Vivaldi 2.2: Focus on details
-
"Alt Key for Main Menu" in settings is allways unchecked. It works, but option is unchecked. Try select this option, close settings windows, and open settings again. Windows 10 x64, Vivaldi 64-bits.

@slake Nice article. Always great to see a reviewer write positive things about our favorite browser.
Like others there are a few features I am waiting for with an "I can wait for when it's ready" attitude.
As always Vivaldi will release feature only "when they are ready and not a moment sooner"."Viva Vivaldi!"

@szczyputek Confirmed. I forget now why this was implemented. It does nothing for me either.
-
Opening YouTube video in full screen (by double click) is slow and not as smooth as in Firefox
-
Thank you to the team for the great additions for the year.
Picture-in-picture mode is something that I really wanted for a long time. However, I do think that the implementation can be done much better rather than the existing double right click on Youtube. It took me sometime to find the option. Hopefully in newer versions, we can do it in a way like how Opera does it.
But nonetheless, great brrowser! Keep up the good work guys! Have an enjoyable Christmas and New Year

Great job, guys. Very impressive production. Be blessed.

[Regression] Chrome Startpage is briefly shown after navigation from startpage as homepage (VB-46912)
Unfortunately ,this regression is not fixed
It still loads when using dials and is even captured as the tab thumbnail.
And for some reason it looks like a secure web page (notice the lock in the address field) rather than an internal one
-
(re) Reported as
VB-47326

@Gwen-Dragon it should't be declared as "fixed" until vivaldi://newtab/ shows the google page
-
...and I still had random crashes every few minutes, to the point I had to rebuild my profile AGAIN after one week since the last RC snapshot.
This is getting ridiculous. I never had to rebuild my profile in 3 years, never had so many crashes since the last weeks. -
Good morning and congratulations on the new release. On my system, Netflix fails with 'Missing Component: We cannot find all the required components to play Netflix on this device. Please visit chrome://components, locate the WidevineCdm component, and click the "Check for update" button. Error Code: M7701-1003'
This is just FYI since you're focusing on details MX-Linux 18.1, update through package manager -
Thanks, Gwen-Dragon. I have used that and your libffmpeg script for some time, so I could easily roll back to watch Netflix. I only report this because 2.2 is expected to play Netflix out of the box, and, at least on my system, it doesn't.
EDIT: Sorry to say, I find that pbs.org videos and youtube won't play I have rolled back to 2.1. I don't see anyone else reporting this, so it must be my system. -
The last few updates the "notify about updates" does not keep the box ticked.
Settings>Updates>Notify about updates
I tick it every time but it does not stay ticked. Not that big of a deal since I check the forums and the blog daily if not more often. But it should stay ticked once it has been ticked. -
@Pesala But when you try turn it on and off and then close the setting, Main Menu will not be displayed after pressing the Alt key. I thing it works well, but it's badly shown in settings.
I must report a bug?
-
Fairly nice update!
As a Christmas wish, please focus performance next! UI and/or in general.
-
@szczyputek I cannot get it to do anything. Alt always opens the menu, but the checkbox not remembering its status looks like a bug.

By the way, the download settings are senseless. After selecting the "Always Save Files to Default Download Location" option, when downloading a file there is always a system window in which we indicate where to save the file. But if you uncheck the "Always Save Files to Default Download Location" option, you will always see a window:
However, "Save", "Save as..." and "Open" do the same: it opens a system window in which you indicate the place of saving. This option is doing nothing...
-
@szczyputek I agree with you, the saving in Vivaldi needs more love and care.
-
@szczyputek For me, it does what it says and does not show the dialogue again when I download other files.
However, it does not enable the checkbox in Settings, Downloads, Always Save Files to Default Download Location, and the dialogue is again shown after restarting Vivaldi.
This may be a bug or the intended behaviour.
- Save: will save a file to the default download location. If the file already exists there, it will be saved with a number suffix (1), (2), etc.
- Save As: will save the file to any other folder. My default for Save as came up as My Pictures, not Downloads. It remembers the last used folders.
- Open: downloads the file to the default location, then opens in the associated program, e.g. it opens archives in 7-Zip for me.
- Cancel: does what it says.
