The update applied today (c2e12b89) brings with it the following changes.
New features
- Album folder view now supports video thumbnails.
- Removed OSFLV and BitGravity FLV/MP4 video playback solutions. We now use FlowPlayer 3.2.7 for both features. This fixes the annoying loader animation at the center of videos.
- The transcode video feature has been moved to the top menu "Edit", and a new option to remove a transcoded video is available.
- Video transcoding now supports original resolution. Also fixed aspect ratio bug with 4:3 videos.
- Page title can be forced to always use site title.
- Arabic (Morocco) was added as a content and translation language.
- Added robots.txt so that search engines won't index uninteresting content.
Bugfixes
- Updated base URL to Lexin because UDIR modified their service location.
- The speech synthesis feature is now (again) available to anonymous users.
- Fix problem with malformed HTML entities inside quiz markup when using TinyMCE/WYSIWYG editor.
- Fixed various JavaScript regressions by upgrading to jQuery 1.7.0.
- Upgraded SoundManager MP3 playback library to v297a-20111030, which fixes a playback issue on Internet Explorer 9.
- Fixed character set encoding issue when unpacking zip file when archive had non-UTF8 filenames.
- User lists now sort according to language definition.
- Self-registration group now shows when editing a site not the same as the site being modified.
Enhancements
- Substantial code cleanup in quiz editor. Should make the code more robust.
- Upgraded to version 5.0.7 of JUpload (our multiple file uploader). This new version uses UTF-8, so filenames should now be preserved correctly, even for non-Latin character sets.
- Request handlers no longer hit the database to figure out if they should be available to anonymous users.
