Zekr 0.7.1
From ZekrWiki
Zekr 0.7.1 is a bug-fix release over version 0.7.0.
There are some bug fixes and a new feature introduced in this release. Online recitations are now playing more smoothly, as a buffering scheme is added to prevent lags between playing two subsequent ayas. This pre-fetching method is mainly inspired from Tanzil.info JavaScript pre-fetching code.

Changes
New features/enhancements
- A new buffering (pre-fetching) scheme is used to avoid lags between reciting two ayas. This is done using a hidden flash player, which pre-fetches and loads the next aya.
- Added or updated some language packs and localized sura names (quran-properties-he.xml, russian.xml, spanish.xml, german.xml, arabic.xml, persian.xml)
- Windows installer script changed to support smart deletion when uninstalling the software. It now logs installed files, and so does not delete files which are changed or added after installation.
Bugs fixed
- A blocker bug which prevents Zekr starting fixed. It happened when the user disabled audio support through Tools > Options menu.
- A bug fixed with sending flash JavaScript events to a browser without any flash player. This happened when separate layout is selected (in which flash player is loaded in the translation browser).
- A bug fixed which caused menu icons being shown in Mac when toggling play-pause state of the player. Icons are not shown intentionally in Mac.
