Odyssey 1.23 progress: r5 RC2

@AmigaBlitter

Have a read of the news post here: http://www.amigans.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=2045

I tell you one thing that has always annoyed me with OWB is the question "Do you want to save these credentials?" for username and passwords.

It always asks you before the attempt to e.g. log-in, 9 times out of 10 you want to save the credentials afterwards once you know they are actually correct!

Chrome does the same. I suspect it's not possible / easy to save after the event, as the login info is not stored in the retrieved page, and storing temporarily in the browser creates a potential security hole.

@broadblues

FireFox (my preferred browser) and Timberwolf both manage it okay, I don't know about Chrome.

I had Javascript disabled in the url prefs for a few sites in the old 1.16 because they would crash odyssey but they all semms to work fine now. Only one site that i frequently visit was affected but it was also one of my most viewed sites so i'm happy now :)

@kas1e
Thanks for this great port. For me the HTML5 Video on Youtube and HTML5 audio works just great. Thank you for the great work you do.

Please, can you clarify the differences about the "Cache Model" setting?

Donation on your way!

@kas1e

Many thanks for the hard work

Donation sent to you!

No sound too, but if you open Mixer then sound appear !
Very strange indeed, but i assume it's how AHI works by default ..

I got my bookmarks from 1.16 to 1.23
How can I get my saved passwords across?

@samo79

Because Mixer has nothing to do whit AHI, and thats way Mixer does not work on AmigaONE-X1000 (where there is no hardware volume).

Mixer sets the volume when Mixer is loaded, and it does so by spackling directly whit the PCI cards.

I guess you will need to configure AHI correctly to get volume whit out starting Mixer.

To get sound in Youtube, just set AHI music unit to unit 0:16bit stereo++

@LiveForIt

You right, set to unit 0 and now seems solved

<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">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</span></p>

@kas1e

Great job mate!
Everything is working great here! Peggy Rulez!
for the best performance in youtube i have to run the video in 240p
But the browsing is fast and smooth and enjoyable every ware .

Great Great Great

@Kas1e

wonderfull job. It works fine. I want just point out a couple of minor problems:
At starting the about message still mention 1.16 version. (I went a bit in confusion!)
In the next release it would be possible to add an install/update script?

thanks again

Great HTML5 video testing site.
http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html

Great job, thanks to all involved.

Only had a quick test but all seems well so far.
I did notice the CPU seems to hang around 35% on YouTube even after the page has fully loaded.
This is on a Sam440ep.

No doubt greater minds here can say why
I tried leaving the page longer to see if it's JS still running on the page.
Doesn't appear to be the case.

If that CPU loss could be retrieved, it would help playback

Thanks for the latest version kas1e and everyone that worked on it :)

Hi all

Does YouTube fullscreen feature work on Sam460 + RadeonHD ?

Thank you Kas1e, Thore and Fab for your work.

Kas1e, just a little thing, for the iconification icon, it seems that you keep a call to "OWB.info"

By adding a fake OWB.info in Odyssey drawer, the usual iconified icon is restored.
