Title: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Dave Yeo on February 20, 2023, 02:17:05 am
Hi here's the latest release of Dooble compiled for Qt5. See the release notes under Help for what's new.

Is see only one single file in the zip - Dooble.exe. Do you mean starting this dooble.exe (not tried until yet) and look at the Help menu?

Hi

I renamed the old dooble.exe from c:\usr\bin and included this one. For the moment seems to work fine.

Thanks Dave

Regards

Maybe it's just me, but I could not download with Firefox 45. I could and did download using an older dooble build. The new build runs fine, but lacks a program icon on my system. That maybe the fault of Dynamic Icons. I like the improved history and bookmarks.

You are right Neil, that service (https://c.gmx.com/) does not work with Firefox 45. I had downloaded it with Dooble.

It is not executing for me. Kind of hard to read the help file when it is in the app that will not run.

Did you have the RPM version of Dooble installed? If not, you should install
It is not a help file, just what has changed.

Dave Yes I did have the RPM version installed.

Follow Tellies advice and look in popuplog.os2, it should have the same requirements unless I picked something in netlabs-exp, in which case there should be an entry in popuplog.os2

Meanwhile here's the icon that Paul has been distributing.
Edit: now the icon should be attached

Hello,

seems to work pretty good. Youtube plays smoothly for me, including sound. Sometimes websites stay white (going through google works then) and sometimes the programm doesn't close properly and i have to kill dooble.exe.

I notice "Open File" does not work, i tried with jpg and png files. Also in Textfields (like this one) the Del does not work. I can only delete using backspace. In the URL field Del works.

Thanls for the work done!

Yea, most of these problems are actually Qt5 or the Qt5webengine problems. Good to keep the official Bitwise RPM version around for comparison, at some point will have to open issues at Bitwise, it is still more Alpha quality. I see most of the same issues with the official Dooble-OS2 release.
As for work, Paul got the OS/2 patches accepted upstream, some of us and others have opened issues that the developer implemented, such as the tab fixes I asked for. So basically I'm just building the latest.
Edit: Fix typo

have to say a much better-stable version than my previous installed.
Opens/supports a good choice of sites as linkedin, youtube, gmail, my company organization email, OS2 World Forum ad others.
2-3 browsing windows opened same time smoothly running, and when it reaches the maximum work limit (4-5 browsing windows same time) program just quit, no system traps as it did before.
Also when exit/close the program no system traps as it did before.
Good job, right direction.

Hi

As far I can test, this version is for Qt5. I'm NOT putting Qt6 on my path, and this version of Dooble is running fine here with Qt5.

I  installed it.
- Missing icon
- After system reboot, I always have to kill Dooble to close it (hung at close time) after using it
- Clock checkbox for 24h not visible if checked or not

- Clock checkbox for 24h not visible if checked or not
 

I posted the icon upthread.
Closing seems to work better when using File-->Exit Dooble, though not always.
Never noticed with the clock, I note that the RPM version has the same problem, likely a Qt problem.

Good job, right direction.

this above was a successful test on a virtual machine (Virtualbox guest Warp 4.52) where I separately installed all QT5 environment and latest Python needed, with a standalone Dooble version learned on this forum in 2022 (not rpm). Swapped that executable version with this latest one , now well working as said.
Tried on another virtual machine with no previous QT5 environment installation wich now came by installing Dooble rpm package, and then swapped its executable with this latest, it normally opens/navigate any site after first run, but next time it does not resolve IP addresses anymore, like something prevents the translation. Do not understand which could be the cause.

hi Mauro

Just in case I checked it out with the Windows version of Dooble, and it works, (check image) will this be an issue with the OS/2 port?

Weirdly, I get a blank page at repubblica, trying the Qt6 version, I get the same issue with some characters not displaying. Unluckily Dooble doesn't have much in the way of troubleshooting stuff.
Simplebrowser has the same issue

I see.
Does it lead to a fix ?  Otherwise for me it is accettable also like this, as issue rarely occours in some pages header/title, not missing much.
Thanks

Nothing simple that I see as it is a subtle bug, works in the svgviewer but not in Dooble or the Simplebrowser so guessing it is a Qtwebengine issue. In the fullness of time, an issue should be raised at Bitwise but as it is minor, no rush and maybe other fixes will fix it.

