New in Miro 1.2 RC1 (Mar 17, 2008)

  • There are some interesting bug fixes and updates included in this release as well as some serious behind the scenes changes.
  • We have added the highly-requested feature to allow a global option to control channel autodownload settings.
  • Separate preferences to control manual and automatic simultaneous downloads.
  • A preference to set the torrent upload ratio.
  • There were also some big changes to fundamental parts of the application. They shouldn't have any obvious effects but definitely require thorough testing prior to release. This includes: Frontend - Backend reorganization, Update to Perian 1.1 (affecting Mac OS X)

New in Miro 0.9.9.9 (Nov 1, 2007)

  • Miro now shows the channel icon instead of the generic video icon each video in a channel. It�s a simple change that makes a big difference.
  • If you search for a video in your Library or a channel and then start playing it, Miro will remember the search term when you stop playing the video. Fixes a small annoyance.
  • Miro now has the ability to add alternate channel guides and initiate individual video downloads with a 1-click button. We�ll be putting up 1-click button makers for these features soon and we�ll be integrating this functionality into the Miro Guide.
  • We�ve spent some time improving the first-time user experience. When you run Miro for the first time, you�ll see this page which has a quick video overview and you�ll be able to subscribe to some batches of channels on specific themes, like Sports, News, Food, etc. We hope it will help new users get their bearings a little more easily.
  • At the request of video bloggers, we�ve put a �permalink� below the video playback area. This makes it easy to go to that video post and leave a comment. Someday we�d love to have integrated commenting.
  • Some install functionality that makes our Co-Branded Miro service possible.
  • Compatibility with OSX Leopard and Ubuntu Gutsy.
  • Lots of bug fixes and small tweaks.
