Odyssey 1.23 progress: r5 RC2

@kas1e

I get two reproducable crashes

See
https://github.com/kas1e/Odyssey/issues/6
and
https://github.com/kas1e/Odyssey/issues/5

@Raziel
On the first problem link I get an recoverable DSI Error when scrolling with mouse wheel and reach -

"Dec 17, 2019: Westwood’s Blade Runner (1997) is finally available for purchase as a digital copy"

and also a lot of disk activity before the DSI. But I only get an DSI Error the first time I visit the page, If I close the tab and visit it again no DSI Error. Only when I quit and restart Odyssey I get an error again.

On the second problem link I get no problem at all. How long should I wait?

Edit: Forget what I wrote, I too got a freeze on that second problem link.

As the quarantine had left me with few opportunities to spend money in the past month, I managed to save 90 EUR, which I have evenly distributed between kas1e, Capehill and Ami603. Enjoy, and thanks for all your hard work!

@trixie

@walkero
Thanks, would donate but with beta5 the two Donate tools won't open. If turning off JS I got a Recaptcha prompt but not able to proceed.

Quote:Yeah, noticed the same with kas1e's Donate button (for the other two I used their mail addresses), so I had to use a Windoze machine to donate for Odyssey - oh, the irony!

Maybe a goal for a future version - to make the Donate buttons work in Odyssey?

Best regards,

Hi kas1e,
I was doing some tests with odyssey 05 to watch full screen videos.
I apologize for my questions.
If I run tests on the site:
http://www.html5videoplayer.net/index.html

In this case "composite" is not enabled in GUI / PREFS
nor the new script "YouTube_Fullscreen_Fix.js"
and I don't even use the PatchCompositeTag

I can see the video in full screen (apart from the speed)

I don't understand if I'm converting the video or if this can be useful for viewing the video in full screen.

I can't understand why it works well in full screen

Thanks again for your work, and sorry if the question is out of context for your work.

here the video if it can be useful:

@white
That test do not use fullscreen, its just resized window

@white

Just to complete Kas1e answer, you can do a right clic on the video and chosse from the menu "Play in Fullscreen", and you'll got the composited video scalling in your tab.

Regards,

@Petrol
@kas1e

Thanks for the reply
this helps me a lot
there must probably be something wrong with my configuration every time i start Odyssey i always have to activate
"YouTube_Fullscreen_Fix.js"
because it is disabled
Or maybe I probably didn't understand exactly how it works.
I start Odyssey
open in the script menu "YouTube_Fullscreen_Fix.js" I activate it
I restart Odyssey but the script is always disabled
But reading your suggestions in the topic it seems to me that this is the right procedure.

Am I wrong?

Anyway, I'm very happy because even without using it in full screen, it's really nice to use Odyssey now.
Thanks.

@Petrol
Thanks, now I try this again
Thanks for your patience

@Petrol

White is using WinUAE so no compositing available (except with some kind of hack I presume).

Anyone else having an issue on https://morph.zone/news/ ?

Sam460ex + Radeon RX550

symbol info:
Instruction pointer 0x7E53F8DC belongs to module "Odyssey" (PowerPC)
Symbol: _cairo_clip_intersect_rectangle_box + 0x36C in section 1 offset 0x019B28B8

Issue seems to have gone for now but it was consistent over the last 2-3 days.

@Spectre
I seems to have that one too there now (while didn't before). I also have that one from time to time on youtube, when i hit settings button. But on youtube it random, while on morphos i got this one right now.

I have hopes it will be autofixed with more up2date cairo.

@kas1e

Are you able to add in contextmenu of the bookmark window a new option;

Open Link in New Background Tab

This menu option is currently missed in bookmark window when you
right-click, but still present in the contextmenu of the main window

@samo79
Should be possible. It missed and in hotlinks, and in bookmarks, but works only on links of the web content. Dunno maybe there was reassons why it didn't added to other places, but that need to be checked. Probabaly need to create BZ about.

@samo79

Just click with the middle button on the link you want to be opened on a background tab.

Edit : sorry, you meant on the bookmark window.

@K-L
Intersting that middle-click also works in bookmark window, but it did open in the new active tab, not in background one, while in menu i have for middle button behaviour "new background tab".

So for first middle mouse button didn't open in background tab in history/qualikins/bookmarks while should, and it didn't have option "open in new bacgkround tab" at all. Maybe there were reasson for, but need to check that one.
