Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you read that correctly. OpenLP 1.9.9 is the
|
|
last of the beta series. From now on, OpenLP is in release candidate
|
|
phase! Release candidate phase means that we will not be adding any more
|
|
features and will be concentrating on fixing bugs.
|
|
|
|
We believe that all the functionality which was in version 1.2 has now
|
|
been included in version 2.0, and for the next few months we will be
|
|
focusing our efforts on fixing as many outstanding bugs as we can.
|
|
|
|
Features added:
|
|
|
|
- Transparent themes, for background videos (theme video backgrounds
|
|
not yet possible)
|
|
- On-the-fly changing of backing tracks
|
|
- Repeating of backing track list
|
|
- Use `VLC for displaying
|
|
videos <http://manual.openlp.org/configure.html?highlight=vlc#available-media-players>`__
|
|
- not on Mac OS X yet, unfortunately. (Note: To be able to use this
|
|
feature the `VLC media player <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/>`__ has
|
|
to be installed on your computer.)
|
|
- Search songs by song book/number
|
|
- Configurable `automatic service file
|
|
names <http://manual.openlp.org/configure.html#default-service-name>`__
|
|
using the date
|
|
- The reference format used to look up Bible verses has been localised,
|
|
and can be changed along with the interface language
|
|
- Configure the "next slide" action when at the end of the current item
|
|
in the slide controller to either move to the first slide again, to
|
|
the next slide of the next item, or nothing.
|
|
|
|
Of course we have also fixed over 46 bugs in this release!
|
|
|
|
The full list of changes can be seen on `our launchpad
|
|
page <https://launchpad.net/openlp/+milestone/1.9.9>`__.
