Google Chrome har fått ännu en uppdatering och i den ny versionen 0.3.154.3 ska man löst en hel del buggar med bland annat webbläsarkrascher och plugins som ger bättre stöd för Windows Media Player. Kanske mest intressant är att man även verkar ha löst videouppspelningsbuggen som undertecknad m.fl haft stora problem med i otaliga webbläsare, bland annat Firefox 3 och Opera. Flashbaserade videofiler har en tendens att stanna efter 1-3 sekunder och detta ska nu alltså vara löst i den senaste versionen av Google Chrome.



Mer information om den nya Chrome-versionen finner ni i Googles release notes här nedan. Tyvärr verkar det handla om en utvecklaruppdatering men vi hoppas att Google snart släpper uppdateringen i en skarp version.


Release Notes 0.3.154.3

Oct 16, 2008 2:04 AM posted by Mark Larson








Reminder: please file (or update existing) issues at http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues. 


The release contains mostly bug fixes for 0.3.154.0, but it also introduces a new behavior for downloading files that could be executable content:




  • r3285 Changes the download behavior for files that could execute code (exe, dll, bat, etc.). These files are now downloaded to unconfirmed_*.download files. In the browser, you’re asked if you want to accept the download. Only after you click Save is the unconfirmed_*.download file converted to the real file name. Unconfirmed downloads are deleted when Google Chrome exits.



Other Notable Changes


User Interface





  • r3177r3207 Enables sorting columns in the password manager, the list of URLs to load at startup, and the Google Chrome task manager. (Issue 294995)
  • r3180 Adds a command line switch to start the browser in incognito mode. Thanks to Yarin.Kaul@gmail.com for the contribution. (Issue 17902012)
  • r3189 Fixes the new bookmark bubble so that pressing enter with focus on the Edit button actually opens the editor. Thanks to  developer0420@gmail.com for the fix. (Issue 2863)
  • r3209 Changes the text in the About dialog to link to credits for other open source software used in Google Chrome and to the Terms of Service.
  • r3264 Adds support for extended validation (EV) certificates issued ssued by Comodo using the AddTrust root. (Issue 2170)


Plugins





  • r3211 Fixes a problem with videos stopping after 1 second (Issue 115)
  • r3272 Allows plugins to post forms (for example, Adobe Reader forms). (Issue 629)
  • r3276 Adds better support for Windows Media player, specifically improving detection for that plugin at bloomberg.com. (Issue 2846)
  • r3327 Runs plugins at a normal priority so that they do not cause the browser to become unresponsive.

JavaScript/Web API





  • r3198 Optimizes the content-type detector (’MIME sniffer’) to do fewer, more reliable checks based on data collected during the Google Chrome Beta.
  • r3231 Fixes a problem with page content disappearing behind plugin windows. For example, when you type a search on a page playing a YouTube video, the search suggestions stay visible instead of going behind the video window. (Issue 1788)
  • r3269 Change the minimum timer resolution for setTimeout() to 4 milliseconds (up from 1ms). At 1ms, some pages would spin in tight loops and consume 100% of CPU.

Crashes in 154.0




  • r3172 Fixes a crash when using the spell check Add to dictionary… fucntion. (Issue 3039)
  • r3278 Fixes a browser crash on tablet PCs running Microsoft Windows Vista.
