Known issues

The page lists known problems of Sophie in this release. Some of these issues may be cleared up by daily builds, which are available on the downloads page.

Known issues on all platforms

• Web sites using Flash don't work in browser frames and may make Sophie unresponsive.
• Sophie's performance is better on computers when running in Java 6 than it is in Java 5; if your computer has both, make sure that you're using Java 6.
• There are issues with some movie files and large resources.
• Large video files can't currently be imported.
• Autochaining creates new pages but doesn't yet respect layouts.
• Parts of the timeline interface still work incorrectly.
• Not all resources can be exported in their original formats yet.

Mac issues

• Currently, downloading a Sophie book in Safari may change the extension from .spbf to .spbf.zip. Remove the .zip suffix; the books will open normally in Sophie.
• The menu bars in the Mac application don't appear in the standard location for Mac applications.

Windows issues

• An audio bug means that audio and video may cause crashes; this will be corrected soon.

Linux issues

• There may be audio issues on 32-bit Linux systems.
