Ubooquity 1.3.2 is available
15 march 2014 Release
No new big shiny feature in this release, but a lot of work under the hood to improve file scanning (making it more tolerant to unusual files) and general application quality.
Here is what has changed:
- A "debug" mode can be activated in the options, adding a button to force cover thumbnail regeneration for a specific book or comic book (more details in the Documentation)
- New actions available in the options: "clear comics database" and "clear books database" in case you want to rescan your entire collection
- Epublib (the library previously used to read books metadata) has been replaced by in-house code, allowing a lot more books to be recognized by Ubooquity
- Empty directories and files without cover are now displayed and accessible (basically, Ubooquity will display a file even when the parsing of metadata fails)
- When comics image extraction fails, Ubooquity will now try to guess the real format of the file (it appears a lot of users have files with a wrong extension)
- Small aesthetic improvement of raw files display
- [Bug fix] On some versions of Linux, when using Ubooquity in command line mode, the CPU load was continuously very high.
- [Bug fix] Some Jpeg images appeared with a pink hue
Update (march 16th): Just released version 1.3.2.1 to fix a bug affecting default cover for comics.
