Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Just a short notice - a new Mieru version with a Qt Components GUI will be released in the coming days.
It will first be released for Harmattan (N9 & N950) and then then for Fremantle (N900), once some Fremantle Qt Components issues are resolved. A few highlights:

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Release announcement repost from the other Mieru thread on forum.meego.com.
I have not yet really tested this new Mieru version with Qt Components based GUI on Fremantle, but it should hopefully run without requiring many changes. It is my pleasure to introduce Mieru - a flexible manga and comic book reader. Mieru (見える) is a Japanese word that can be translated as to be seen, to look or to appear. Project resources website (temporary) issue tracker <- for submitting bugs & feature requests source code repository How to turn pages: just tap on the left (go back) or right (go to next) half of the screen. http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre...screenshot.png Mieru showing a page in portrait with visible toolbar http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre...screenshot.png The same page in landscape with hidden toolbar http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre...screenshot.png Mieru uses this powerful open-file dialog adapted from the QML version of Cacheme and remembers last used folder http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/scre...screenshot.png Mieru can be flexibly reconfigured using the options page Feature overview:
How to get Mieru Ovi store Mieru should be available from Ovi store once it clears the Ovi QA. Apps for Meego Mieru has been submitted to apps.formeego.com and is waiting for community feedback to pass the community QA. If you have a few minutes, please help by testing Mieru according to the Apps for MeeGo Community QA howto, so that it can soon enter the main Apps repository. Manual package installation It is also possible to install the Mieru package manually. (installation from Ovi or Apps doesn't need developer mode and is fully automatic) Prerequisites: become root be running devel-su in the developer mode

Also: Testers needed ! :) Mieru is one positive testing report away from entering the main Apps for meego repository. What needs to be done ? If want to help, just follow the Apps for MeeGo testing guidelines and fill in the test form on the Mieru testing page. Don't forget the Should the application be in this application catalog ? checkbox! :) Thanks in advance ! |

Also, thanks to all the other testers ! :D Mieru is now in the Apps for MeeGo main repository and can be easily installed using the Apps for MeeGo client ! :D Or even easier, just scan the attached QR code and press Download (you need to have a QR code scanning application like MeeScan and the the Apps for MeeGo client installed for this to work. :) ). |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
The new version looks really nice, But since I "only" have an N900 I can't use it (yet). So any news about a N900/Fremantle Version ;) ?

Please add page fitting for Harmattan version.

- Fit to screen in portrait and to width in landscape automatically. - Lock minimizing when whole page is inside the viewing area (portrait) and when page width equal to screen width in landscape. (no blank area around the page) btw I think I found a bug. 1. Read a manga chapter 2. Quit Mieru 3. Delete the manga chapter using filebox 4. Now in Mieru open anything, it will only show the first page with chapter size (1/0). to fix: go to history and remove the deleted chapter |

Also a friend of mine tried to run Mieru with new Qt Components based GUI on his N900 with CSSU - after commenting out a single line, everything works with very minor issues (a missing icon, some unaligned labels, no minimize button) and the performance is reportedly really good. |
Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
the orientation mode is awesome, thanks alot.
- When in settings page, rotate the phone from portrait to landscape and back make on/off sliders disappear. - Having statusbar activated cut part of the suggestion popup. I got mieru.py error when I use the new version fir the first time, but it's gone now. |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Time for an official release post. :)
Mieru 2.2.3 has been released ! The main improvement is the support for multiple page fitting modes, Mieru no longer gets stuck when the current chapter is deleted and reads files with Japanese/Chinese and other Unicode characters in name without a hitch. Changelog: Code:
V 2.2.3 |
Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
looking forward to fremantle update!
(some of my suggestions still never made it on n900 :( ) |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Everything works fine now, thanks very much. i haveöthe latest version but there is only fmo link in the info page.
Is it possible to have "new release" notification for mangas in the library ? Having library in list view with cover image and chapters and volumes separated like it's done in Tv-series section in Xbmc remote would be awesome. Images can be found on mangafox as well as info whether there is new chapter. |