Hello Dave!

The DELete key doesn't work in text forms like the one here for typing a reply. Windows version from December and with QT6 doesn't suffer from this problem.

Greetings,

Hi Sandra, known issue and exists in the simplebrowser as well, so a webengine issue. IIRC, there's other keys that don't work.
Simple browser is at @unixroot\usr\lib\qt5\examples\webenginewidgets\simplebrowser\simplebrowser.exe, good for double checking if an issue is a Dooble issue or the webengine. There's other examples that are handy, tried the textfinder and delete key does work there.

I downloaded Dooble from ECSoft dooble_2023_02_25 and installed the prerequsites with RPM. It's looking for qt5webw, where can I find it at?
Title: Re: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Dave Yeo on March 01, 2023, 09:22:14 pm
Hi,
Code: [Select]
yum provides qt5webw.dll
qt5-qtwebengine-5.15.2-1.oc00.pentium4

Easiest is to just install the RPM version of Dooble, rename it to something like dooble_rpm.exe in case you want to compare and copy mine to @unixroot\usr\bin.
Note that you need to be using pentium4 as your platform, so might need to change that,easiest in ANPM under Manage-->Platform...

The RPM for Dooble is only available for pentium4, so not for i686.
Try using the Arca Noae Package Manager (use Manage --> Platforms to add pentium4, and make sure it is listed at the top).
After that you should find the dooble package under Available in the left window of ANPM.

That did the trick. Dooble work for me now but I am getting a bunch of certificate errors when browsing to sites. Dooble 1.53 is also doing the same thing.

Have you installed and updated the ca-certificates package?
There is a setting towards the bottom of Web to ignore ssl errors, though it is safer if you don't need it.
Might also be worth trying to delete %HOME%\.pki and let it rebuild. First run of Dooble will complain.

Seems to load here, lots of books, a load more button, a contact form wit a submit button and a map showing it at 12330 1/2 lake City Way.
Try removing your profile, %HOME%\.dooble.
I see it hang a lot here when exiting and then when restarting, things break. Why it hangs when exiting, I don't know.

Deleting %HOME%/.double allows me to see the page. If I exit, dooble hangs, but responds to window list->close. If I start double again, the page still renders fine.

Oddly, Windows 11/Edge does not properly render the page, but only gets the last entry field and button.

I've also uploaded all the dictionaries, probably overkill. https://c.gmx.com/@744346040190108571/VIwdo3n4RpCjtRqwQ-FebQ (https://c.gmx.com/@744346040190108571/VIwdo3n4RpCjtRqwQ-FebQ)
For Dooble to find the dictionaries, the ones you want to use need to be installed in the directory qtwebengine_dictionaries which must be a subdirectory of the directory where you have dooble.exe installed, here @unixroot/usr/bin/qtwebengine_dictionaries. Just unpack the languages directly into this directory, not subfolders.
These are good for Paul's Qt6 builds of dooble, same rules. Same with the blocklists, work the same whether Qt5 or Qt6 build.
PS, don't forget to enable spell checking languages in the settings.

Perhaps a bug when trying to download to a directory, likely in Qt. Try letting it download to the default, %HOME%\desktop.
Hm, testing, Qt6 version of Dooble just stalled after trying about 4 times, each said stalled. Qt5 version of Dooble worked fine with the default, here W:/Home/Desktop. Possible needs to use / for a directory separator and it might even be case sensitive.
If you keep having problems, I can put a copy on Google Drive.
Edit: Looking at your screenshot, the PATH seems fine. You could temporally try a different profile.

