webcamoid - 9.1.0

Published by hipersayanX over 1 year ago

ChangeLog

  • Redesigned UI to work in smaler screens.

  • Webcamoid is mostly working fine in Android, with minimum bugs.

  • Sustituting Mac native code with third-party libraries:

    CoreAudio -> PortAudio and SDL (Audio capture and playback)
AVFoundation -> FFmpeg (Screen capture)
AVFoundation -> QCamera (Camera capture)

    this way it will make much easier for me to maintain the code.
    Also not providing anymore pre-compiled binary packages.
    More information at https://github.com/webcamoid/webcamoid/issues/584.

  • The flatpak package is now fully working.

  • Allow using an image file as video source (issue #438).

  • Full support for screen readers and keyboard navigation.

  • Added image capture to clipboard (thanks to @iam-TJ!)

  • Added PortAudio and SDL as alternative audio device plugins.

  • Added QCamera as alternative camera capture plugin.

  • Added FFmpeg screen capture support.

  • The virtual camera from GNU/Linux can also be installed in non x86 platforms.

  • video synchronization can be enebled/disabled on playback (thanks to @iam-TJ!)

  • New video Effects: AnalogTV, Zoom, Crop, Opacity.

  • Removed Scale and Scroll video effects.

  • PrimariesColors plugin renamed to Saturated.

  • Improved virtual camera detection. Webcamoid will only offer akvcam or AkVirtualCamera in the only case no other virtual camera was installed, or in the case it was manually selected.

  • Allow positioning Webcamoid widow on any screen (thanks to @iam-TJ!)

  • Added uninstall target in cmake build to aid development cycles (thanks to @iam-TJ!).

  • Fixed virtual camera install in GNU/Linux.

  • Translation files are not embeded in the binary, more translations can be added and tested without recompiling.

  • Fixed ALSA deices reading.

  • Properly save enabled and disabled plugins.
