Fixes for recent regressions - Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.5.652.8
Blogpost and full changelog: Fixes for recent regressions - Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.5.652.8 - Vivaldi Web browser Community

A small update with fixes for some recent regressions, including a fix for proprietary media for Windows 32-bit users without hardware acceleration.

I just wanted to add a small note on our terminology as I have seen some confusion in the comments previously. A regression is something that we had working previously and the behavior has "regressed" to a non-working state.

As always, thanks for all the testing and feedback. We're progressing in the right direction for a great 1.5 stable release!

It's going fast! Thirth snapshot in 3 days:
Inline editing of bookmarks and notes - Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.5.653.3
Blogpost and full changelog: Inline editing of bookmarks and notes - Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.5.653.3 - Vivaldi Web browser Community

Today we've added initial support for editing bookmarks without the need for using the bookmark editor! You can also edit note titles using the same approach.

Like the bookmarks bar, you can now edit a bookmark's title directly in both the panel and manager. Select the bookmark in question and press "F2" ("Enter" in future macOS builds), then type your new title.

This feature can also be used in Notes, meaning you can now give your notes unique titles, seperate from their contents.

Blogpost: Vivaldi 1.5RC 2 - Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.5.658.27 - Vivaldi Web browser Community

We are issuing a new 1.5 release candidate, after fixing a couple of serious issues with moving (via the context menu) or dropping tabs between windows. We have also updated various translations.

Note: This build will receive updates from the snapshot autoupdate stream. Even if no further issues are fixed, Vivaldi will be rebuilt for the stable autoupdate stream, resulting in a further version number change.
