Small detail but really nice to see: #Firefox on #linux finally (re-)landed rounded bottom corners, shipping in 153

First try to create #libcamera swISP tuning files for the OnePlus6 with #ideasonboard folks at #embeddedworld. Unfortunately we hit an issue that we couldn't fix on-side - got a few todos to make sure things work out next time!

#postmarketos #linuxmobile

A bit late to post here, however: today is the last day at #embeddedworld. If you like to come around for a chat, you can find me and other Collaboreans at our booth (4-404) :)

Just played around with audiobooks on my #oneplus6 with #postmarketos. There doesn't seem to be a nice Audible client atm., even though it might be possible to make one. Then I learned about https://librivox.org/ which has several thousands Public Domain audiobooks - awesome!

So first I tried Cozy - pretty nice app but it requires downloading things first. Then I figured that the page also has RSS feeds - just like most podcasts. So I tried the Podcasts app:

#linuxmobile #gnome

#postmarketos just landed an update for the #pixel3a enabling the rear camera \o/

That, AFAIK, makes it the first #exandroid (close to mainline kernel) device were both cameras work OOTB.

To set expectations right here: there's still a lot of work in various components in the stack before the camera experience comes even close to what you get on the same devices running Android (kernels).

Short comparison with my Pixel 6a running #lineageos - the rear cameras on both devices use the IMX363:

I'm very happy about #gnomeshell / #gnome47 shipping HW encoding for its internal screen recorder. With the upcoming #gstreamer 1.24.6 release all currently known bugs are fixed, even though I kinda expect more to come on some multi-GPU setups.
It's about time that we use hw-enc in more places by default and the screen recorder is IMO in a pretty good spot to role things out: on one hand it's used by many people, ensuring we get bug reports, while OTOH its functionality is not crucial.

#gnome

I'm quite happy how upcoming performance improvements for #gnome Snapshot and #libcamera are shaping up. This is how things are now running for me on a #librem5:

#gstreamer #gtk #postmarketos #linuxmobile #mobilelinux

#firefox #webrtc using #pipewire and #libcamera (with softwareISP) on a #thinkpadx13s - it finally works \o/

The required patches will also make things work for a bunch of #linuxmobile devices.
