VokoscreenNG 3.8.0 has been released #284

Open vkohaupt opened 9 months ago

A few new features have been added. You can now change the language directly without restarting. The newly introduced dark mode works just as easily.

The player has been completely rewritten and appears as an independent window on the screen. Another advantage of the new player is that Windows users no longer need an additional audio codec pack. This means that all audio codecs are included in the installation package.

The webcam now shows significantly better edge smoothing for circles and ellipses under Windows.

GIF is now also supported on Linux. To do this, the gstreamer-plugins-rs package must be installed. When using it, you should keep in mind that the FPS/second should be reduced to a minimum. 10fps/s is often enough. GIF is made for small pictures. Full screen recordings work, but produce very large files. A solution is being sought for Flatpak to get the gstreamer-plugins-rs package into it.

The GUI for Wayland has been revised but doesn't offer much new.

The current vokoscrennNG 3.8.0 is expected to be the last or penultimate version based on Qt 5. It is still unclear whether there will be a 3.9.0. With vokoscreenNG 4.0, Qt 6 is used and the work on this is largely completed.

Hi,

Thank you for the new version!

I've found it by chance because there's nothing new on the Release section. Is there a reason why it doesn't appear there for better visibility?

vkohaupt commented 8 months ago

The reason is simple, it was forgotten. This has now been fixed. Thanks.
