5 months ago

Fixes:
  • Fixed a long standing issue that would cause many device nodes to have
    inconsistent naming, with a '.N' suffix (where N is a number >= 2) being
    appended at seemingly random times (#500)
  • Fixed an issue that would cause unavailable device profiles to be selected
    if they were previously stored in the state file, sometimes requiring users
    to manually remove the state file to get things working again (#613)
  • Fixed an occasional crash that could sometimes be triggered by hovering
    the volume icon on the KDE taskbar, and possibly other similar actions
    (#628, !644)
  • Fixed camera device deduplication logic when the same device is available
    through both V4L2 and libcamera, and the libcamera one groups multiple V4L2
    devices together (#623, !636)
  • Fixed applying the default volume on streams that have no volume previously
    stored in the state file (#655)
  • Fixed an issue that would prevent some camera nodes - in some cases -
    from being destroyed when the camera device is removed (#640)
  • Fixed an issue that would cause video stream nodes to be linked with audio
    smart filters, if smart audio filters were configured (!647)
  • Fixed an issue that would cause WP to re-activate device profiles even
    though they were already active (!639)
  • Configuration files in standard JSON format (starting with a '{', among
    other things) are now correctly parsed (#633)
  • Fixed overriding non-container values when merging JSON objects (#653)
  • Functions marked with WP_PRIVATE_API are now also marked as
    non-introspectable in the gobject-introspection metadata (#599)

Improvements:

  • Logging on the systemd journal now includes the log topic and also the log
    level and location directly on the message string when the log level is
    high enough, which is useful for gathering additional context in logs
    submitted by users (!640)
  • Added a video-only profile in wireplumber.conf, for systems where only
    camera & screensharing are to be used (#652)
  • Improved seat state monitoring so that Bluetooth devices are only enabled
    when the user is active on a local seat, instead of allowing remote users
    as well (!641)
  • Improved how main filter nodes are detected for the smart filters (!642)
  • Added Lua method to merge JSON containers (!637)
