Campcaster 1.4 “Monrovia” Beta 2 packages available
Packages for the long-awaited Beta 2 release of Campcaster 1.4 (code-named "Monrovia") are now up on the Campcaster Ubuntu repository. These packages are for testing only, and will only work on Ubuntu Hardy.
The main change in the 1.4 Beta 2 release is a fix of a blocking bug: The scheduler now plays all files in a scheduled playlist.
The 1.4 Beta 2 packages can be downloaded by adding the Campcaster repository to your list of available software. For Synaptic users, this is under Settings -> Repositories -> Third Party Software and then adding this address:
deb https://www.campware.org/ubuntu hardy main
Then press the ‘refresh’ button and do a search for ‘Campcaster’. You should then see the 1.4.0-2beta2 packages.
These packages are for testing only; we do not recommend you use them to power your broadcast until we have had the time to get some proper testing in. But this is something where you – the Campcaster community – can help as well.
We need people to test this release to see if everything works as advertised, and if it doesn’t, we need bug reports.
