To make sure the locally installed applications of Visual Radio Assist can securely communicate over HTTPS you need to install the latest valid VRA certificate bundle to your certificate store.
In the latest version of the Core, version **4.5.12** , this bundle is automatically installed on startup. It is highly advised to install this renewed certificate to facilitate fast and stable local communication. For more information about the local app communication check the docs: https://docs.visualradioassist.live/advanced-installation/direct-local-bus-api-ssl-connection. Make sure to also update the other apps to the latest versions.

New Media Connection control for OBS and vMix
We expanded Visual Radio Assist with a dedicated Media Connection interface for managing OBS and vMix integrations. While media server connections existed before, configuring and monitoring them required navigating through settings. Now, both OBS and vMix connections can be set up, monitored, and controlled from a unified interface with real-time state overviews, recording status, and timecodes.
Alongside this, we added timeline zooming to the Clips editor with intelligent scroll behavior that follows the playhead, and introduced station-wide event broadcasting for dashboard actions.
