This release supports video playback through DirectShow, to the extent determined by the installed filters.
It is also the first release built in the AppVeyor cloud, ensuring a clean and reproducible build environment.
Fixed bugs:
- The search bar did not provide OpenSearch suggestions from Google/YouTube due to outdated endpoint URLs.
- OpenSearch endpoint URLs were insecure.
Other changes:
- Includes a desktop version to help create and maintain compatible web designs.
- Removes an annoying dependency on QtScript.
Steps to deploy Endorphin Browser to a SIMATIC Comfort V2 or Mobile panel:
- Download and unpack the .7z archive to a folder on your engineering PC.
- Run the included piimake.bat as administrator.
- Click the button labelled Create ProSave Addon.
- Start ProSave.
- Select device type, then switch to Options page.
- Find Endorphin Browser listed among available options.
- Remaining steps are as usual.
At your option, edit the registry to help Endorphin remember visited pages and accepted certificates across device reboot:
- If in doubt how to edit the registry on your device, refer to regedt33.
- Navigate to registry key HKLM\System\Explorer\Shell Folders.
- Look for an entry with name Application Data, and change its value to point to a folder either on the built-in flash device (e.g. \flash\Application Data) or on a removable storage medium (e.g. \Storage Card SD\Application Data), the latter being the preferred choice if risk of wearing the built-in flash memory is of concern to you.
