version 3.3.3
  - Pre-release version bump to 3.3.3
  - Do not dist non-existent gnome-doc-utils.make
    Fixes bug 666252.
  - Improve tests for libcheese-gtk
    Split the tests so that there is one per widget. Add CheeseFlash test.
  - Improve tests for CheeseFileUtil
    Add burst_reset test. Add photo and video path tests. Improve existing
    burst test.
  - Split tests for libcheese and libcheese-gtk
  - Add simple test suite, bug 663148
  - Add non-interactive test infrastructure
    This is just the Makefile changes, the test itself was written
    separately.
  - Allocate CheeseVideoFormat with slices
  - Check for correct types in public API
    Use g_return_*_if_fail() to print critical warnings and return sensible
    values if the expected type was not supplied.
  - Add CheeseEffect accessors to VAPI file
  - Fix tag in help
  - Fix Latvian and Galician help translation
    The switch to yelp-tools for building the Mallard help uncovered a
    couple of invalid translations, due to incorrect closing tags.
  - Use yelp-tools to build help, not gnome-doc-utils
  - Simplify autogen.sh
  - Check for a valid effect in CheeseEffect
    Check that the effect passed to CheeseEffect functions is valid, and
    return NULL and print a critical warning otherwise.
  - Revert "effects: user ** in doc-comments to enable color highlighting"
    This reverts commit 27b6b05723376c3ea5bf178bed59dd973f302e0a.

    gtk-doc comments, started with the double-asterisk sequence, should only
    be used for public symbols.
  - effect: add cheese_effect_get_name and cheese_effect_get_pipeline_desc
    Adding getters to save an allocation.

    Requested in: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654448#c53
  - effects: user ** in doc-comments to enable color highlighting
  - libcheese: effects: don't print CRITICAL errors if directory doesn't exist
    Applications should use cheese_effect_load_effects to load the default
    set of effects.

    cheese_effect_load_effects() calls
    cheese_effect_load_effects_from_directory() with a list of predefined
    places to search for effects. Some of those directories may not exist.

    cheese_effect_load_effects_from_directory() shouldn't emit CRITICAL
    messages in this condition.

