Four betas in, and it's shipped. Everything you tested across beta.1 to beta.4 is now the stable build.

Get it: brew upgrade --cask whatcable, or the in-app updater, or straight from the release page. If you're running a beta, the updater will offer you 1.3.0 as an upgrade, so there's nothing special to do. The official homebrew-cask copy lags an hour or two behind while their bot catches up.

Full notes are on the release. The short version: the connected devices list now shows what is plugged into what instead of a flat pile of hubs, cables carrying a USB-IF certificate say so, and M1 Pro / Max / Ultra finally get their charging contract read out of the SMC.

What came from this group specifically:

• @official-Cromatin's report on [Bug] Power monitor stuck on "waiting for power telemetry from macOS" on port connected to charger #491 is the reason the M1 Pro charging fix exists at all. That one had been sitting unexplained for a while.
• @jimmyorz caught the hub controls shipping in English only, which turned out to be three strings missing across nineteen languages and a gap in the check that was supposed to catch exactly that.
• @aguilaair spotted the Power Monitor icon changing under you as you clicked it.
• @cannotcollide identified the Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro Cable, which is how two rows of my own working notes stopped being printed at people as cable names.

One outstanding thing. @cannotcollide reported USB devices showing up inside an OWC Express 1M2, which has no USB ports to put them in. It stopped happening before I could reproduce it, and the code has not changed since, so it is dormant rather than fixed. If you see anything nested under a device that could not possibly be hosting it, that is the one I want. A test-kit run with that setup connected would settle it in an afternoon.

Otherwise: bugs get their own issue labelled beta, same as before. A plain "looks fine on my [Mac]" is still worth posting.

Thanks all. This one was a lot of change in one release and it went out in better shape because you kicked it around first.

I'll keep an eye out and try to catch the bug if it happens again.
