get-tinypilot.sh specify release

[naturistwiki]

Is it possible to specify a specific release version for get-tinypilot.sh? I am experiencing some issues with the latest release and I would like to install one version prior for testing.

Hi, thanks for your question. Unfortunately, there isn't an officially supported way of installing a specific version of the community edition of TinyPilot other than building it from source. However, we recommend running the latest version of TinyPilot to ensure you get the newest features and fixes. If you're having problems with the latest version, please contact us via our forum; we'll be happy to help!

I have a tiny pilot voyager and when I updated to community 1.9.5-6, the TC358743 was no longer working. I had a working image of community 1.9.1-19 that I had taken over a year ago. I restored that image, ran apt update/apt upgrade, and then upgraded tiny pilot from the UI. It worked this time. From now on, I'm just going to create an image of the device before every upgrade because I never know when the video is going to stop working.

Thanks for replying. I'm unaware of any breaking changes that would affect the TC358743 video capture chip, so it's plausible that something went awry during the upgrade and was resolved by reimaging. In any case, I'm pleased that you're back up and running!
