*** ## Installation Help ### Troubleshooting **Installation fails with error message:** * Ensure you have administrator rights * Temporarily disable antivirus software * Check that you meet minimum system requirements **Application won't start (Windows):** * Verify Windows 10/11 (64-bit) is installed * Update graphics drivers * Check Windows Event Viewer for error details * Contact support with error logs **CLI won't start (Linux):** * Verify the `.deb` package installed correctly: `dpkg -l | grep chloros` * Check permissions: `sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/chloros-cli` * Run diagnostics: `chloros-cli selftest` * Check for missing libraries: `ldd /usr/lib/chloros/chloros-backend | grep "not found"` **License activation issues:** * Ensure internet connection is active * Verify credentials at * Check firewall isn't blocking Chloros * See [Chloros+ Login](/chloros/chloros+-login.md) for detailed instructions ### Getting Support Need help with installation or setup? * 📧 **Email**: * 🌐 **Website**: * 📚 **Documentation**: [Getting Started](/chloros/readme.md) * ❓ **FAQ**: [Frequently Asked Questions](/chloros/faq.md) *** ## Change Log
Version 1.1.0 (Latest) **Release Date: March 2026** **New Features** * **Linux Support** — Native CLI and SDK for Linux amd64 (x86\_64) and arm64 (NVIDIA Jetson JetPack 6). Install via `.deb` packages. * **NVIDIA Jetson Support** — Optimized processing for Jetson Nano, Orin Nano, Orin NX, and AGX Orin edge devices. * **Dynamic Compute Adaptation** — Automatic hardware detection and processing strategy optimization. Chloros adapts to your hardware from a Jetson Nano to a multi-GPU workstation. * **4-Thread Processing Pipeline** — Concurrent Detection, Calibration, Processing, and Export threads with dynamic GPU memory allocation. * **New CLI Commands** — `selftest` (system diagnostics) and `update` (Linux update management). * **New CLI Process Flags** — `--debayer` (standard/texture-aware), `--indices` (specify indices), `--target` (search target subfolder first for faster detection). * **New GUI Menu Items** — Add Files, Add Folder, and Start/Stop Processing now accessible from the main menu dropdown. **Improvements** * Cross-platform backend auto-detection (Windows and Linux paths) * Enhanced SDK `get_status()` with per-thread progress tracking * New SDK exceptions: `ChlorosConfigurationError`, `ChlorosAuthenticationError` * Thermal management and adaptive throttling for NVIDIA Jetson * Automatic memory management with OOM fallback to tiled GPU processing
Version 1.0.5 **Release Date: February 10, 2026** **New Features** * **Texture Aware Debayer Method \[Chloros+ Only] -** Texture Aware uses a high-quality edge-aware debayer combined with an AI/ML denoising model which removes nearly all the debayering noise. * **Support for T4P Calibration Targets** * **Faster Chloros+ GPU processing, better memory management** **Bug Fixes** * Completely new frontend (GUI), should work on all Windows computers now.
Version 1.0.4 **Release Date: January 5, 2026** **New Features** * **Image/Metadata Toggle**: Added toggle in File Browser to view selected image's metadata in a table instead of the image grid * **Image Grid Zoom Slider**: New UI slider to adjust thumbnail size (also supports CTRL + mouse wheel) * **Image Grid Export Buttons**: Buttons in the top row to switch thumbnails from JPG to processed exports (Targets, Reflectance, Index, LUT) * **Map Tab**: New interactive 2D map showing image GPS location markers * Supports Google Maps and ESRI map tiles (auto-selects best tile service based on zoom level availability) * Mouse hover thumbnail preview on map markers **Bug Fixes** * Improved support for installing Chloros on non-English language computers