I plan to support both - looks like the version for Fremantle CSSU can share the same QML files with Harmattan while Fremantle Vanilla needs separate "forked" files due to specific Qt Components namespace (org.maemo.fremantle) and all the glitches. |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Updated package for Maemo 5 Fremantle with CSSU
So I finally worked out most of the quirk for running Mieru 2.x on Fremantle and made an installable package. :) It's manual installation only for the moment though I plan to also properly update the package in Extras in due time. This package also basically requires CSSU - you can install it even without it but quite a lot important things (like page fitting) just don't work properly, most probably to old & broken Qt/QML/PySide version. If you spot some bugs or other issues, please let me know. :) How to install ? First, you need to became root. Then, install all the needed dependencies: Code:
apt-get install qt-components-10 libzip1 unrar python-pyside.qtgui python-pyside.qtdeclarativeCode:
apt-get remove mieruCode:
wget http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/packages/mieru_2.2.27_armel.debCode:
dpkg -i mieru_2.2.27_armel.debJust uninstall the package and install it from Extras-devel: Code:
apt-get remove mieruTap the upper left corner. :) How to shutdown Mieru ? There is a Quit button in the main menu. |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Okay, did a rm -rf /opt/mieru and a reinstall and now it works!
(only saw the warning /opt/mieru/gui/qml_gui.py:38: GtkWarning: gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed) Edit: interface looks beautiful. |
Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader

Rm-rf-ing the /opt/mieru folder should be safe as all user data is stored in ~/.mieru anyway. :) I'll try to reproduce the issue (eq. installing the package over the version from Extras) tomorrow and find a fix for it. :) Quote:
BTW, anynone else get those startup errors, this how you can start Mieru directly, without the startup script in /usr/bin/mieru: Code:
python /opt/mieru/mieru.py -u harmattan -p maemo5 |

However, it's time to start thinking about applications depending on latest CSSU. Right now, you won't be able to promote this package to Extras, and that rule should be overridden. |
Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
One remark and one question :)
Question: Is it my imagination, or could I zoom with the volume buttons in the previous version? Maybe I am mistaken and it was never there... Edit: it was for turning pages. New method is even better. Remark: Could you add an icon to the latest installable deb file? It is missing now. |
Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Might be a silly comment, but: why is the japanese set in a serif font when the regular name set in sans-serif on the splash harmattan splash screen? lol

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
I have found and (hopefully) fixed the installation issue. Quite interestingly, it was caused by old byte compiled python (*.pyc) files remaining from the previous version overriding new files, leading to those "argument not found" errors.
Updated installation instructions First, you need to became root. Then, install all the needed dependencies: Code:
apt-get install qt-components-10 libzip1 unrar python-pyside.qtgui python-pyside.qtdeclarativeCode:
wget http://m4rtink.github.com/mieru/packages/mieru_2.2.29_armel.debCode:
dpkg -i mieru_2.2.29_armel.deb |

Maemo 5 zoom example Example on Maemo Wiki Not really sure how to do this from Python + PySide... Some sort of an utility/wrapper written in C/C++ might be needed. :) Quote:

Here is what I did to make it show on my device: - Resized the icon to 64x64 and put it in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps. - Moved mieru.desktop to /usr/share/applications/hildon (from /usr/share/applications) and changed the reference to the icon. Now it shows the icon in the menu, but maybe it is a specific issue on my device after all. |

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
Mieru package in Apps for MeeGo updated - testing needed !
I have updated the Mieru package in Apps for MeeGo testing, so it is currently on the same level as the version in Ovi store. Please test (see the community QA testing guidelines) and then fill in the QA form. Don't forget to tick in Should the application be in this application catalog?, provided that you think Mieru is worthy of this, of course. :) Thanks in advance ! :) What do I need to test applications in Apps for MeeGo ?

Re: [Announce] Mieru: a flexible manga and comic book reader
A new version of QtComponents for Fremantle is in Extras Devel. Would you try to upload Mieru to Devel depending on it?
