AnnodexViewer Firefox Extension: Release Notes

Beta 6 (0.6)

Updated ANXLoader.js file for conformance compatibility with Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.1 and above.
Corrected display output for non-Latin Unicode character encoded CMML text descriptions
Corrected Timed URI display, updated Send Link function to include ID URI Links
Added metadata display panel in user interface
Playback error testing to determine if playback of media is correctly functioning. Audio Annodex files are not currently supported in this release.

Support for end-time specifiers, e.g. ?t=20/35 will play from 20 to 35 seconds
Slightly changed user interface, to make skinning easier
Jumping to another clip in the same file should now work reliably
Installation on UNIX systems should now work when the Firefox profile directory wasn't in ~/.mozilla/firefox/foo.bar. In particular, this should fix installation problems on Debian GNU/Linux systems.
Playback of CMML files via file:// URLs is now supported: media files are loaded from the /stream/import tag of the CMML.

Media playback should be much more stable on Linux/PPC now, thanks to the correct compilation flags used being used for the VLC media engine
Added support for the <link rel="edit"/> XML tag

Video display on Windows and Macintosh systems can be resized wider than 600 pixels wide again
The Table of Contents for the video now automatically scrolls to keep the currently active clip displayed on-screen if the "Selected clip follows movie time" checkbox is ticked
Improved browser stability when double-clicking on a clip to jump to that time position
Double-clicking on a clip to jump to it now doesn't make the selected clip item move back and forth
Browsing history should be accurate now
Linux VLC media engine no longer requires installation of the liboss, libxvideo and libx11 plugins to ~/.mozilla/plugins/

Major changes between beta 1 and beta 2:

The clip starting time is now displayed in a tooltip when you hover your mouse over the clip
Added "Email" button to Send Link dialog box
Jumping to a different clip inside a video will update your browsing history, so the Back button takes you back to the previous point in time
Jumping from a webpage to an Annodex file with a timed URL now doesn't play the first second of the video before playing it back from the proper time point
Usable with Firefox 0.9 (beta 1 required Firefox 1.0)
Linux support
On Windows, the maximum size of the video window is unnecessarily restricted. This limitation is there due to window resizing bugs encountered in the Linux version of Firefox; it will be corrected in Beta 3.
