totem 0.99.10

Heya,

Totem "I'm on BBC2 now" 0.99.10 is out for your enjoyment.

Totem is movie player for the Gnome desktop based on xine. It features a playlist, a full-screen mode, seek and volume controls, as well as a pretty complete keyboard navigation.

It comes with added functionality such as: - Video thumbnailer for GNOME
- Webcam utility (in development)
- Nautilus properties tab

Requirements

• GNOME 2.6 and GTK+ 2.4

And for the backend:
- xine-lib 1.0 rc3c or better
or
- gstreamer 0.7.x or 0.8.x

It is advised that distributors ship the xine backend by default.

If Totem locks up on startup, before showing the main window, please read:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111349
and for possible work-arounds:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111880

The upstream bug is:
http://bugs.xfree86.org//cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=260

Changes

• Use the new GtkFileChooser, and other GTK+ 2.4-related changes
• Make NVidia TV-Out work again
• Remove the (broken) automatic downloader and the CURL dependency
• Show an error message when the audio output isn't available
• Better error handling in the GStreamer backend
• Fix a bug in directory loading with newer glib versions
• Remove the builtin authentication manager to use the one provided by the GNOME libraries, fix a deadlock on startup when authentication is required
• Make vanity support Linux 2.6

• Added a man page for totem
• Install handlers for mms, pnm and rtsp protocols in the xine-lib backend

gtkmm 2.3.8

Special notes:

The API is now frozen. Only incredibly important API changes will be allowed before the final fully-frozen gtkmm 2.4.0 release on April 12th.

gtkmm and glibmm 2.4:

gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. The 2.3.x tarballs are the unstable development series that will become the stable gtkmm 2.4. gtkmm 2.3/2.4 will wrap any additional API in GTK+ 2.4. glibmm is now a separate module, for use in non-GUI software.

gtkmm 2.3/2.4 installs in parallel with gtkmm 2.2, so you can install this unstable library without the risk of breaking existing applications. This allows us to break ABI and API, though we will try not to break API unless it is absolutely necessary.

We recommend the use of jhbuild or garnome for testing in a separate prefix.

The stable (API/ABI-frozen) gtkmm 2.4.0 will be released soon. gtkmm is on the official GNOME Platform Bindings release schedule: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings/

Changes

gtkmm 2.3.8:

• Gtk:
  • Action: Added set_sensitive() and set_tooltip(). (Murray Cumming)
  • Settings: Added some properties. (Bryan Forbes)
  • TargetList: Added a create() method. (Bryan Forbes)
  • TreeModel: Rename 2 of the foreach() methods, to foreach_iter() and foreach_path(), because they are ambiguous with libsigc++ 2. (Murray Cumming)
  • ListStore/TreeStore: Added insert_after(), because it is apparently faster with many rows. (Murray Cumming)
  • IconTheme: Corrected refcounting of get_default() and get_for_screen(). (Bryan Forbes)
