RELEASE NOTES version 7.1

New features

  • You can set some global parameters via a <script data-cpu-audio> tag in the <head> of the host page (#185)
  • Can scroll the viewport of the page on the player when clicking on a temporal link. Parametrable setting (#60)
  • Being able to not include global.css on host page (#181)
  • Automated ID prefix for not identified <audio> is now parametrable (#186)

Corrections

  • Hash parameters are now case insensitive
  • Instantiation may be missed during the page lifecycle. Better way to check if host page DOM is really ready or not
  • Application chapters_builder should stop zero-ing time input in some situations
  • Better style on focused <summary>
  • Do not insert global <style> in page if webcomponent is not supported by the browser (I know, this is a late situation)

Back-end

  • Node 18 support for build (incomplete)
  • Locales are modularized : each language has its own file, in src/locales (#189)
  • Some libs moved in ./src sub-directories, big sources were split in functionality segments.

RELEASE NOTES version 7.0.3

New features

  • Panels unfoldable via the use of <details open><summary> (#75)
  • Sticky panel title (#75)
  • Adding a CSS variable --cpu-line-height to fine tune line-height property (was hard-coded to 1.2, I needed a 1.0 for Roboto on CPU website)

Corrections

  • Should no more use numbered headers <hx>, but generic tags instead, to not confuse a11y tools
  • Should no more use <h5> for title <strong id="title"> must be enough
  • Correcting title="" on cue points, should not put HTML tags anymore (#178)
  • Updating npm version due to a vulnerability
  • Updating webpack parameters, to really use native imports
  • Alas, the cpu.audio.js built goes upper than 50 000 bytes. But so close ;)

RELEASE NOTES version 7.0.2

  • Changing license from GPL to LGPL (#174)
  • Removing an example that incits a bad habit
  • Correct credit for @tdd
  • Regression on <a> tags with actions (#170), released as 7.0.1
  • Simplify examples/Usage_controller.html

RELEASE NOTES version 7.0

INCOMPATIBLES CHANGES : Nothing incompatible changed is you only used HTML layout or CSS variables. But, there may be some work to adapt previous cpu-audio.js (< 7.0) to cpu-audio version and above 7, only and only if you used the javascript API on document.CPU or component.CPU. We hope Javascript coders will enjoy most of thoses changes, and discuss about them in our tickets.

RELEASE NOTES version 6.6.3

New features

  • Colour of the chapter lines under the time-line is now configurable (--cpu-cue)
  • Colour of the border points in timeline, when you play a end-specified segment (as in #0,60), is now configurable (--cpu-timeline-limits)
  • Live chapter editor has been deeply revised
  • New public API functions, mainly on planes and points editions
  • Custom events are fired, (documented in API page). They are CPU_ prefixed
  • API get inject specific styles features. Very useful for specific annotations presentations. (Preparatory works for #76)
  • Adding some examples how to use API (#66, #101)
  • Adding a convert.durationIso public method, datetime="" attribute in <time> needing a specific duration format in ISO 8601
  • User-defined annotation planes can have cue times hidden (#106)
  • Users can add volume and playrate controls, but we let them program it, as documented here

Corrections

  • Check race condition or already called web-commponent
  • Interface may be stucked in loading state. Now, we cannot display "wait" mode if a first play didn't occured first.
  • Annotations points are sorted by timecode (#68)
  • Reducing repaints on panels point draws
  • Some events are passive, others are better once-called
  • Won't try to autoplay anymore, as this behaviour is really annoying. You can still revert to this mode with document.CPU.autoplay parameter (#103)
  • Returns from document.CPU.jumpIdAt and trigger.hashOrder aren't used. We can async them
  • We try to preload duration metadata when the mouse cursors goes over the timeline on a not know duration and not streamed source (#88)
  • github-pages trigger strange problems, numerous CPU-audio instances
  • Chrome returned more than one activeCue, strange regression
  • Lot of corrections in chapters panels/tracks due to surprising behaviour of Chrome :
    • multiple TextTracks.activeCues creating race conflicts but only in some specific conditions,
    • chapter tracks not displayed if duration not seen in time, refreshing timeline when duration is certainly known,
    • unuseful refreshes
  • Removed Chapter editor from github pages due to a sync problem. Now available as a standalone and not yet skinned page with better explanations

Back-end

  • Tests and examples moved in their own subdirs
  • Using arrow functions, modernizing code
  • Updating Google Closure to v20200719
    • Removing --jscomp_off internetExplorerChecks
    • Moved to ECMAScript 2019 as output (Object.fromEntries seems enough available)
    • Annotations updated
    • Erroneous @brief annotations changed to @summary
    • … but a lot of bugs in Closure, as TextTracks objects aren't declared as iterable, a surprising “Property replaceAll never defined on String” and so on…
  • We have a surprising bug in Chrome that avoid to use audiotag.currentTime=<number> ONLY if the source is hosted on localhost, if your local server doesn't support HTTP response 206 (partial content). If you need to local test on Chrome, please user file:/// protocol or a complete web server.
  • An applications sub-directory is created by the way
  • Mask error from Google Closure that doesn't recognize string.replace().replaceAll()
  • Primitives for package github (#86). “to be done”

RELEASE NOTES version 6.5.1

A lot of bug fixes, ameliorations and complements for streamed media, a11y issues, and some tricks documented. Version 6.5 got a small graphic glitch. This one weights again under 50,000 bytes.

New features

Corrections

  • Action icon is a three-dots instead of a share (#92)
  • Blocked autoplay may do loop on events and stressing reloading audio source (#93)
  • Use css contain to help browser perfs (#85)
  • Correct play from position on the timeline when metadata not preloaded (#88)
  • Stop playing an audiotag when scrobbing another one (mainly for Chrome, (#89))
  • Removed vestigial elements : Unuseful “elapsed” progress bar and element.CPU.update_buffered() were re-activated during beta and did graphic glitch.
  • Document ways to generate pictures for waveform="" attribute.
  • Do not intercept keys when modified (as in Alt+← #98)
  • Have a proper chapters list : nav > ul > li
  • Some CSS tweaks to help browser perfs (#85)
  • “wait” animation is now more consistent (#93)
  • Avoid inconsequent DOM refreshes (#28)
