In addition to managed rooms (the new name for ‘controlled rooms’), the second beta includes a major new feature that allows for viewers to indicate that they are ready to watch. Please let us know what you think by e-mailing dev@syncplay.pl
To accommodate this change, the interface has also been re-worked. Check out the “Window” menu item if you want to bring playback controls back into the main window.
New beta Windows installer available from: https://syncplay.pl/Syncplay_1.3.0_Beta_Setup_[2015_01_25].exe
Portable Windows version is available from: https://syncplay.pl/syncplay-v1.3.0-beta2-portable.zip
(If you are using the Git version of Syncplay, just update to Git HEAD)
Note (2015-01-25): The public servers will not be updated to support 1.3.0 until tomorrow, so you’ll need to run your own server to try out these features.
Minor changes:
- Some VLC bugfixes
- Allows for longer offsets (to support chapter offsets with VLC)
- Changes default program to run syncplay (python to python2) in *nix
- Adds “load media stream URL” menu item to main GUI.
