-=====PIXILAB Blocks 7.4=====+=====PIXILAB Blocks 7.5.1=====
  
 +Released on February 13, 2026, this version fixes two regressions in 7.5. One of these could in some rare cases result in data corruption when editing a block. The other one caused playback failure on older Samsung SSSP (pre Tizen 7) smart signage displays. If you've installed 7.5, you should update to 7.5.1 immediately.
