I would be pleased if the mediaplayer bug fixed somehow. Hate all the crashes/freezes :)

Given how old Odyssey 1.23 is, I'm sure we'd all like to see a more up-to-date version...

Btw, what exactly is holding up development, if I may ask? If money's involved somehow, then I can donate quite a lot to get things moving :)

Two thing that I'd like to see is in future versions are that when you restore the session only one tab will load, only one site and then only when you click on a tab. This is how FF works and it makes it faster at startup because of it and also it saves RAM. The other thing is that when I close a tab it doesn't return RAM, only when I quit Odyssey. I don't dare to use it too heavily because of this (not have too many tabs open).

About the memory usage: Webkit caches all memory it uses. It never frees anything back to the system, but if you close one tab and open another, the memory will be reused.

It would be very nice with Load-on-click for tabs when restoring a session though.

Funny I hadn't realized the reusing. I guess I won't quit the browser then if I move from a heavy site to a ... less heavy one.

Has it? Then why do people keep moaning about no updates? Surely somebody can build an OS4 version from that source?

Yep it has, i even year (or more?) ago was noticed about, and have few mails with Deadwood about, where we agree that i can just send them os4 patches, they (fab and deadwood) will revisied it and apply if all ok.

But then, new problem arise about which everyone told in last year : latest webkits changes broken JS for big endian. As you can see, there was 1.25 release for AROS only, and that is because Fab didn't deal at moment with that problems. Deadwood lately create bounty for, but as there wasn't too much fuzz about and intrest from users and developers, it didnt come up to anything good, so we only can wait when Fab will deal with ?:)

Of course. Its just need time, interest and motivation. There through will need to make the same as we do before: aos4 specific changes there and there, not a lot now, as our mui is good enough now, but still. As well as there is problems to build all the 3d party deps normally, some are pretty specific. As well as if any didn't have expirience with cross-compilation and all that build processes that will be pain too. But all possible of course. Probably for you as aos4 Netsurf author it will be twice easy :)

I can't think it was advertised or described very well. Was there ever any news item(s) here or AW.net?

If it was described as bounty for solving the main issue that is blocking the release of updated Odyssey for OS4 (and MOS), then I think would get more attention.

You are probably right, since most people don't even know that they broke the big endian support in the latest Webkit.

Yes true , Tobias Netzel on Leopard Webkit found really difficult to patch the Js engine on webkit for work on Pmacs ... Many scripts make the browser hang and crash.

In any way the leopard webkit perform really good in the majority of the last websites ... if we dont count facebook chat where webkit crash.

Im spoking about r 600.8.2 i dont know what webkit is used by Odyssey 537 (?)

Changing browser

I can for sure say one thing the Teen4Fox is working really good on my PowerMAc and is based on Geko... never crash, no problems with video play on youtube or facebook ...an thinking why no one had been ask to Cameron Kaiser to enter in the dev group for make a porting on amigaos (Cameron know really well Amiga ) ?

I'm aware of that. It's not a NEWS item, but a forum thread. Quite a different thing, and easily not seen.

Ok, but while we wait maybe you could update the current version 1.23 ?
Just today deadwood claimed to have fixed some important memory leak issues and he also optimized a bit the memory usage !

Probably all that changes can be reused also in our old version with little or zero changes, see:

http://aros-exec.org/modules/newbb/vi ... t_id=97968#forumpost97968

Also still of course many old minor issues that you could fix ...

I found sources of 1.23 on old hdd, and apply patches which deadwood send me. You and others may try it (only binary, replace one from 1.23 install): https://www.sendspace.com/file/7kfpi7

Through i do not know what differences should be. At least deadwood told on aros-exec, that after visiting and leaving gmail memory wasn't freed, so probably gmail can be good test case.

Tell me if anything changes in good way, so i can reupload 1.23 archive with new binary.
