NEW
- [Windows/macOS host] Option to disable connection daisy chaining. Prevents double/multi-hop scenarios, by disabling the ability to connect to another host from within a Parsec session. By default, only account owners can establish double/multi-hop sessions.
IMPROVEMENTS
- [macOS] macOS users who are using WARP or the free version now have access to an updated user interface.
- [Linux] Hardware support for FFMPEG 4-6.
- [Windows/macOS client] Microphone controls are now available in the overlay when Virtual Microphone is enabled on the Windows host.
- [[Windows/macOS client] Swap Command and Control setting is enabled by default when connecting from Mac to PC or vice-versa.
- [Windows host] Virtual Monitor Fallback is enabled by default when Virtual Display Driver is installed and no physical monitors are found.
- [Windows host] Virtual Microphone feature is enabled by default on hosts with compatible Virtual USB Driver.
- [Windows host] Virtual Mouse is enabled by default on hosts with compatible Virtual USB driver.
- [Windows host] Constant FPS is now configurable in the host settings menu.
- [Windows/macOS client] 10-bit color is now available for each screen in the overlay.
- [macOS client] Accessibility permissions are now required when installing Parsec on macOS. Subsequently, HID mode setting was removed as it’s now redundant.
- Parsec’s device identifier token (devid.bin) has moved to a persistent location so that it is not reset or cleaned up when Parsec is reinstalled. This token is used to identify different computers that a user has logged into uniquely.

- [Windows host] Privacy mode will no longer time out and show an error if a Windows logon takes more than 30 seconds.
- [Windows client] Parsec will automatically ignore faulting hardware decoders that would previously cause the app to enter a crash loop.
- [Windows host] Fixed a bug where Parsec would spam the log file when no audio device is found.
- [macOS client] Fixed an issue where the default microphone selection would not be updated when the microphone was removed.
- [macOS client] Fixed an issue where multi-channel microphones were not displayed in the microphone passthrough selection list.
