Dev update: Integrated Adobe Flash Player Plug-in

mardi 30 mars 2010

The Google Chrome Dev channel has been updated to 5.0.360.4 for Windows and Mac and 5.0.360.5 for Linux.

This release includes:

An integrated Adobe Flash Player Plug-in. We're integrating Adobe Flash Player 10.1.51.95 (10.1 beta 3) with Google Chrome so that you don't have to install it or worry about keeping it up-to-date. See the blog post on the Chromium blog for more details.

To use the bundled Flash Player plug-in, add --enable-internal-flash to your command line or shortcut for starting Google Chrome.
A basic plug-in manager. The about:plugins page now lets you disable any plug-in from loading on all web pages. See the Known Issues section: this doesn't work in all cases yet if you already have Adobe Flash Player for Windows Firefox, Safari, or Opera installed.

Known Issues:

On Windows, if you have Adobe Flash Player for Windows Firefox, Safari, or Opera installed, the Flash plug-in will still work in some cases even if you decline the license agreement (when using --enable-internal-flash) or disable the Flash plugin from about:plugins. We're working on it.
If you disable (or enable) a plugin on about:plugins, your change does not take effect until you restart Google Chrome.
There is no bundled Adobe Flash Player plug-in for 64-bit Linux.

Beta Update: Finally a Chrome 5 Beta for Windows

vendredi 26 mars 2010

Google Chrome 5.0.342.8 has been released to the Beta channel on Windows.

Now that all Beta users are on the same revision, we can disclose the following security issues fixed in this release:

Beta Update: Translate for the Mac

jeudi 25 mars 2010

Google Chrome 5.0.342.7 has been released to the Beta channel for Mac users (we released Linux yesterday). The highlights for Mac are basically the same, with the addition of Full Screen view working.
We finally have automatic translation for all Beta users.
Highlights:

Automatic translations and greater control over content for privacy. The Google Chrome 4.1 Beta announcement for Windows explains these features in more detail.

Full screen mode

Really, really reload. A normal reload causes the browser to check with the server before reusing its cached content. The server can decide whether or not the browser should use its cached content. A force reload causes the browser to ignore its cached content and ask the server for a fresh copy of the page. Use Shift+Reload to force a reload (the reload keyboard shortcut varies by platform).

To get on the Beta channel, you can download Google Chrome from http://www.google.com/chrome?platform=mac.
If you find issues, please let us know by filing a bug.

Here are the highlights since the 307.11 update:

Automatic translations and greater control over content for privacy. The Google Chrome 4.1 Beta announcement for Windows explains these features in more detail.

To get on the Beta channel, you can download Google Chrome from http://www.google.com/chrome?platform=linux
