Chromium 70 update – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1322.4
-
@lonm But still it's a mystery how you got there - especially that I use this page quite often, so I should've come across it too.
-
@rtransformation: No 2.0 will not use Chrom<em>ium</em> 70
-
-
@becm: If it is in Chromium, it should in ours. AV1 is an open codec, so no need for us to switch it off
-
@lonm if you use the context menu > "Go to ..." it opens the chrome:about page for some reason
-
@rtransformation Usually, "only" security patches will be backported to stable.

@ruario Installation fails with failed dependency: "liberation-fonts is needed by vivaldi-snapshot-2.1.1322.4-2.x86_64"
but fonts-ttf-liberation is already installed.

This is the first time I can recall that prerelease Chromium has made it into prerelease Vivaldi. Has it happened before? This definitely makes for a future scenario where Vivaldi can ship a release version much closer to when Chromium ships theirs.
-
@rseiler second time, even happened few snapshots ago
if chromium do a good work, it's better even for v -
@mrprobs fonts-ttf-liberation-2.00.1-5.mga6 is installed.
-
@hadden89: It happened regularly before. It just was a grueling work to do Chr67 intake, so it took a long time this time. Should be much better now
-
There was an issue with the extension bar in the previous snapshot and it seems to be fixed, great work!
-
Hurray! All windows are opened in fullscreen on startup now if they've been in fullscreen on closing. \o/ Is this an intentional fix?
-
Tab Casting of background tabs (VB-43642)
Tabs opened in background are being fully loaded in this version.
So media starts to play in tabs that hasnt been used yet.Is this working as intended or is just an unfortunate side effect of the mentioned change?
-
@rtransformation: No, but 2.1 will be based on Chromium 70 and we hope we do not have to wait long with that release at all.
-
@cqoicebordel: Yes, we are back on track and long may that continue. That update was a pain, but the latest updates have been a lot lighter, giving us more time to work on other stuff, both features and long standing pet issues.

Hi there, thanks for another SS. One issue I found just now: There seem to be a problem with an specific image format. In the middle of an article (https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Zahlen-bitte-500-Millionen-Mark-pro-Monat-der-Zusammenbruch-der-DDR-4179952.html?seite=all) there is a b/w image of Honecker and Gorbachev shaking hands. In FF the image shows perfectly fine whereas in Viv (this latest SS 32bit) I only see some bilinear filtered mega pixels. Anyone else got this?
@Germans: have a nice holiday tomorrow^^
@everyone else: have a nice day tomorrow^^! -
@fendar Same image quality in FF and last SS for me (but I'm under 64bit - don't know if this might be the reason).
-
@fendar Confirmed here. IrfanView opens the image saved from Firefox and tells me that it is a JPEG Progressive image. After saving from Firefox, it uploads OK here.
Specs: AMD A10-6800K, 8 Gb on Win 10 64-bit build 17134,286 • Snapshot 2.1.1322.4 (64-bit)

@Fendar
The image served to Vivaldi is actually a 10Kb WEBP with extension JPEG, and it's even smaller, 610x419.
FF doesn't support WEBP I guess, so the actual 100Kb JPEG (786x540) is served.
You can see the different url served with dev tools or with View page source.
