5minutes testing and it is great! Faster loading, rendering and scrolling. 360 def html5 Youtube videos play full speed with sound and only 36% CPU usage!? Imgur loads faster than my ipad and plays animated gifs faster than both my ipad and i5 laptop!
This is a huge improvement over 1.16
You need to update the default home screen to 1.23. It still says 1.16
1) SHIFT+HOME doesn't select all text in the address bar so I have to keep using the mouse.
Mui settings/keyboard/Marking. By default alt in use for marking (i asking Thore for shift as default too, but there was reasons for alt), but you can just choice shift in keyboard prefs

2) View/Status and other options above, the state of these checkmarks are never auto-saved/remembered.
That how it done originally.

I don't have re-appearing of ghastly colours, all looks ok when i just enable/disable status.

3) The new Web Inspector button in the top toolbar can clearly seen to be 2 pixels small in height + should be using 'info' in AISS/TBImages.
I use morphos's images, pretty possible one need some redraw for os4.

4) When only one tab is open I wish Odyssey/MUI did not extend the width of it across the whole window it looks very unsightly.
You can setup tabs as you want in mui prefs (groups). Include new option "hide single tabs"

5) When iconified a regular MUI 'window' appears as an icon. I believe this is called an 'AppIcon'? Clearly this needs to be replaced with the Odyssey logo. Which raises the question - 'What is the official logo for Odyssey?' The blue one or the compass?
Blue one from mason , for os4 users, original one compas.

7) Digging deeper.. if you type 'about:' in address bar and press enter the program information is out of date.
If you didn't have 1.23 (25.12.2013) version then possible i just forgot to overwrite by new about.html

8) From a web developer POV... selecting to view the source code of a page... it takes a long time for the actual source code to appear. I can assume that the syntax highlighting needs optimizing further.

9) Topsites:// wow really like this.. reminds me of Opera in some ways. However, in Grid mode, the contents of the 'page' need to be centred horizontally. In Coverflow mode the contents of the 'page' are centred (great), but is there any chance that the middle image (the one selected) can be made any larger? This could be fixed by introduced a new resolution to pick from in the drop-down menu.
I don't know, only Fab know

10) Finally, now that videos work. Do you know whether Odyssey respects the ScreenBlanker engine? i.e. if watching along video the screenblanker should not appear.
I do not know too. I didn't add any code related to screenblankers, and morphos related code related to screenblankers also disabled. I for myself have disable screenblankers in os4 at all, as they always give problems.
While i made some fast fix packing with fixing minor things, will be good if now, anyone who have problems with locales (those ones which come with 1.23 on morphos by default), can send me fixed ones and i can include them to fast-fix too.
Currently have one Italian one from samo.
edit: The old ones ppls send me in between i just skip, because they was for 1.16, and so they can't be included in 1.23. Now, anyone who have problems with their locales, can make one for 1.23, test it, and send me, so i can include it to fast fix

More testing later!
I can't get it to play video's on YouTube, what do I have to do to do this?
Update: Some video's play but sound breaking up and using 100% CPU!

Yes, I expected this to be one for Fab.

I am referring to the status bulbs/lights in the bottom right off the end window, the network activity LEDS, its very retro.

Hmmm, I see, perhaps this should be checked by default in MUI. Or they create reasons for us to register a keyfile! :)

In menu go to Windows/Scripts add and enable YouTube.js. Go to www.youtube.com/html5 select big button to confirm you want to use HTML5 playback. Finally pray that it works.
I can't get it to play video's on YouTube, what do I have to do to do this?
Check news-post, i explain there all the stuff related to youtube (but in brief, if you go to some video, and it didn't work, just spoof by some other os and do reload). you can also use scripts and stuff, but most of time spoofing as ie10, or as chrome, or as ipad will help you (of course, after you choice new spoof, you need to reload page).
Thank you very much indeed for your work! Odyssey 1.23 works very well on my A1-X1000. I can see YouTube videos in 360p. I like the new "thetopsites" site.
Roman as you are refactoring the archive now what do you think about adding also a link to Wikipedia in the list of the default search engine ?
Aniway while i'm writing this post i'm also still watching a video from YouTube (at 240p) and it's not so unusable as i'm expected (even on my little Sam440)
Sure it isn't perfect of course, but HTML video can be seen !!
EDIT: By the way while using i also found this: In our archive actually we have "YouTube.js" version 0.93 while Fab have an updated 0.94 version on his site: http://fabportnawak.free.fr/owb/scripts/

I have got it working for some video's now thanks
I have set in preferences to spoof as Safari 6.0.2 which I need to do to go on facebook and to check my ink levels on my wireless HP printer but it doesn't save it! I have to manually set it every time, is this a bug?
