Dear Python users, The Elisa team is happy to announce the release of Elisa Media Center 0.5.36, code-named "Surfin' Bird". Elisa is a cross-platform and open-source Media Center written in Python. It uses GStreamer [1] for media playback and pigment [2] to create an appealing and intuitive user interface. This release is a lightweight release, meaning it is pushed through our automatic plugin update system. Additionally a windows installer is available for download on our website. This installer fixes various crashers. As usual, for users running a version of Elisa >= 0.5.35, the upgrade to 0.5.36 should be done automatically via the plugin repository. As usual, tarballs are provided for distribution packagers. A complete list of the issues fixed can be found at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/elisa/+milestone/0.5.36 This is also summarised in the (attached) release notes. Installers and sources can be downloaded from http://elisa.fluendo.com/download/ Bug reports and feature requests are welcome at http://bugs.launchpad.net/elisa/+filebug Have a media-centered evening, Olivier, for the Elisa team [1] http://www.gstreamer.net/ [2] https://code.fluendo.com/pigment/trac Elisa 0.5.36 "Surfin' Bird" =========================== This is Elisa 0.5.36, thirty-sixth release of the 0.5 branch.