Could be, have to be both the version that Qt5 uses as well as Qt6.
Playing with wal (write ahead logging, https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html (https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html), while things work, I get no wal files, do get shm files.
Code: [Select]

shm never worked for Mozilla as we were lacking the mmap support. We also had to get Ihle to add the wal support to sqlite for OS/2 when Mozilla started using it. That was before sqlite removed OS/2 support.
Thing is really how we're maintaining our fork by maintaining the old code isn't ideal. What should have been done was someone writing a  vfs for us. https://www.sqlite.org/vfs.html (https://www.sqlite.org/vfs.html)
As our wal support was added at a time when mmap shared memory wasn't available, perhaps it has introduced a bug now that the build process finds it.
I will note that sqlite seems fine here with wal turned on.
sh script to enable wal when run in .dooble,
Code: [Select]
ls *.db | while read filename;
  do sqlite3 $filename 'PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL;';
done;
change the WAL to delete in the PRAGMA line to turn it off.

Hi Holger, not much changed but code does keep getting added to Dooble. I think these SIGTRAP's are caused by lack of resources. If you haven't marked the QT5 dll's to load high, you could try that. "highmem -c qt5*.dll" ran in @unixroot\usr\lib. Otherwise not sure.

It is strange. Something to do with the sqlite3 database's I guess. You could try vacuuming them, under Edit, though probably won't help.
It's surprising the differences between builds. My environment hasn't changed so I guess just the Dooble code changes are triggering the results. Here, the latest is closing like it should, unlike the last few versions, and the first tab doesn't load, have to open a 2nd one to load a page.

Hi Dave

What I see as common to all builds of Doodle to date:-

Takes around a minute to load and become useable

First tab never loads anything but about:blank which I have set as homepage

Browser use lasts between 3 minutes and around an hour depending on use. Playing videos generally gives short use. When browser crashes it often takes the system down as well requiring a press of the system box Power Off button.

As svg support is missing bits of websites can be invisible eg ebay has a sort order and list or gallery view options that are not visible using Dooble.

Your builds: Only difference that I have noticed is that it is necessary to press Enter after selecting a url from the url history dropdown list in order to load that page - other browsers and earlier builds of Dooble simply load the selected url without the need to press Enter.

Is the above behaviour common?

You can also add for example

&_sop=10

after the URL in order to switch the sort order to 'newly listed'. And there are other sort options that can be added after the URL, like &_sop=1 for 'ending soonest' etc.

Not actually sure why svg support is missing - pretty sure qt5 includes qt5svg.dll - unless the webengine doesn't use the qt provided version of svg?

I'll have to test with a Qt6 webengine.

It's not totally missing, just some SVG's aren't rendered. https://www.repubblica.it/ (https://www.repubblica.it/) is a good testcase, at the top of the page is "la Repubblica"  rendered by svg. Dooble renders "l   e   li". I captured the svg code in SeaMonkey and fed it to the svgviewer example, which displayed it fine. This is the same for the Qt5 and Qt6 based Dooble. At that many of the issues I see are the same for Qt5 and Qt6. Be nice if Dimitriy's life settles down to the point where he can work on these bugs, many which are likely in Chromium.
I attach the svg testcase.

Hi Pete,
Hi Dave

What I see as common to all builds of Doodle to date:-

Takes around a minute to load and become useable

I don't see this, it becomes usable pretty quick here if the tabs aren't being restored, if they are, once loaded it is usable.

Quote
First tab never loads anything but about:blank which I have set as homepage

Seems it used to work here, but yes, the first tab looks like it is loading the page but doesn't render it. Open a new tab and it works fine. Later the 1st tab does load pages, at least some times.
I see the same on the Qt6 builds

Quote
Browser use lasts between 3 minutes and around an hour depending on use. Playing videos generally gives short use. When browser crashes it often takes the system down as well requiring a press of the system box Power Off button.

I get longer use, have left it open all day. But I'm still mostly using SeaMonkey and only lightly using Dooble and eventually the system will lock up. I avoid videos as often they don't play. The Qt6 versions seem more crashy, especially when it comes to video.
I think the biggest problem is memory, all browsers are dropping 32 bit support due to being too crashy. The web. as rendered by modern browsers, has become very memory intensive.

I don't seem to have to press enter to load a page, in the current tab, when accessing history in the History menu.

