Snapshot fix for DRM'd content on macOS — Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1692.4
-
@aronand: Please do, and thank you. I spend most of my day doing web-dev, but I truly love Vivaldi and the wholesome experience it offers. Right now, using devtools is a no no, so I keep having to open an instance of Chrome/Chrome Canary open for that purpose.

Uh, very strange. UI freeze - signinificant cpu utilization -> it takes a time to unfreeze. Two different ntb, win10/7. Back to fluently working 1657.11
-
The
sudo chmod -R +r /var/opt/vivaldi-snapshot/WidevineCdm
does the trick, if you do it straightaway. I ran the update-widevine on a couple installations before doing that, and messed things up.
It works fine now on deb 9, 10, and manjaro. In manjaro, the lib is under ~/ -
For some time now, vivaldi has been working with strong delays, regardless of whether it's stable or snapshot. For example, turning on a page shortcut on the home screen is very random and once it opens quickly, it opens up to 5 minutes. I don't know, maybe Vivaldi is regressing?

New error pages? Got this by ctrl-clicking
https://
in addressfield when on this forum — but happens on everyhttp
orhttps
page I tested.
-
@potmeklecbohdan Something's fishy with ctrl+clicking on the protocol. For me it searches "https" using my default search engine.
-
@LonM Disable searching in addressfield and try again. Do you see that, or just a normal error page like if you'd type it manually?
-
@slake: If you are running update-widevine manually for a system wide install you must add the switch
--system
-
@potmeklecbohdan Yeah, if I disable searching in address field I get an error on ctrl+clicking the protcol.
-
@LonM But is it white, or black?
-
@potmeklecbohdan Mine is white. Do you use an OS-based dark mode?
-
@LonM Ah, that was it. I don't have “Prefer dark theme” on, but use a dark one. But it's strange that if I type it manually, I get a light one.

Default thumbnail replaced custom thumbnail for YouTube
Same here, not for the first time after an update; not a big deal but I do check it each update now.

on the address bar, how did you change the bookmark icon to a heart?

-
@Gwen-Dragon What can you confirm? Going to
http://https/
, or black error page only on this occasion (otherwise white; another condition for dark one is dark Gtk theme)? -
OK, so it follows the Gtk theme more often. But still not always.
-
@Gwen-Dragon Where do you test it? Could you please try on Linux with
- Gtk “prefer dark theme” off
- Gtk 2 & 3 theme set to something dark
with
- ctrl-clicking the protocol (https)
- writing the URL you were redirected to in a new tab
Redirect reported as

I now checked some of my old reports and it looks like these are fixed, but not mentioned in changelogs:
VB-50531
Some icons in addressfield are not fully styledVB-50532
Capture page always resets to “Save as PNG”VB-53853
Reopened tab is placed at the end of tab barVB-57433
Preview in add bookmark dialog doesn't display
-
@Gwen-Dragon Also when you type it manually?
