Test build of dooble with qt5

[Paul Smedley]

Testing Dooble with https://meet.google.com I wonder why the Windows version access to meet without problem, while the OS/2 version asks me to download Chrome, Firefox or Edge.
I was expecting the OS/2 version to show me some errors at least.

I'm assuming it's user-agent related...

The dooble source code was updated over the weekend, so I rebuilt the OS/2 binaries today. This has NO OS/2 specific fixes included.

Tnx, it works ok. But not all sites are shown properly.

It seems that WebKit may also need to be updated.

Paul-
This version works very similar to the previous ones. For me the main problem is that the browser does not last 1 hour, if I am with a background music video. I am using the last UNIAAUD32 6.0 version.
Martin -
The other day I got chance with Dooble and with SimpleBrowser a score of 522, with both open at the same time.
Simple Browser:

Dooble:

Today with the last version of Paul, I also got out of a test with 522, but it is not easy to repeat it.

os4user-
The link https://www.speedtest.net/ work ok too.
But the first time I execute it with the last version of Paul, I close the browser with many open windows. Then with few windows it worked well.

If you look at the ECMAScript support, we're falling behind.

And then there are the crappy sites that just go by user agent and may not even test on things like Firefox.

If you have a website that does not work or is not displayed correctly, send me an email.
roderickklein@xs4all.nl_nospam (remove the _nospam of course).  Only report this with the Dooble browser. Not the Otter browser.

Thanks,

Roderick

No great surprise, but that page loads fine on Dooble on my Ubuntu laptop - so it's fixed in latest webkit. I've looked into building Qt5 but the current build instructions don't work. One priority for if/when bww resume work on Qt5 is to get it working for others, so that in the event of issues preventing bww working on it, then others can try and step in and provide updates.

[Dave Yeo]

Is the latest webkit Qt5 or Qt6? Dooble's Help-->About... should say.
As for building, I get quite a ways but always the system locks up. It's tricky, having to change from debug to rel and back to debug and back to rel  or such IIRC.

Dooble is using Qt 6.2.4 on Ubuntu 22.10 beta..

Hi.

Today I was trying Dooble (2022.10.15.X) (the one that is on the RPM) and tested a webconference video chatting too call Jitsi.im. (Its open source and free hosted - no registration required).

I created my own chat meeting "https://meet.jit.si/WarpTest". I conected one Windows machine and my Thinkpad L420 with ArcaOS 5.0.6.

There was no video or audio from the ArcaOS side as expected. From the ArcaOS machine I was able to see the video and hear the audio from the Windows machine.
The chat was also working. There where some defects on the ArcaOS side, some icons does not display correctly. Some of the functions like raising your hand works from ArcaOS.
The whiteboard also works from Dooble (ArcaOS) if you can find the "More actions" icon    but I have no idea how to get out the whiteboard, since some icons are missing.

Check it out and let me know what do you think.

A quick question.  Does this browser support add-ons like NoScript and adblock plus?  If not why not?

I do not think its suports these type add-ons the Dooble rbowser. I think some functionality is present to block cookies and scripts. But I am not certain.
The  Otter Browser might be revisited when the Dooble browser is more stable.  That is the primary goal right now.
