite a few active users and so I'm just checking that the latest beta doesn't make any changes to the API, or, if it does, is there an updated document?

No change on the API, just some internal changes to avoid some crashes with Live-Mobile V3 ;)

Thanks, I’ve had reports of crashes from API use and I’ve mostly suspected it’s due to the API blocking the UI thread. Will be interesting to see if this helps.