The other behaviour I see is sometimes clicking the exit button on the frame rather doesn't work or leaves a zombie process that can easily be killed. Latest build is better but still sometimes leaves the zombie. True for both Qt5 and Qt6 builds. At that the builds seem to share most bugs, excepting Qt6 likes to crash on AV1 videos and seems to use more resources and dies sooner.

Hi Dave

Not the History menu, the dropdown list on the url entryfield ie click down arrow at end of url entryfield and select from that list.

Hmmm... wonder why it takes so long to become usable here... It has been like this since the first release.

What I see once Dooble is onscreen is the browser trying to load the homepage  which is what takes most of the "startup time". The browser is not usable until the url entryfield shows the homepage about:blank. I can open a new tab using the + during this time which ends up waiting for the about:blank homepage or try loading something from Favourites or History in a new tab which results in the url showing in the url entryfield and the browser pretending it has loaded the selected page.

If I do not wait for the first tab at startup to actually load the about:blank homepage Dooble simply does not display any webpage until restarted and about:blank has finally loaded.

All libs involved are up to date - unless Dooble needs something later from netlabs-exp?


I think we all wish Dimitriy the best and hope that he will be able to look into the various bugs with qt5/Chromium in the (near-ish) future.

Pete

I just went to Settings-->Display and pressed the X (looks like its in a stop sign) at the end of the Home line which erased about:blank and then pressed the Apply button. Opening more tabs do show about:blank but the first one just has "Enter Address" in the URL bar
Title: Re: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Pete on April 19, 2023, 07:36:43 pm
Hi Dave

Yes, that gets rid of about:blank as the homepage.

Trouble is it "moves " slow loading to the next tab opened which then fails to display the webpage - in this case https://www.os2world.com/cms/ - although Dooble behaves as though the page has loaded.

Opening a third tab and entering a url works.

Think I'll revert to about:blank as homepage and cut out the middle stage above.

Title: Re: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Pete on April 20, 2023, 02:43:56 am
Hi Dave

Had not investigated Profiles but on looking it seems that deleting the .dooble directory is the way to create a new profile when dooble is next started.

Well, that worked, Dooble starts much more quickly and is ready for use immediately - as long as I open a 2nd tab to enter a url into. If I try to use the 1st tab nothing loads.

So loading problem solved - wonder what was in the profile causing the problem.

I then discovered most of the text is missing from webpages and had to rack my brain to remember that it was necessary to select a different Sans Serif font to that pre-selected. I opted for Droid Sans, reloaded os2world.com and all the missing text appeared. Just documenting that here for when I cannot remember the font trick again  :-)

Seems the sqlite3 files can get corrupted too easily when a crash happens, I've had to start over a few times with a new profile, and also keep the Qt6 profile separate from the Qt5 one.
Interesting about the font. I have a lot installed here and it generally defaults to various Bitstream Vera ones.
Title: Re: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Pete on April 20, 2023, 02:28:07 pm
Hi Dave

I have not added to whatever fonts got installed by 5.0.5 - no Bitstream fonts installed. Dooble had defaulted to mainly Helvetica. Guess I should have a look at extra fonts.

Dooble rarely gets closed - it usually crashes taking down the system - I should probably use a cmd file to start Dooble with the first line deleting the .dooble directory to avoid possible profile problems.

OK, looking at Dooble on the last beta, the fonts it uses are, Arial, Courier New and Times New Roman. Doesn't look quite as nice as on my usual install but works satisfactory.
Problem with deleting the profile regularly is you lose too much, history, some logins, the block list and anything you've personalized.
You could set up things how you like, install the block list etc, and the block list helps a lot with stability by stopping a lot of ads and their JavaScript, back up the profile and restore regularly.

On my second machine everything worked right out of the box.

Hi Dave
Your new version was very pleasantly surprised. It is for now the best I've tried.
But within a few minutes it is blocked, and the first page is loaded to the fourth tab I open.
When the Shared High Memory will be done at 650 to 700Mb the game is over.
I have the last version of Paul of the FFMPEG installed, and it works very well,
 I can watch full screen videos with your Dooble QT5.

