14 DAY TRIAL // Cheese, a Photobooth-inspired GNOME application for taking pictures and videos from a webcam that also includes graphical effects based on the gstreamer backend, is now at version 3.13.4.
Cheese can be used to take photos and videos, and it's based on GNOME 3.0, GStreamer, Clutter, and GNOME Video Effects. This latest development version brings quite a few changes, and users might find the finished product GNOME 3.14 somewhat different from the previous version.
According to the changelog, the flash opacity is now being tracked properly, the flash timeout tags have been set in order to avoid calling g_source_remove() spuriously, and a better fallback image location is now used.
Moreover, the new GtkApplication appmenu resource handling is now used, the desktop file name in AppData has been matched, and a crash that occurred during a delete-event in the chooser test has been fixed.
Also, a traditional title bar is now used when it's requested, while the avatar chooser headerbar is used only when requested. Additionally, the D-Bus service file has been added, and old maintainers have been removed from the DOAP file.
A complete list of changes can be found in the official announcement. You can download Cheese 3.13.4 right now from Softpedia.
Remember that this is a development version and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended for testing purposes only.
