2. Tide and current icons and graphics have been improved here. Please check and verify on the various scaled platforms.
3. o-charts users: Current o-charts v2.0.0.38 is fully synchronized with this core Beta release.

We are getting pretty close to a Release Candidate. Virtually all of the functional issues reported in Beta1/2/3 have been addressed and resolved in this Beta#4. Please review carefully, testing this Beta against your prior bug reports. If you do not see resolution of the bug(s), please report on this thread for timely analysis.

Can somebody take care about the Dutsch translation? Looks orphaned.

The OD.. I suppose is from plugin odraw_pi?
The "WMM_live_overlay" is present, at least for SE, in plugin WMM at Crowdin.

@bcdcat..
OpenCPN\include\SendToPeerDlg.h seems missing in include.in
(That's where _("Send to Peer") is initialized)

I did manage to make it work with a few tide stations that icons does not want to show on the chart, although the result curve can be seen when we click on the correct location. It is OK on 5.6.2 opencpn. Charts are OK.

Re: OpenCPN Version 5.7.1 Beta Test #4

one screenshot, 3 problems:


  1. outline of mbtiles with single zoomlevel z18 is not shown
  2. MUI button bar randomly is several rows too wide and too long. minimizing restoring O, fixes that temporarily
  3. O status bar does not show, but instead shows what a window behind shows
Debian Bookworm, x64, KDE/plasma on X11, O compiled from latest git master.

Re: OpenCPN Version 5.7.1 Beta Test #4

If opencpn is running with an un-acknowledged ais sound alarm, it will become unusable after about 15 minutes. Cannot receive new alarms, open new charts, does not save changes, etc.

Sometime you are too buzy to acknowledge alarms.

When a sound alarm is active, O opens the soundfile every second. When 1024 files are opened the system will not open new files...

Even if you acknowledge the alarms, the sound files remain open and eventually you will reach the magic number of 1024 opened files.

How to reproduce:

- configure O to sound CPA alarm
- arrange to have a CPA alarm
- do not acknowledge alarm
- after about 1000 sounds,
- the alarm will stop sounding
- if you move the view, new charts will not open
- track stop being saved
- if you check the log wou will see many: 09:39:59.211 WARNING SndfileSoundLoader.cpp:36 Cannot open file /usr/share/opencpn/sounds/beep_ssl.wav: System error : Too many files opened.

To see a list of the opened files issue this command:
Code:
ls -l /proc/$(ps -C opencpn -o pid=|tr -d " ")/fd
All this has been tested with same results on:

- Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS on Lenovo Thinkpad (x86_64)
- Flatpak on same machine
- Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) on a Raspberry pi 4 (armv7l)

While documenting this, I found that eventually any sound will cause the problem:

- anchor alarm
- Ships' bell

Create anchor watch alarm, wait 15 minutes.


Until this is resolved O is unusable with sound (all sounds) in linux.

This problem started with O 5.6 and reported in fs #2895

Re: OpenCPN Version 5.7.1 Beta Test #4

LoL...
MBTiles outline:
I think that if you zoom out, you may find that the tile outline is a simple rectangle encompassing the entire tile extents. If this is not so, can you post the tile file here for analysis?


The other two problems are specific to Bookworm/KDE. I'll try to spin up a virtual and investigate.


Thanks
Dave