version 3.3.2
  - Pre-release version bump to 3.3.2
  - Remove marshaller generation rules
    The generic marshallers, supplied by GLib, are used instead.
  - Make preferences dialog more netbook-friendly
    Fixes bug 663146.
  - Convert deprecated GtkVBox and GtkHBox to GtkBox
    Fixes bug 661661.
  - Add chapter IDs to documentation
  - Add Cheese architecture diagram to documentation
    Fixes bug 664333.
  - Set camerabin to playing before start-capture
    Fixes bug 663998, with the camerabin documentation being updated in bug
    664048.
  - Use private GObject pointer in Widget and Chooser
    Additionally, remove some dead code.
  - Add gtk-doc comments to UmCropArea
    Currently, UmCropArea is internal (and will likely stay that way), so
    the comments are not included in the generated documentation.
  - Use switch statement to select cases
  - Use better API to notify and install properties
    Changed g_object_notify_by_pspec() to g_object_notify() and
    g_object_class_install_property() to
    g_object_class_install_properties(). Added properties static array to
    hold properties. Added enum constants identifying properties and
    sentinels for array length definitions. Fixes bug 663098.
  - Improve CheeseAvatarChooser documentation
    Add documentation for private methods in CheeseAvatarChooser.
  - Improve CheeseEffect documentation
    Document the private methods in CheeseEffect. Simplify effect
    construction, by making the name and pipeline-desc properties
    construct-only. Improve some variables names.
  - Improve CheeseFileUtil filename handling
    Use GDateTime to format the time string. Use switch statements when
    selecting cases from an enum. Use g_build_filename() rather than
    g_strjoin(G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S, ...).
  - Improve CheeseCamera documentation
    Document most of the private methods in CheeseCamera, and rename the
    device-name property to device-node.
  - Improve CheeseCameraDevice documentation
    Document most of the private methods in CheeseCameraDevice, and rename
    some variables to more closely match the property names.
  - Improve CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor documentation
  - Make CheeseFlash a GtkWindow rather than a GObject
    Additionally, add further gtk-doc-like comments to the flash
    implementation.
  - Comment Vala methods with Valadoc markup
    Add basic documentation to all methods in Vala sources.
  - Add hotplug support to preferences dialog
    Adding and removing camera devices in the CheeseCamera is now propagated
    to the preferences dialog UI. Partially fixes bug 603612.
  - Correct default brightness in the schema to zero
  - Improve GSettings schema text and include ranges
  - Also use the countdown duration for burst mode
  - Add a countdown-duration key to GSettings schema
    Add a new GSettings key to allow configuration of the duration of the
    countdown when taking a photo. Partially fixes bug 594267.
  - Bump required Vala version to 0.13.2
    Required for Clutter.TableLayout in clutter-1.0.vapi, which was added
    when Vala switched to use GIR files.
  - Use STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER
  - Use Vala ‘as’ operator where possible
    Use the as operator when fetching widgets from GtkBuilder files, to do a
    runtime type-check.
  - Include the version in the man page
  - Add generated man page to CLEANFILES
  - Fix a typo so that the man page is generated
  - Fix gtk-doc checks when srcdir != builddir
  - Add man page, generated with xsltproc
  - Add help button to the preferences dialog
  - Improve documentation to pass gtk-doc tests
    Add the deprecated API index to the documentation. Complete the rename
    of cheese_camera_set_device_by_dev_file() to
    cheese_camera_set_device_by_device_node(). Add missing documentation to
    reach 100% symbol coverage.
  - Enable gtk-doc tests during make check
  - Check for GStreamer plugins required at runtime
    Add a GStreamer plugin check to configure.ac, which checks for
    individual plugins with gst-inspect, rather than relying on the plugins
    being provided by checking for GStreamer pkg-config files. The check is
    non-fatal, as the plugins are not build-time dependencies.
  - Bump pkg-config requirement to 0.24
    Version 0.24 or greater of pkg-config is required in order to avoid the
    duplicate AC_SUBST macro calls for PKG_CHECK_MODULES substitutions.
  - Remove unused FULL_LIBEXECDIR from configure.ac
  - Add private pointers to libcheese GObject structs
    Speed up access to the private struct of the GObject by adding a
    pointer, so that *_GET_PRIVATE does not have to called each time. Create
    a typedef for the private structures in the headers, and hide the
    structs from the documentation by placing them inside a private
    subsection.
  - Add basic documentation for remaining public API
    Add cheese-widget-private.h back to files ignored by gtk-doc. Add basic
    documentation for the remainder of the public API. Use UUID instead of
    ID or UDI. Add blurb and nick to all documented properties. Add
    CheeseVideoFormat documentation. Use unsigned integers where the values
    are always positive. Sprinkle some const qualifiers. Add some filename
    GObject Introspection annotations.
  - Update TODO
  - Fix several compiler warnings
    Add some missing prototypes, correct some pointer type mismatches, return
    a value from functions that returns values and improve GError handling.
  - Use gnome-common compiler warnings
    Additionally, enable silent Automake rules by default so that warnings are
    more visible.
  - Add more classes to gtk-doc documentation
    Add basic documentation for CheeseCamera, CheeseFileUtil and CheeseFlash
    classes. Split the API reference into libcheese and libcheese-gtk
    chapters.
  - Add CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor::removed callback
    Added CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor::removed signal callback function in
    CheeseCamera. Fixes bug 662852.
  - Improved CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor::added signal
    CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor:added has now a CheeseCameraDevice argument.
    CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor is also now a member of CheeseCamera.
  - Add a long description to the DOAP file
  - help: fixed another typo
  - help: moving introduction page back to .page
  - help: fixed typo in Makefile.am
  - help: updated Makefile.am
  - Overhaul the libcheese documentation
    Add documentation for CheeseCameraDevice. Remove bogus XML included in
    the library overview. Add section documentation to all classes, and mark
    them as unstable. Add GObject and GObjectClass struct documentation.
  - help: renamed pages and rearranged sections
    Moved all pages, except introduction.page, into sections to make index
    look nicer.
  - Use license-type in the about dialog
  - Connect thumbnail nav button signals
    The thumb nav widget crashed when clicking the buttons to scroll the
    thumbnail view. This was caused by connecting to the wrong signals:
    ‘button-pressed-event’ and ‘button-released-event’, rather than
    ‘pressed’ and ‘released’. There was also some duplicate code for
    creating the left button, which led to a GtkButton being leaked when
    the thumb nav was created. Fixes bug 660686.
  - Remove obsolete MAINTAINERS file
    http://live.gnome.org/Git/FAQ#How_do_I_add_a_description_to_the_git_web_view.3F__What_is_this_.22blah.doap.22.3F
  - Remove obsolote cicl script
  - Increase the photo count in burst mode to 100000
    Fixes bug 659977
  - Use an idle handler to generate thumbnails
    A thread was used for generating thumbnails for CheeseThumbView, but
    this had problems with concurrent access to the GtkListStore which
    backs the thumb view, as in bug 648936. A simpler approach is to use an
    idle handler, which avoids the need for acquiring the GDK lock.

