Hello! This is the XXX weekly newsletter with news in the Nuvola Player project. Weekly newsletters are sent once a week, but only if something important has happened. We don't want to make you bored. This issue deals with XXX stable release updates, new features in Nuvola Player 3.1 and reports for patrons.
Jango script 2.1 was released fixing metadata parsing and adding format requirements flags for Nuvola Player 3.2.
Nuvola Player 3.0.2 was released addressing following issues:
Added hint how to edit/remove keyboard shortcut in the Keyboard shortcuts tab of the Preferences dialog. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#217
WebView used to fail to initialize properly sometimes resulting in empty non-functional window. This should not occur any more. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#207
WebKitGTK version information was added to the JavaScript API for web app scripts to check whether they are compatible and notify user if they are not. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#215
Ubuntu 14.04: WebKitGTK 2.8.5 packages have been uploaded to the Nuvola Player repository and Nuvola Player now uses this version instead the old packages from the official Ubuntu archive. this should fix various rendering and integration issues that happened only in Ubuntu 14.04. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#216
Fedora 22 and 23: Nuvola Player package also depends on the webkitgtk4-plugin-process-gtk2 package. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#223
New features in Nuvola Player 3.1
Nuvola Player 3.1 is the current rolling series. New builds are constantly rolling out as new features are being developed. Initial milestone 3.1.0 was forked from release 3.0.0 on December 30th, 2015 and there have been XXX commits since then including XXX new feature visible to users.
Nuvola Player Package Repository
I build and published Nuvola Player 3.0 and 3.1 packages for Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus.
The repositories of the Nuvola Player 3.0 and 3.1 now contain the WebKitGTK 2.8.5 packages for Ubuntu 14.04 and Nuvola Player packages for this distribution have been rebuilt to use them instead of the old WebKitGTK packages provided by Ubuntu. This should fix all rendering/integration issues that had occurred only in Ubuntu 14.04.
Nuvola Player 3.0 and 3.1 packages Fedora 22 and 23 also depend on the webkitgtk4-plugin-process-gtk2 package, which is necessary for the Flash plugin to be detected.