I attach a patch that I have been using to unlock the memory, which I find interesting.
It helps to extend the time of use. In the YOUTUBE ads it fails, so it is better not to click on the red icon,

My patch also fails when after opening the YouTube, you open www.ebay.com, a sound error is created,
 which is repeated, you have to pause the video, wait for the noise to stop and give the play again.
But despite these failures, the DLLs that I comment on the patch should be checked.

I have to use the QT6 build of Dooble sometimes as the QT5 build is getting ancient, Chrome 83 while the newest is Chrome 114. With sites mostly caring about the most recent version and version-1, more and more sites will break. The Qt6 build that I'm using isn't much newer either but does seem to work on the odd site where the Qt5 one doesn't. Seems the Qt6 version I have is Chrome 90, still old but Paul's newer builds are really unstable or I lost track which were stable.
Most of your sites worked with the Qt6 build, unlike the Qt5 build at least until sigtrapping (memory?) though I never logged in and some like the super market flyer were still somewhat broken.
All versions have a bug too when it comes to displaying SVG images.
The problems, besides straight bugs like the SVG one, is that Dmik seems to busy, doesn't like to update and the newer the chrome version, the more memory hungry it is in this 64 bit world, which is screwing up with Paul's progress.

Hi Neil,

this is what I get when opening, for example, nextdoor.com. At least no blank page, same with paypal or ebay. I played around with ebay a little bit, I am able  to start a search, but then things slow down
Over all, David's last version of the qt5 dooble is a great improvement for me and my needs. I must admit that I mainly stick to only 3 or 4 sites which I visit daily, but these work well.

Regarding Nextdoor.com, Displaying the login page is trivial. Actually logging in is needed to derive any of the gain of using their website.

eBay and PayPal can actually log in and do some things, but not the things I'd normally do on those web sites.

This is not meant as criticism of the dooble porters/developers. I'm documenting what is broken at this time. I'm hopeful that development will continue and improvements will be made.
Title: Re: Dooble releases, Qt5 builds
Post by: Dave Yeo on May 09, 2023, 06:08:44 am
The problems are, most of the webengine is in Qt, and that's where it needs to be fixed, Dooble is sorta like a skin over Chromium/Qt. Dmitriy is the only active developer with the needed skills and he isn't too active lately. There's other weird problems, perhaps with the compilers optimizations, Dooble and especially optimize things to the max, which seem to introduce subtle bugs. Consider Mozilla, the minimally optimized i686 builds are way more stable then the more optimized builds.
All the versions of Dooble I've built have been on top of the same Qt5 and yet they've surprisingly varied in stability considering most of the code hasn't changed.
There also seems to be problems with the profile getting some type of corruption with time and crashes, which means having to test with new profiles regularly, a hassle. I've been using wal on the sqlite3 files, which seems to help as it makes it more likely that corruption caused by crashes can be rolled back. Here's the sh script to turn it on, run in the profile
Code: [Select]
ls *.db | while read filename;
  do sqlite3 $filename 'PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL;';
done;
Change WAL to delete and rerun to turn it off.

Hi Neil, did not think you were criticizing, sorry if my reply sounded like that! I just wanted to stress the fact that everyone of us is having different experiences with dooble for many various reasons. I just feel lucky and happy to be able to do the few things I like to do when using a browser, but it looks like I am having luck and I do not know why some things work here at least to some extent.

Hi here's the latest release of Dooble compiled for Qt5. See the release notes under Help for what's new.
https://c.gmx.com/@744346040190108571/HQZnnDywT-ejiK1nqp1OYw (https://c.gmx.com/@744346040190108571/HQZnnDywT-ejiK1nqp1OYw)

testing (QT5 environment on OS2 Warp 4.52 in Virtualbox guest, with 4Gb RAM), it opens the pages efficiently as before and I can run at least 3 pages same time on different "resource demanding" sites as Linkedin, Youtube, Gmail, Newsmedia. It also keeps same unstability issues which happen randomly, or at least I cannot tell when/why : cpu usage on Dooble instance goes at 100% (seen with Top), site pages not responding and almost everything slowdown in the system, but I can still operate Top to kill the process.  Guess memory usage matter

Hi Dave,

Here's the latest release. This time I built an RPM and this is the resulting zip. Perhaps I should revert to how I was doing it previously? The RPM itself has a link on the other thread.