version 3.3.1
  - configure.ac: Bump cheese version to 3.3.1
  - Update .gitignore
    Additionally, remove INSTALL, as it is created during autoreconf.
  - Work around an error during uninstall of distcheck
  - Convert src subdirectory to build non-recursively
  - Convert documentation to build non-recursively
  - Make data directory build non-recursively
    Additionally, make the GSettings schema translatable.
  - Convert tests to build non-recursively
  - Convert libcheese to build non-recursively
  - Update toplevel Makefile.am to more modern style
  - Update configure.ac to more modern style
  - Make preferences dialog layout HIG-compliant
    The layout of the preferences dialog was ported to a new one that
    conforms to the HIG and is also based on GtkGrid containers. Fixes bug
    661651.
  - Prefer a dark GTK+ theme, bug 660628
  - Do not crash if gnome-video-effects is not present
    Also, print a warning using warning(). Fixes bug 654671.
  - Add David King as a maintainer
  - Do not call _init() functions inside CheeseWidget
    GObject construction cannot fail, which is incompatible with calling
    _init() functions which can fail inside a constructor. Users of
    CheeseWidget must instead initialise the relevant toolkits (Clutter-GTK+
    and Gst-Clutter) themselves, and gracefully fail before
    cheese_widget_new() is called. Fixes the remainder of bug 654913 and
    also bug 660400.

version 3.1.91.1
  - configure.ac: Bump version to 3.1.91.1 release
    Bump SONAME of libcheese and libcheese-gtk to be greater than those from
    3.0.2.
    Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658342
  - Added/Updated Documentation
    - es, courtesy of Jorge González

version 3.1.91
  - Fix cheese_effect_load_effects prototype
  - help: Reviewed and improved new Mallard help
  - help: Added Mallard help, removed DocBook help
  - cheese-effects: implement loading cheese effects in libcheese
  - cheese-camera: fix 2 gst object reference leaks
  - cheese-camera: fix 3 string memory leaks
  - about: Update credits according to AUTHORS file
  - cheese-camera: Print debug of messages
  - thumb-view: start monitoring at startup
    Before this we started monitoring each for each photo/video
    capture. That was a bit inefficient as the directories in which photos
    and videos are saved are known and don't change during the program's
    lifetime.
    Now we start the monitoring at startup only once.
  - cheese-camera: make effect previews scale with the cheese window
    Before this patch, when you scaled Cheese's main window, in the the
    effects preview mode, the window would scale but the 9 videos inside
    the window would remain at the same size.
    I had to remove the fixed scaling from the effects pipeline and let
    the size of the textures be governed by the layout manager.
    Now when you scale the Cheese effect preview window all 9 videos are
    automatically scaled (keeping aspect-ratio) to fill the available space.
  - libcheese: aligned button to center
  - add gio-2.0 and x11 to PKG_CHECK_MODULES
  - cheese-gtk.pc: Update 'requires private' to gtk3
  - window: use the right signature for button-release-event callback
    The signature is (ClutterActor, ClutterEvent). Using the event source
    there is wrong, as that's not guaranteed to be the same object emitting
    the callback (i.e. the object emitting could be just forwarding an event
    coming from one of its children).
    https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647677
  - libcheese: don't leak the source element
  - Updated Telugu Translations done by Praveen Illa
  - Updated Telugu translations done by Praveen Illa
  - cheese-camera: Setting camera to playing after forced stop
  - cheese-camera: Emit signal when video is saved
  - .gitignore: Added new test executables
  - cheese-test-flash: Quit when window is closed
  - cheese-thumb-view: guard thread unsafe operations
  - ui: handle "delete-event" signal at Preferences dialog, fixes bug #647229
    the "close" event triggered by the escape key was destroyng the dialog, so
    when the user tried to open the Preferences dialog again what appeared was
    an empty/tiny window. Handle the "delete-event" connecting it with
    hide_on_delete() solved the problem.
  - lib: fix leaks and simplify cheese_fileutil_get_new_media_filename
  - lib: properly prefix photo/video suffix constants in cheese namespace
  - lib: move glib-object.h before G_BEGIN_DECLS in cheese-fileutil.h
    Fixes a build warning about implicit declaration.
  - lib: return const char * when getting photo/video paths
    Update all uses of both methods accordingly.
  - lib: no need to declare variable to retun photo/video paths
  - lib: add some missing introspection annotations in cheese-camera
  - set default value for saturation to 1, fixes bug #647228

