CHANGELOG.txt

@@ -18,14 +18,18 @@ Changes:
 - DietPi-Software | Kodi: On Raspberry Pi Bullseye systems, the new official Raspberry Pi repository build for Kodi 19.3 is now installed. You can apply the upgrade manually by reinstalling Kodi: dietpi-software reinstall 31
 - DietPi-Software | Kodi: The addon repository is now installed by default with all Kodi installs, which previously was the case only on RPi and Odroids. When currently missing, it can be manually installed: apt install kodi-repository-kodi
 - DietPi-Software | Gitea: The service runs now as dedicated user "gitea" with its home directory "/mnt/dietpi_userdata/gitea" to allow easy transfer and usage of SSH keys for remote access. This applies to newly installed or reinstalled Gitea instances. Many thanks to @LilTrublMakr for reporting the related limitation with the previously used "dietpi" user: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4620
+- DietPi-Software | Chromium: On Raspberry Pi, the chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra package is now installed together with Chromium, which adds additional codecs for patented video/audio formats. Many thanks to @Krawei for identifying this Chromium video playback enhancement: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/5013
 
 Fixes:
 - Raspberry Pi | Resolved an issue in our images where on first boot two serial login consoles on the generic symlinked and actual serial devices could have been started. This doubled inputs and in turn broke successful username and password login via serial console on first boot. Many thanks to @ad7718 for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/5014 
 - DietPi-Backup | Resolved an issue where backup and restore failed if a non-default backup location is used, as a wrong log file path was used. This is a v7.8 regression. Many thanks to @Malinka for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=39909#p39909
+- DietPi-Config | Resolved an issue where enabling the "odroid-lcd35" LCD panel on Odroids failed as SPI is enabled by default, blocking the same GPIO ports. Many thanks to @MarcProux for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4154
 - DietPi-Software | Resolved a v7.8 regression where ReadyMedia, Deluge, Sonarr and Jellyfin installs failed with an error on "usermod", since the services were not stopped first. This has been loved via live patches for v7.8 as well.
 - DietPi-Software | Transmission: Resolved a v7.8 regression where on fresh installs the intended configuration was not deployed. Many thanks to @kannz and @alessandro.psrt for reporting this issue: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=9567, https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=9683
 - DietPi-Software | SABnzbd: Resolved an issue where installs failed on ARMv6 and ARMv7 Stretch systems. Many thanks to @bensp for reporting this issue: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4997
 - DietPi-Software | Deluge: Worked around an issue on Raspberry Pi ARMv6 userland systems where the service failed to start. Deluge has hence been re-enabled for this systems. Many thanks to @themagicbullet for providing the workaround: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/4944
+- DietPi-Software | UnRAR: Resolved an issue on Raspberry Pi 1 an Zero (1) where an incompatible "unrar" binary was installed. "unrar-free" from Raspbian is installed now on these models, but note that it does not fully support all RAR formats and may hence fail to extract archives in some cases.
+- DietPi-Software | rTorrent: Resolved an issue where with Apache webserver the /RPC2 proxy to the rTorrent UNIX socket did not work due to invalid syntax. Many thanks to @Camry2731 for reporting this issue.
 
 As always, many smaller code performance and stability improvements, visual and spelling fixes have been done, too much to list all of them here. Check out all code changes of this release on GitHub: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/pull/XXXX