My browser Seamonkey does not open this link. Is it possible to place the archive somewhere else or give recommendations for downloading?
I can also offer my server to host the archive, if that's interesting.

And yes, it would be good to have somewhere better to host the files.

Hi Dave, thamk you for the new release.

Installed today on one of my machines (x201s) and found a strange issue.
I had your previous release installed before but never noticed this: When setting a Homepage in settings-display-home the homepage does not load after dooble has started. It seems to load, but then I get the message *the page could not be loaded* (previously I had a blank page set as homepage). I switched back to you last release, deleting all dooble directories before starting dooble, same result. If I click on the homepage icon after the error message the page is loaded at once.
On my second machine (x61) I have your previos release installed, same homepage set, works very well, loads the page without any problem.
I played around with dooble on the x201s, trying different pages as hompage.  It seems that when changing the hompage, closing and restarting dooble, the hompage is loaded once. Afterwards, after closing and restarting I again see the error message as mentioned with 1 exeption
The page I usually define as homepage is
https://lite.qwant.com/
The only page that works on the x201s installation  is
https://www.spiegel.de/

Any idea what could be the cause for this?

Thank you once again for your work!

Holger

Hi Holger, it seems to be a common problem where the first tab does not load whatever you try to load. Create a new tab and use that and it is fine. No idea what the problem is except it seems to happen to most of us.
Work around, start Dooble with your homepage as a parameter,
Code: [Select]
dooble https://lite.qwant.com/
works fine here, simplest is to add it to the program object.

Hi Dave,

I had tried this before, but it only works one time when closing and rebooting dooble, the next time I start dooble I have the same problem as before.
I now installed the new release of arcaos on the x201s. I have a lot of problems with this relase, but dooble works fine. I can set the homepage in dooble, it loads every time i start dooble, it even shuts down every time with no problems.

Hi Holger, on the new install, did you also have a new Home directory? If so, you've done the equivalent of creating a new profile.
Get a crash/freeze at the wrong time and the profile could get corrupted.
BTW, I added lite.qwant.com to my Dooble program object. When starting, it takes a surprising amount of time to load, but does load. Nice search engine

Hi Dave,
on the new install I first had to install qt5 using anpm, then I installed the dooble version from anpm too but did not start it. Instead I replaced it with your most recent version, so yes, this was a completely new profile.
By the way, yes qwant light loads slowly in dooble, loads a lot faster in firefox, but I like this search engine. I even defined it as the seacrh engine to use in the search bar of dooble.

Another Dooble release, this is the 2023.07.15 release though I had to patch it as our local sockets do not support permissions, and as the tag was already used, I tagged as 2023.07.16.
Biggest change is the --attach parameter, along with the --listen parameter.
Code: [Select]
dooble --listen
dooble --attach https://arcanoae.com https://nasa.gov
Will open dooble first and then open the URL's in the same instance. Don't mind the 2nd splash screen, dooble needs to do some house cleaning before attaching.

Hi there and thank you for all the replies.
To put it more precisely: there is no problem when it comes to loading the page. It loads well and ( as a subscriber) I can log in. I literally meant that I can't read any articles. I can click on any header  but then nothing happens at all. It seems like no links are recognized by dooble, so there is nothing to open, with a few exceptions.

For the german readers:
Hallo und vielen Dank für die vielen Antworten.
Um es genauer zu sagen: Es gibt kein Problem mit dem Laden der Seite. Sie lädt relativ schnell und (als Abonnent) kann ich mich einloggen. Ich meinte wörtlich, dass ich keine Artikel lesen kann. Ich kann auf eine beliebige Überschrift klicken, aber dann passiert gar nichts. Es scheint, als ob dooble keine Links erkennt, so dass sich bis auf wenige Ausnahmen nichts öffnen lässt.

How would you install the new dooble build?

It sounds like it requires QT6. Does the VOICE repository have QT6? Are any .exp repositories needed?

The version I built is linked against Qt5, just the possibility of linking to Qt 6.5.2 was added to Dooble, so the source supports building against Qt5 or various Qt6 levels.

