Odyssey 1.23 progress: r5 RC2

@AmigaBlitter
I never use Cairo from SDK, only own builded. Will be cool, if, someday, there will be hardware accelerated cairo without bugs of latest version. Then it can be cool to use it for odyssey and i assume it will be really faster (if and when)

But in other words, you of course can use new cairo which you can build yourself , instead of SDK one (which, if i see it right, not HW accelerated as well, but can be wrong and even if, it still pretty dated today).

Great Kas1e ... soon we will browsing

Only deal with calling clipboard hook from odyssey's process now , and can be released in general as 1.23, but as i says there is still to do a lot about mediaplayer-fullscreen (to support overlays correctly, to support all that hw acceleration of new radeons, etc). Its all can take really a lot of time, so to hold release because of that imho make no sense, as slow window mode in youtube its better than no youtube. Besides i assume x1000/x5000 users will have good fps, and in general on my peg2 i have 15 fps and its quite ok in compare with no youtube. And mediaplayer its not just youtube, but html5 video/audio: for example today i play in some html5 based online games (not ultra fast, but some playable).

As for youtube, window mode anyway will be always like this , so imho instead of waiting for months and dunno-what-can-happens-with-any-of-us better to release. Maybe through it worth to wait new mui release as Thore fix bunch of bugs as well which make odyssey works better.

And that crash-bug related to some sockets/timing need to be deal too, but as it present in all previous ports and ppls live with it ok, and its not so offten happens, i assume we can just put it in TODO. At least better live on 1.23 with that bug, in compare with 1.16 with that bug.

At least i see it like this. After 1.23, release by release (if fab will continue to share sources) improve video-player and deal with that timing bug. But if other ones prefer to wait, i can hold it for half of year till all will be not done :)

Excellent. A release would be great, but only when you are happy with things. Don't let my nagging push you into a public release too soon...

@kas1e
thx for you work and a little donaton , all i can do ;)

@kas1e

release it! hungry users may be a good test bench

@AmigaBlitter

Yes i kind of agree, but we must remember that there are those out there who would love to see this port go tits up....

Can be released as beta. Meanwhile... kas1e can continue his work debugging and fixing errors

As i say there just one known bug (avail in all previous ports as well), and other than that it just didn't have full-screen-overlay mediaplayer, but dunno if you can call it as bug (of course not). For other parts everything should be fine and better than 1.16 (and because Thore fix more bugs in mui, and because of all other stuff which you can read before in that topic).

@Netrot
Thanks for :)

It´s not so easy to say if kas1e should release his port at this time. Some will say the port is not fine because things won´t go as they expect. Some will say it doesn´t matter if some things won´t go as they should. If I would be in his shoes I don´t know what to do. But I know I would be very happy when he released the port and it doesn´t matter if some things won´t go.

@kas1e
You have done a really great job.

Yeah! Very good work

thanks for all the work done and feel free to choose if release it or not.. :)

@nubechecorre
yes thanks kas1e but better if you release it :D

Awesome Kas1e!!

@kas1e

CTRL+Wheel combination to zoom in/out does it works on you ?

@samo79

Maybe to release a beta is a good idea
We can betatest it and make bugreports
So Odyssey will be more and more a very good browser

@tommysammy

Maybe but i think it will be better to let him finish the clipboard hook issue first .. then eventually check this CTRL+Wheel

Also don't forget that Thore still working hard on fixing the latest MUI bugs, expecially regarding the tabs .. he is at good point but it's not 100% finished .. be patience a bit more as they are pretty close to

I see, however without any graphical button as reference it wasn't so clear, also i didn't know about that double click etc ..

@samo79

I dont know if tommy will help kas1e for a future more funcy color icon for the 1.23 owb, if will be i hope the great Thomas will make all the buttons and new set for more AmigaOS Owb ... like an AmigaOS Owb theme :)

Nope, checking why (but i know why, because i handle mouse wheel natively, and there is some other code which also handle it together with ctrl, should't be hard to fix)

edit: found, its in the webviewprivate.cpp

@tlosm
Maybe Gigi first i will play a little bit with it
