Hello everyone, this is a quick fix for the Carla Plugin Host (soon-to-be) stable series.<br/> |
|
|
|
Only very small fixes here, and a change on how specific plugins load.<br/> |
|
|
|
This release starts a "release early, release often" attitude, that hopefully I can maintain from now on.<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|

<h3>Changelog</h3> |
|
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
|
<li>Fixes crash for bridge-lv2-x11 when manually started from CLI</li> |
|
|
|
<li>LV2: Don't prefer plugin bridges for certain hardcoded plugins (Calf, ir.lv2 and v1 series)</li> |
|
|
|
<li>VST: Do not call plugin effEditIdle on update display opcode, fixes crashes for a few plugins</li> |
|
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
Previously a few plugins were hardcoded to run as plugin bridges, as deemed unsafe because of how they use their plugin UIs (instance-access).<br/> |
|
|
|
Carla automatically started these plugins as bridges, as to not crash the main process when Gtk and Qt gets in the way.<br/> |
|
|
|
Plugin state in bridges have a few issues (as plugin bridges are experimental right now), which I was hoping to fix before 2.0 final is here.<br/> |
|
|
|
But that will not happen it seems (not an easy fix), so now these plugins will run normally as all others do, in the same process.<br/> |
|
|
|
This means the following possible breaking changes:<br/> |
|
|
|
</p> |
|
|
|
<ul> |
|
|
|
<li>If v1 plugin series are compiled with a Qt version different than the one Carla is using, expect a crash on load or soon afterwards</li> |
|
|
|
<li>Calf plugin UIs will be missing their graphs by default, unless you disable running plugin UIs in bridge mode in Carla settings</li> |
|
|
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
This is not an issue for other plugin UIs that use Qt or Gtk, as they do not use LV2 instance-access.<br/> |
|
|
|
Carla runs Gtk and Qt LV2 UIs in a separate process, but because these UIs require direct access to the plugin instance, they cannot be bridged.<br/> |

<h3>Future</h3> |
|
|
|
<p> |
|
|
|
A "2.0-final" milestone is on GitHub, which lists the remaining issues to be fixed before 2.0 is considered "final".<br/> |
|
|
|
New features already made its way to Carla, but sit on the develop branch.<br/> |
|
|
|
When the "final" version is release, expect a 2.1-beta to come shortly afterwards. |