When I try to get the dooble at ftp://dry@ftp.os2voice.org/rpm/, I get password required.

ftp://dry@ftp.os2voice.org/rpm/ (http://ftp://dry@ftp.os2voice.org/rpm/)

Is there something wrong with link above?

Nope, the link is correct and has the username already in it: dry (the string before the "@" in the url).
You only have to supply an emailaddress for the password. Dave already explained that in a previous post (reply 123 in this thread, from July 27).

Neil, you should also have access to the rpm's on arcanoae-exp. They're the same rpm's, just that the Arca Noae repositories are the only ones I have access to and it was requested to use arcanoae-exp for these.
Need to look into making them available on the Netlabs server.

Yes, but I can't share. You could email Lewis and ask for access but generally it is for the beta testers and such.

Thanks Dave

Here it seems to working as the latter version ported. For the moment no new issues here.

Just a question, does someone know how to change the download folder of Dooble? I can not find it on the options.

Regards

Hi Martin, go to Tools-->Downloads, which opens the downloads page. At the top of the page you can set the Download Path.

Thanks Dave, that was so easy and counter-intuitive at the same time  ;D ;D ;D

Hi Eugene, is playing sound on YouTube back to working for you?

Hi!

How to correct this error I have since several dooble drop (it worked with older one)
As well, translates files aren't found too ! 
dooble needs a lot of time to establish a session and load first page at startup ! (more than 10s after dooble is up)

Regards

Update:  about translates, I found that the location under RPM is share/dooble/translates while dooble is looking under usr/bin/translates (added this dir resolved the translate error message but dict isn't resolved yet.

David, Yes sound works fine.

Hi Remy, thanks for the report. Guess I need to test on a virgin system. For now, move the dictionaries to @unixroot\usr\bin\webengine_dictionaries.

Dave one system I tested was a virgin system non the other supporting Yum packages were installed. Work just the same as my other installs. In short no issues.

Hi Eugene, did you test the spell checker and/or the translations?
BTW, interesting that YouTube works for you, here when playing AV1 videos, which seems to be most of them, video playback pauses after a few seconds and stays stuck.
You can right click on a video and choose "Stats for Nerds" to see what the video/audio formats are.

Hi Remy, thanks for the report. Guess I need to test on a virgin system. For now, move the dictionaries to @unixroot\usr\bin\webengine_dictionaries.

Or use the environment variable DOOBLE_TRANSLATIONS_PATH to point to wherever you have placed the translation files.

I found Dmitry's patch to look in the system paths, so will apply that. Thought there was one for the dictionaries, couldn't find it though.

Hi Remy, thanks for the report. Guess I need to test on a virgin system. For now, move the dictionaries to @unixroot\usr\bin\webengine_dictionaries.

This path is taken and found.
Now, dictionaries have to be in .bdic binary format while those insalled using ANPM only have .dic and .aff  (.bdic missing)
I found the .bdic at :  https://github.com/cvsuser-chromium/third_party_hunspell_dictionaries

enabling the use of the added dic, as soon as I try to update a form field, it fails.
e.g. adding my userid into the userid loging field for os2world forum.

Note: other bug, the suppr key doesn't work in a form field...

Something else to add to the readme. @unixroot\usr\lib\qt5\bin\qwebengine_convert_dict.exe will convert the myspell dictionaries. Run with no parameters to see how to use.
I had no problem logging on here with Dooble and posting this shows lots of words such as Dooble that aren't in the dictionary. Perhaps something wrong with your profile or the bdic dictionary is broken.
The suppr, or delete key not working is a known Qt issue.

Ok, I build the dictionaries and set one dictionary to use.
I tried again to loging to os2world, first form (userid) was ok but as soon I click in the psw field, the page failes ! (replaced by a full grey page and have to reload it to get back)

Try, with Dooble closed, renaming %HOME%\.dooble and retry. Logging into OS2World works fine for me, just doesn't stay logged in after closing the browser, a cookie problem I assume.

Considering this everyday happens to me on my Windows machines, I don't think it's a dooble problem.
