Changelog

cheese (2.27.3-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Set default resolution to the highest one with a non jerky (higher than
      15fps) framerate, fixes bug
    - Lower max-delay and max-page-delay oggmux properties from 5 to 0.5
      seconds. Should prevent out of sync audio in recorded videos and
      hopefully fix bug (LP: #241422)
    - Don't access effects string after free. This was causing the first effect
      stored in gconf to not be restored at startup, fixes bug 584186
    - Get rid of GtkAspectFrame, it doesn't really suit our needs, it hardcodes
      an aspect ratio that obviously cannot be valid for every format webcams
      support. Render the video directly to the drawing area with no external
      aspect ratio restriction. Eventually fixes since the aspectframe was
      adding some extra padding between the video and the window border.
    - Almost every available gstreamer videosink can display black bars around
      the video keeping its aspect ratio. Enable it if available.
      Black bars look a lot nicer than the grey color of the underlying
      gtkwindow displayed with the aspectframe.
    - Properly forward expose events to GstXOverlay.
    - Avoid ugly flickering on window resize. Let gstxoverlay take full control
      of the drawing area window. Prevent gtk from drawing the background and
      remove the flickering caused by its internal double buffering.
    - Remove initial black bars (at least for 4:3 webcams). Set a default window
      size that fits nicely the video aspect ratio so that black bars are not
      drawn until a manual resize.
