@moem SoC stands for System on a Chip, this is (more or less) the equivalent of the processor on the PCs. In any case, thank you for having answered my questions. So if anybody else has some experience on building, please let me know, thanks !

@drikk Thank you so much, I was not hoping a so good / complete feedback !

Although, thinking about it, I am not sure if our API key can handle the additional load of data calls. We might need to implement an option for users of snap/appimages to use their own API codes. This should be solvable, but should be considered.

@prog-amateur If I remember Pantalaimon isn't in the store; it is a click package. Let me find the link. https://forums.ubports.com/topic/5727/detailed-procedure-for-fluffychat-encryption-via-pantalaimon?_=1628359843604

@mou-du-gnu I don't understand the search for work arounds while this is obviously a bug in the synchronisation routine with nextcloud. Has there already been an issue raised for this? It needs to be fixed in the sync software, since as you have seen no work-around will work for all the different usecases of the calendar.

@applee Yes with pleasure, I hope it will help

@prog-amateur @Moem is right this is not something possible at the moment. That's a big issue and many people expect this feature sooner than later. Be sure that when this is possible you'll hear drums and trumpet :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@applee @domubpkm : thank you very much for sharing your experience. This uVideo seems to be new to me, I don't remember there was another movie player than UTmedia and the original Media player, I have to test it ! There is also some issues I meet currently (mainly Nextcloud CalDAV), I think I may post a new thread if I don't succeed to solve the issue. EDIT : I confirm that my videos taken from my camera can be played on uVideo, this app handles .mp4, .webm, and .ogv extensions so that's cool ! I don't know if this app handles subtitles, but with this and support of .mkv, then, it would be a perfect app.

@applee Thanks for the hint. I might try it one of theses days, but right now I'm perfectly fine with the solution I've found.

VLC will still have issues, as it's not using hardware decoding, and likely would still need to run under xmir, depending on what it's actually using to render video.

After learning about Windows Phones, I have found the following so far : bootloaders can be unlocked (with Windows Phone Internal software) it is possible to have root access Android hardware components are not available for UBports "clones" (only non-clones).

@prog-amateur said in VLC under Libertine question: Hello, I have installed VLC in a Libertine container. As it has been said, it is very difficult to click on buttons as the icons and characters are very small. I have an idea : why do not install a skin ? VLC has many skins, including "ftouch 1.00" or "WMP11_B -" which have large buttons, easier to use in touchscreen. I have downloaded them, but VLC asks for a path to pick them up, so please, do you know where to put my skins files ? Thank you very much. For information : my VLC Libertine path is : .local > share > libertine-container > user-data > xenial > .local > share > vlc Looking here https://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins.php I guess you have to add a skins2 folder at the end. Just keep in mind there is no hw acceleration for video playback via libertine, so the usefulness will be still very limited

Just to be clear, this leaked nothing more that what your User Agent does. So your privacy was very fine. No requests at all were sent to canonical servers.

@arubislander, All update options (system update and ubports-installer) are interrupted at the firmware installation stage (ubuntu touch logo and line installation indicator), except one-manual installation via TWRP. To update the device I have to download separately the firmware and run the installer in TWRP environment. Is there a link to new releases of updated ubports firmware where I could download it and install manually?

@dobey thank you for the interesting explanation!
