{{GreenCheckbox|title=Release Notes|body=This release rebuilds the viewer using 64bit address space. It is our hope that this will improve viewer stability, allow you to use more of the memory in your system (if you have more than 4GB), and possibly also improve performance.

There is no Linux viewer yet.

However, there are two Windows viewers, a 32-bit build and a 64-bit build.
* If you use an HD 2000 or 3000 series video card on Windows 10, choose 32 bit
* Otherwise, choose the one that matches your copy of Windows (if your computer can run 64bit, and most can, you will get better performance and fewer crashes running a 64 bit Windows and Viewer).
If you chose the wrong one, the viewer will upgrade you again the first time you run it to the correct one (if you think it made the wrong choice, please file a bug in jira). This build further refines the determination of what is "the best" platform for your system.

The Mac build does not support 32-bit Macs (this is permanent)
* Video media (QuickTime) usually does not play (the media handling is now the same as the Windows viewer).
* The volume of web based media (e.g. YouTube) doesn't change based on your distance from the source.