version 2.91.91.1
  - Drop version to 2.91.91.1
    The tarball release of 2.91.91 was generated with a tarball release of
    Vala that was affected by bug 642885. This is a point release, that
    contains a workaround for that bug until a new Vala release (0.11.7) is
    out.

  - Correct some configure requirements

version 2.91.91
  - use camerabin for taking photos and videos
  - Migrated from libunique to GtkApplication
  - Ported to GTK+ 3.x
  - build: Update autotools configuration
  - cheese-camera: Unsetting preview-caps after photo
    After taking a photo to pixbuf, we set preview-caps to NULL so regular
    photo doesn't send the preview message.
  - cheese-camera: Fixing take_photo_pixbuf
    Method cheese_camera_take_photo_pixbuf was not working. Now it is
    implemented using camerabin's features. We set preview-caps in camerabin
    and get the buffer for the photo via message on the bus.
    Signals are now only emitted if the capture was successful.
  - cheese-camera: Set video recording options
    Set encoding and multiplexing options.
  - svg overlay effects can now be added
  - cheese-camera: Set filter-caps property
    Set filter-caps property to avoid camerabin default of video/x-raw-yuv
    format=(fourcc)I420.
  - cheese-camera: Enabling source color conversion
    Setting the flag to enable color conversion on video source. Flags names
    were also redefined to allow code readability.
  - cheese-camera: Setting resolution in camerabin
    Cheese was using a capsfilter after video source to configure the
    desired resolution for pictures and video. We now use the camerabin
    signal set-video-resolution-fps to set desired resolution.
  - cheese-camera: Removing height and width defaults
    Camerabin has video-capture defaults that can cause not-negotiated
    errors or set resolution to values that are not the requested by the
    user. Setting them to zero we allow the resolution to be negotiated.
  - cheese-camera: Creating a separate effects_preview_bin
    Create a effects_preview_bin that will hold all elements related to
    effects live preview. This bin is added to video_filter_bin, the same
    bin that contained those elements directly before.
  - cheese-camera: Use camerabin as pipeline base
    Changed Cheese-Camera to use camerabin as its base. Camerabin implements
    view-finder, image capture and video recording.
  - Add gobject introspection support to build system
  - configure.ac: Changing required versions
    Cheese works with older version of clutter, gtk, gdk and
    libgnomedesktop.
  - cheese-window: Fix vala syntax problem
    Cheese wasn't compiled by latest java because of this array
    construction. Changing it to a proper array we avoid the compiling
    problem. Fixes bug #639276.

