OpenLP 3.0.1 "Fast Phinehas" Released

As we said in our previous
announcement, we are moving to rolling out fixes and updates faster. So here, hot
in the heels of our 3.0 release, is version 3.0.1 which contains a number of
fixes for issues you may have experienced.

Bugs Fixed

• Fix theme loading of presentations

• Fix a bug when migrating 2.4.6 presentations to 3.0

• Fix song ordering for certain languages (On Linux this introduces a dependency on PyICU)

• Fix an error when exporting song reporting

• Fix the remote version test

• Fix Print Service missing newlines on print

• Video volume and repeat settings are now saved consistently between media.

Known Issues

Warning

Ubuntu 22.04, Linux Mint

The main view in the web remote does not update automatically on Ubuntu 22.04
due to Ubuntu/Mint shipping an old version of python3-websockets. This can be
fixed by downloading and installing an updated version of the package from
the official Ubuntu
archive.

Warning

Wayland on Linux

OpenLP at present does not behave well under Wayland so the recommendation is
to run under X11. If you can't run in X11 (or prefer to run it in XWayland),
you should start it with QT_QPA_PLATFORM environment variable set to xcb,
although the Main View from the Web Remote will not work.

Warning

Video backgrounds

Video / streaming backgrounds and background audio in songs currently do not
work together. You may experience either the video not working but the audio
works, or the audio doesn't work while the video does.

Warning

macOS

macOS may report OpenLP as damaged. If you encounter this problem, you can try
the following solution:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 41)</string>

Unexpected indentation.

1. From Applications / Utilities run Terminal

2. In Terminal, type in the following command:

   xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/OpenLP.app
   

3. This should allow you to start OpenLP normally

Warning

macOS on Apple Silicon Chips

The VLC integration does not work.

Some people have reported success when downloading and installing the
Universal Binary from the VLC
website, but we have not
confirmed this.

Download

Head on over to the downloads section of the
website to download version 3.0.1 now!

Note

Linux users

Please note that distributions can take a few days to be updated. Please be
