📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, Feb 28, 2026 Heard a single gun shot go off at 4:10 AM. And it sounded close, real close. Sounded like a 22, but could have been a 9 mm if further away. Was tempted to call 911, but decided against it. Decided to prepare to "repel boarders" instead (with my G34). After ten minutes OR so, turned on the TV & noticed that our U.S. military had attacked Iran. Coincidence ? Hard to know. For now, will assume Yes. i.e., either someone celebrating (for, & very-likely) OR someone retaliating (against, & NOT likely). -----

(1) As a reminder, it's Photosets' Long Press Shutter support controlling a User-sized FIFO Buffer that's the starting point of it ALL. (2) Photosets crafts 10-bit Videos simply based-upon what's stored in the app. (3) up-to "60" scenes per 8-bit Video. Also, for the record, from our perspective, nothing Technical prevents v25.411+ from becoming the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App. -----

(1) Capture, plus various camera controls. (2) Currently ONLY capture, but we're now working on adding support for everything, & more, that Apple supports with their Final Cut Camera app. (3) ONLY if the Master is an iPad and its Camera is participating in the MVC session. (4) via our companion macOS app for Photosets, Photosets TV/Studio. (5) As you may OR may NOT know, Photosets includes an integrated Short-Form, 60-Scene 8-bit 420 Video Maker. And it includes Rock Solid A/V synch support for the optional concurrently captured Audio data. You can run the Video Maker on an iPhone OR iPad. In the past, we had allowed Photosets' 8-bit 420 60-scene Video Maker to also run on a Mac. And for that case, End Users needed our Photosets TV/Studio macOS app with its custom App Group-based Content Sharing support, to pass photo sets IN & get Videos OUT (of the Mac app). -----