version 2.91.4
  - bump LT_VERSION numbers for libcheese and libcheese-gtk
  - Splitting dependencies of libcheese and libcheese-gtk
    Spliting dependencies of libcheese and libcheese-gtk and linking
    libcheese library with it's dependencies.
  - libcheese: Removing unnecessary includes
    Removing unnecessary includes of gtk in libcheese modules.
  - Creating pkgconfig file for libcheese and libcheese-gtk
  - Adding test for CheeseCamera
    cheese-test-camera creates a CheeseCamera and takes a photo that will be
    saved in testcamera.jpg after five seconds.
  - Creating libcheese, installable non-gtk lib
    Cheese-flash is now part of libcheese-gtk, since it depends on gtk and
    we want libcheese to not depend on it. Libcheesecommon is now called
    simply Libcheese and it's installed, it's the main cheese lib which can
    be used to set the pipeline, take_photos and record video.
  - remove countdown from libcheese
    cheese uses the new countdown in src/cheese-countdown.vala
    which prints the countdown directly on the clutter texture.
  - cheese-test-chooser: Use gtk_clutter_init
    Cheese test chooser should use gtk_clutter_init instead of gtk_init,
    since cheese-camera now uses a ClutterTexture to display video.
  - cheese-camera: using const char * when appropriate
    Filenames and other string parameters used to set properties can be
    const.
  - cheese-camera: switch_device is now a void method
    Method cheese_camera_switch_device always returned true. Its return
    value can be ignored.
  - cheese-camera: Making methods static
    Some methods are only used inside CheeseCamera, so I removed them from
    header file and declared them as static.
  - cheese-widget: Fix return type for get_settings
  - remove dbus support from cheese, fixes bug #622915
  - cheese-camera: Check return of linking effect
    Return if linking effect preview was not successful.
  - cheese-camera: Removing extra colorspace after effect
    Effects are already created using one colorspace before and one after
    its pipeline description, so there is no need to add another colorspace
    after the effect bin.
  - cheese-camera: Handle more bus messages
    When bus receives error or warning messages, we parse them and print
    warning messages.

version 2.91.3

  - Photo and video resolution can be set separately. Fixes bug #582268
  - Fixed tooltip text for "stop action" and for "next/prev effect page"
    buttons
  - Start monitoring storage folders if they exist when cheese starts,
    and a fix for bug 637798 commit.
  - Burst mode session can be cancelled with a "Stop taking pictures"
    button. Fixes bug #637798
  - Button area does not get hidden after returning from fullscreen mode.
  - Start "Save as" dialog in home folder
  - Check if each Webcam directory exists before filling thumb view
  - Don't create Webcam dirs (in Pictures and Video user dirs) unless
    there is content to put on it, fixes bug #563058
  - Command line options for starting in wide and fullscreen modes,
    fixes bug #597820
  - All ui buttons now have tooltips, fixes bug #622974
  - allow multiple items to be deleted at once
  - allow multiple items moved to trash at once
  - do a fade in animatin on each new effect page
  - calculate the dimension of the effect previews automatically
    this is done by getting the viewport dimension, subtracting
    the borders and then dividing by three. if there are less than
    9 effects on the last effects pane, we want to still start
    putting the previews in the upper left corner. in fullscreen
    we simply use the same size.
  - remove useless comments
  - align the effects in the center, regardless of window size
  - sort the effects in the effect preview alphabetically
  - set the effect panes preview to a fixed size
  - post release version bump

