-Release Notes for Rapid Photo Downloader 0.9.0
+Release Notes for Rapid Photo Downloader 0.9.1
==============================================
- - On certain Linux distributions the program's icons may be missing,
- including icons for menus. To resolve this problem, from the command line
- issue the following command:
-
- python3 -m pip install --user PyQt5
-
- This command will upgrade the version of PyQt and Qt for your user (the
- rest of the system will be unaffected). When Rapid Photo Downloader is next
- run, the icons should be displayed.
-
- On some systems, Rapid Photo Downloader cannot use gstreamer to generate
- video thumbnails. These systems include Fedora 24 and Fedora 25, Ubuntu
- 16.10 and 17.04, LinuxMint 18.1, and openSUSE 42.2 and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
-
- - On systems with version 0.18 of libraw, Rapid Photo Downloader cannot
- render thumbnails for raw images that don't have embedded thumbnails,
- such as DNG files from Android phones. Rapid Photo Downloader uses rawkit
- to interface with libraw, and rawkit 0.5.0 is incompatible with libraw
- 0.18.
-
- - When running the program from the command line, if you see a message
- something like this:
-
- You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 9.0.1 is available.
- You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
-
- This message can be ignored. However, if you do want to upgrade pip, the
- safest way to upgrade is like this:
+ video thumbnails for all common video files. Install the good and libav
+ plugins for gstreamer to solve this problem. In Debian and Ubuntu-like
+ systems, the packages are gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-plugins-good
+ On Fedora, the packages are gstreamer1-plugins-good and gstreamer1-libav.
+ Fedora users can enable the rpmfusion.org free repository to be able to
+ install gstreamer1-libav.
+
+ - With rawkit being updated to 0.6.0, and the addition of extra plugins to
+ gstreamer, many photos and videos whose thumbnail could not previously be
+ displayed now can be. However, to view those thumbnails for those files
+ that have been previously scanned, purging the thumbnail cache is needed.
+ You can purge the thumbnail cache via the Preferences dialog, accessed via
+ the main menu.
- python3 -m pip install --upgrade --user pip
