Chromium 70 update – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1322.4
-
Wow, what a huge performance increase. Websites load much faster on macOS 10.14. Is this caused by the Chromium update?
Great job guys -
@ornorm Go ahead, find the differences:
-
@lonm said in Chromium 70 update – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1322.4:
It seems that typing vivaldi://about redirects to chrome://about, which is displayed as vivaldi://about in the address bar.
It never happened to me, I always got the same page either by typing this URL to the address bar or by clicking the respective menu item.
-
@pafflick That's very strange. I just tried it again, and
vivaldi://about
works correctly now. I must have not been paying attention earlier. -
will 2.0 stable also can be updated to chrome70?
-
@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.
Mageia Linux 6 x86_64 -
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.