version 2.91.2
  - port cheese to gsettings
    this commit drops gconf entirely from cheese and uses
    gsettings. glib and gio dependency was bumped to 2.26.0
  - Increased upper bound for number of photos taken in burst mode and time
    interval between photos taken in burst mode
  - Removed mx dependency. Bumped minimum clutter version to 1.4.0
  - test-widget: Using gtk_clutter_init
    The test cheese-test-widget was using gtk_init instead of
    gtk_clutter_init, displaying the error "Unable to create a new stage".
  - widget: Using ClutterTexture instead of DrawingArea
    The method cheese_camera_new expects a ClutterTexture, but the widget
    was trying to use a GtkDrawingArea. It now has a GtkClutterEmbed widget
    that contains a ClutterTexture that will be used by cheese_camera_new.
  - camera: emit video-saved signal by name in gst threads
    Static camera_signals array is not initizialized in the gstreamer thread
    so we get a critical assertion failed (signal_id > 0) if we emit by id.
    This should workaround the issue #620637
  - Mapped the Escape key to either stop a current action or to take you out of
    the effects selector or fullscreen
  - main: properly start GtkClutter to avoid a runtime warning
    Initializing GtkClutter instead of gtk and clutter separately
    prevents this:
    ClutterGLX-CRITICAL **: Unable to make the stage window 0x4600035 the current GLX drawable
  - Fixed bug where you can start multiple countdowns in photo mode that
    run together and mess up the counter
  - json: fix a boolean property defined as a string
    Fixes a g_value_copy incompatible types critical warning at runtime
  - configure: Use cheese instead of Cheese
    This way the .ui files are installed in /usr/shared/cheese
    as expected, instead of /usr/shared/Cheese, fixes bug #626697
  - check if vala is available, fail if not, partially fixes #626697
  - bump vala requirement to 0.9.2 and use the new syntax for gtk stock items
    in vala 0.10
  - add identity effect manually at the first position of the effect list
  - remove --verbose command line flag, log handler and bugreport script
    as most of the debug output is done with GST_* or with
    debug() and message(), the log file is useless and therefore
    the bugreport script which is collection that file too.
  - show the version with the -v/--version command line flag
  - check if device uri is null, before setting up the camera with it
  - add a command line option to specify camera file, fixes bug #614778
    the -d or --device option was added to specify a different
    device file. if the device file does not exist, or is not a
    valid v4l/v4l2 device it will be silently ignored
  - bump libcanberra version requirement to 0.23
  - play a sound when taking a photo
    this was somehow not added when we did the vala port, now
    everybody can enjoy that lovely shutter sound
  - parse our custom gtkrc file to hide the thumbview arrows
  - Killed several memory leaks
  - Fixed some runtime warnings
  - Camera related actions are now disabled until the pipeline is playing
  - Show error dialogs when any of the file operations fail
  - Made app crash early if the GTKBUilder UI files are not found
  - get rid of eog thumbnail
    removed eog thumbnail and added cheese thumbnail, which
    uses the best things from nautilus and eog.
  - Display 'No effects found' message if no effects were found.
  - Removed most unneccessary warnings when compiling src/*
    Warnings that remain point to real problems that should be handled
  - Errors in effect files no longer fatal
  - Partially removed warnings that appeared during effect switching
  - use the correct protocol in licence dialog, fixes bug #610207
    as the original text of the link began with <http://...
    this was seen as the protocol, however the protocol is just
    http://
  - Split UI setup into UI Setup and camera setup. Shows Window as soon
    as UI is setup.
    Slightly faster time-to-window-visible
  - ignore effects, if they are already loaded
    if an effect is already loaded, cheese ignores the effect
    and does not add it to the ui. this is done by comparing the
    gstreamer pipeline
  - load effects from ~/.local/share/gnome-video-effects/
    xdg user_data_dir defaults to ~/.local/share/gnome-video-effects,
    so we are looking into that place for user effects
  - Effect preview elements are now constructed on-demand, rather than
    at startup.
  - remove the effect files from cheese from now on and add gnome-video-effects
    as a dependency. effects are brought to the users home by the package
    gnome-video-effects (http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-video-effects).
    this way, many applications, like Pitivi or Empathy are able to use the
    same effects as we do. however, we will not depend on it, as it is an
    optional package and not needed to run.

    cheese looks for a directory named gnome-video-effects in one of the system
    share directories proposed by XDG (mostly /usr/share/ or /usr/local/share/).

    it also looks if the user has a directory named ~/.gnome-video-effects. we
    probably should change that and use the XDG standard for user shared files,
    which is ~/.local/share/
  - Removed a few unnecessary camera start/stops during startup
  - Do not create a device if gst initializazion fails
    Currently we create a device with empty caps if the probing pipeline
    cannot be started. That's wrong, the device evidendtly doesn't work so
    the CheeseCameraDevice object for doesn't have to be created. Fixes bug #618203

version 2.29.91
  * cheese:
    - Restore the infobar temporarily disabled in the previous version
    - Make the infobar display generic errors about camera
      initialization instead of just the "no-device" one.

  * libcheese-gtk:
    - Remove "ready" and "error" signals in CheeseWidget and use a
      "state" property to track current widget state (none, ready,
      error).
    - Add cheese_widget_get_error() api to retrieve a GError (propagated
      from CheeseCamera) if something failed (widget in error state).
    - Update CheeseAvatarChooser to reflect the new api.

  * Export libcheese-gtk library
  * Rework Cheese itself to use libcheese-gtk

  * Fix a possible crasher and a hang in CheeseCamera
  * Require libgudev on Linux systems
  * Limit framerate to 30 frames per second

  * Updated German documentation

version 2.29.5

  A slightly different format for these release notes.
  We missed a couple of releases in the 2.29 cycle and the big changes
  cheese went through meanwhile deserves something better than a cold
  list of commit messages.
  Big thanks go to Bastien Nocera who took up most longstanding items
  in our TODO list and implemented them right away.
  So let's see what happened since 2.28. Note that most of the following
  stuff is still a work in progress so don't expect everything listed to
  be completed.

