Version 2.4.0 brings some major enhancements and bug fixes. Please note that the current state is still Beta. While it should work stable for most of the time, errors and bugs might occur. Feel free to report them as an issue.

Enhancements:

  • Editor for creating, editing, archivating, cloning and converting song files inside Cantara
  • Song selections can be exported with the songlyrics within and also imported into Cantara. For that, a new file format (SongTeX) has been implemented. The imported songs will be automatically added to the repository if necessary. This solves issue #7.
  • A setup assistent will help with the basic configuration of Cantara when started for the first time.

Bug Fixes:

  • Loading a presentation with background image took a long time, this is solved now.

Testing
