Changelog 

View the full changelog

Lots of new built-in objects and code cleanup are the highlights of yet another
Swfdec release. And a little less condensed:
- rework of what APIs call into the script engine. This greatly simplifies using
  libswfdec in applications.
- reowkr invalidation handling. Less parts of the screen need to be redrawn on
  changes, but the SwfdecPlayer::invalidate signal changed.
- support the built-in Date, XML, Sound, System.capabilities and TextField
  objects plus MovieClip drawing functions
- add initial support for blend modes and filters (full support is expected with
  Cairo 1.6)
- clean up initialization, video engine, sound engine and shape parsing code.
  All the code should now be more robust, easier to read and have less broken
  corner cases. And Swfdec supports VP6 alpha video now.
- lots of old Flash files that use Flash 4-style paths to lookup values should
  work correctly now.
- a huge list of bugfixes and little features, see the git log for details.