  * Completely dropped HAL dependency
    Port most HAL code for v4l capability probing into udev and use
    gudev in cheese to take advantage of it.
    Add infrastructure (CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor) for dynamic
    device hotplugging (UI yet to come).
    Add optional udev dependency and provide a simple entry point
    for non linux platforms that will want to use their custom
    detection code (still waiting for patches).

  * First steps in splitting cheese code into two libraries
    - libcheese-common
      Will provide basic non UI related cheese functions: basically,
      device detection, device monitoring, video format handling.
    - libcheese-gtk
      A set of widgets that will allow third party application to
      include parts of cheese functionality (e.g. the avatar chooser
      will soon embed a viewfinder for quickly shooting a nice
      buddy icon). Ideally cheese will be soon based on this set of
      widgets being the first user of our own library.

  * Rework most of device capability handling code
    Rewrite caps detection code trying to use gstreamer api instead of
    our own custom stuff whenever possible.
    Remove framerate retrieving code since we didn't use it since a
    couple of releases.

  * Make startup slightly faster
    Probe device capabilities in PAUSED state instead of PLAYING.
    This was actually a workaround for a now fixed gstreamer bug (See
    #587082).
    Just a two line change but cheese is notably faster now!

  * Cosmetic changes
    Remove all the fake webcam code and use a still error image when
    no webcam is available.
    Drop EphySpinner in favor of the new GtkSpinner. Invert colors to
    make it sexier.
    Remove actions (SendTo stuff) from the contextual menu. It wasn't
    exactly the best way to interoperate with the desktop. And most of
    them worked suboptimally anyway.

  * Move to GST_DEBUG (first steps, probably needs work)
    We use gstreamer anyway, why not to take full advantage of it?
    Gstreamer debug infrastructure is really cool and surely a lot
    better than our previous g_prints.

  * Fixed bugs
    #598902 — Make flash window a popup
    #594966 — Drop HAL
    #603595 — Add a photo-taken signal, which passes a pixbuf
    #522199 — First pass at webcam widget for use in other applications
    #598445 — Use GtkSpinner instead of our own
    #603152 — Use libcanberra instead of GStreamer for shutter
    #603161 — Make CheeseGConf a singleton object
    #603162 — Make CheeseFileUtil a singleton
    #603167 — Avoid warnings on exit when playback hasn't started
    #595005 — Use a custom filename to group burst mode pictures
    #596535 — String fixes

  - fix the abortion of burst mode with the escape key, fixes bug #595073
    burst mode can now be aborted with the Escape key, no matter if
    the countdown is active or not.
    when burst mode is running you could start it again with spacebar,
    this has been disabled during the burst session.

version 2.27.91
  - Restore default window size that was changed with the netbook-mode
    merge.
  - Prevent the thumbview to shrink down to nothing when there are no
    items. Keep track of current items number and set a size request when
    it reaches zero.
  - Remove a bunch of hacks used in wide-mode switching to keep the video
    area size constant. Do everything in a more proper, non hackish, way.
    Fixes window "flickering" when switching to Wide Mode.
  - Restore a <schema> keyword that got lost in the gconf schema, fixes

version 2.27.90
  - Drop HILDON mode. We used to have HILDON support once but it has
    been broken for several major releases now. Better no support than
    a partial and broken one.

  - Merge netbook-mode branch. Introduces a new horizontal mode that
    fits nicely in small screens where the vertical real estate is
    limited (like netbooks). Commits summary follows.
  - Enable wide mode at startup if enabled in gconf or if forced
    through -w/--wide command line option. Save wide mode
    state in a gconf key.
  - Prevent icon view to shrink down when empty.
  - Let the thumbview pick up its optimal size. Remove hard coded size
    constraints for the icon view so that it picks up the best size
    for the current children (i.e. centered items, even with no
    selection, with every thumbnail size). Remove also extra
    spacing between and around thumbnails.
  - Correctly update thumbnav button sensitiveness. Force an update on
    up and down button sensitiveness while switching mode.
  - Keep size of the video preview area while switching mode. This way
    the icon view moves from the bottom to the right side while the
    rest of the window remains still.
  - Add UI for dynamically switching to and from wide mode.
    Add a WideMode action that triggers widget reparenting and changes
    spacing the vertical mode.
  - Add a function that sets the ThumbNav in vertical mode reparenting
    widgets on the fly.
  - Add a vertical mode for the ThumbNav. Add up and down buttons and
    implement vertical scrolling logic.
  - Reparent the icon view into the right aligment. First experiment
    of an horizontal mode suited for netbooks.
  - Make room for a vertical icon view in the right side. Add an hbox
    and an alignment to contain the icon view in the yet to come
    netbook mode.

