Anthias 2026.08.0

Anthias installs and runs behind an HTTP proxy, a TV switched on after the player starts gets a picture, and portrait photos show upright. On some Debian 13 PCs the install can lose DNS, so read the known problem before upgrading one.

Large HEIC, TIFF and AVIF photos no longer reboot boards with little memory, and other fixes Installing from a Raspberry Pi's own screen no longer locks you out, the server stops logging a Redis timeout every few seconds while the web interface is open, and the installer warns you before it discards your edits to the Anthias checkout.
URL and web page content loads after a cold boot on x86 On x86 players, web pages and other URL content no longer get skipped after a cold boot until Docker is restarted. On some Debian 13 PCs the change can break DNS while the installer runs, so read the known problem first.
Portrait photos from a phone or camera display upright Portrait JPEG and AVIF photos no longer show up sideways on the screen, and JPEGs you uploaded before the upgrade are fixed too.
A TV switched on after the player boots gets a picture on Raspberry Pi 5 and x86 A Raspberry Pi 5, x86 or generic arm64 player that booted while its TV was off now brings the picture up on its own once the TV comes on, instead of staying on No Signal.
Anthias installs and runs behind an HTTP proxy A player whose only way out is an HTTP proxy can now be installed and kept running. The installer asks for the proxy and sets it up everywhere Anthias needs it, so you no longer configure apt, Docker and each container by hand.
