Calendar Grey June 4, 2022
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Upgrade Fedora 36 by integrating the latest webkit2gtk3 enhancements to boost video playback quality, rectifying security vulnerabilities for an overall performance increase.
Update to 2.36.3: * Support capturing already encoded video streams, which takes advantage of encoding done in hardware by devices which support this feature

Summary

WebKitGTK is the port of the portable web rendering engine WebKit to the

GTK platform.

This package contains WebKit2 based WebKitGTK for GTK 3.

Update to 2.36.3: * Support capturing already encoded video streams, which

takes advantage of encoding done in hardware by devices which support this

feature. * Avoid using experimental GStreamer elements for video demuxing. *

Avoid using the legacy GStreamer VA-API decoding plug-ins, which often cause

rendering issues and are not much maintained. Their usage can be re-enabled

setting WEBKIT_GST_ENABLE_LEGACY_VAAPI=1 in the environment. * Fix playback of

YouTube streams which use dynamic ad insertion. * Fix display capture with

Pipewire. * Fix several crashes and rendering issues.

* Thu Jun 2 2022 Michael Catanzaro 2.36.3-1

- Update to 3.36.3

* Wed May 18 2022 Michael Catanzaro 2.36.2-1
