05 May 2012 – Publication of the first beta version of ffDiaporama 1.3

 
ffDiaporama 1.3 introduces numerous novelties:
Transformation of texts in rich text (Warning: The modification of the rendering system can provoke an estimate of the texts of the projects saved with previous versions.)
Addition of animations for texts (Zoom and scrolling) in mode for this shot
Addition of animations for blocks in mode during this shot
Addition of UNDO feature to some dialogs (Slide, Text, Image, Cut video and Background)
Modification of the slide dialog:
  • To allow multiple block selection (blocks table, interactive zone and some functions)
  • To add locking of properties
Addition of a button to capture current image for the preview video player and in cut video dialog
 
Other important point:
Switch from LIBAV/ffmpeg to LIBAV/avconv (ffmpeg is always supported if avconv is not available on the computer !)
End of support of LIBAV 0.6 (This end of support make application becomes incompatible with old Linux distributions  such as Ubuntu 11.04, Fedora 15 etc …)
 
Small demonstration of new features:
 
Installation packages are available on download page