  - Set WARNING MessageType for the InfoBar.
    Warning is certainly more suited since the missing webcam is not a fatal
    error. Also, the red color for the error type is really ugly. This
    lovely orange is much better.
  - Remove *.glade files.
    It is not recommended to use gtk-builder-convert anymore but to use
    glade-3 directly on the .ui files
  - Insensitize buttons and actions while "bursting".
  - Take the first photo of a burst right after button press. Rework a
    little bit burst mode to allow this.
  - Add 256x256 Cheese icons, courtesy of Ulisse Perusin.
  - Add tooltips to the buttons. Now that toolbar buttons have no
    labels tooltips can be helpful to identify each button role.
  - Add burst mode settings to preferences dialog. Allow to configure
    amount of photos to take in a burst and delay between each one.
  - Remove icon-size attribute of button icons. All icons have now the
    same size and honour gtk theme settings.
  - Add the scalable version of the take photo and burst icons.
  - Add --version command line flag.

  - post release version bump

  - remove the label of the photo and video modes
  - support taking a series of photos, fixes bug #581997
    this introduces the burst mode in cheese.
    the burst mode allows to take a series of photos
    with a configurable delay and number of photos
  - Make webcam and resolution settings not sensitive if just 1 option
    is available. If there are no options to choose, make the webcam and
    resolution combo box insensitive, fixes bug #588353

version 2.27.4
  - bump gtk+ requirement to 2.17.3
  - ensure the drawing area has a native X11 window
    With the new client-side-window gtk+ widgets do not always have a
    native window anymore. We need an XID to give to GstXOverlay and embed
    video into the application. This temporarily works around the issue
    forcing a native window. Works around bug 588357
  - use the camera-web icon instead of camera-video
    we are using camera-web in the project logo/icon but camera-video for the
    UI. it is more appropriate to use the camera-web icon as it's a) less
    likely people will use camcorders with cheese b) there is bigger visual
    distinction between camera-photo and camera-web than camera-photo and
    camera-video.
  - manually expose the window if not PLAYING
    Draw a black background if the pipeline is starting up and the overlay
    is still not ready to expose the drawing area.
  - fix broken xoverlay management
    For some reason this went unnoticed for a long time. We were calling
    set_x_overlay right after setting PLAYING state (with no warranty that
    the state change succeeded nor that an overlay was really there). The
    only right way to do this is to wait for prepare-xwindow-id message. It
    worked until now just because we've been extremely lucky.
  - drop url and email handlers
    Drop url and email handlers used in the about dialog since gtk+ 2.17.2
    already provides that functionality built in.
  - drop GEditMessageArea in favor of GtkInfoBar
    Drop GEditMessageArea since it recently entered gtk+. Fixes bug #586545
  - use AM_SILENT_RULES if available, fixes bug #587581
  - Use accessor functions instead direct access, fixes bug #585210
  - remove markup from translatable strings
  - keybindings: add configure checks for needed X11 stuff
    Check for XF86keysym.h availability and add a configure option to
    disable Webcam Button listening. Copied from rhythmbox.
  - add little program to emit fake webcam button events
  - capture webcam buttons
    Listen to XF86Webcam keypresses to capture webcam buttons. Should
    work with every driver that correctly binds the input device to
    KEY_CAMERA events. Fixes bug #521551
  - remove padding from the take_picture button
    Use alignment xscale property instead of padding in the take_picture
    button. Doesn't fix but at least partly works around bug #573301 (the
    button can now grow up and fill the whole free space with no padding
    constraint).
  - sanitize main toolbar structure
    No real change, just some little restructuring of the glade toolbar
    definition to make it easier to hack on.

version 2.27.3
  - Set default resolution to the highest one with a non jerky (higher than
    15fps) framerate, fixes bug #585857
  - 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 #585761
  - 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 bug #559188 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.
