Hot from the oven (hm... sounds creepy for "dolphin"), Dolphin 7.0.4 is ready for anyone willing to test-drive the latest and greatest. Major highlights of this updates are:
- Anti-spam functionality (rid your site of those annoying pricks that litter the Internet)
- Speed improvements (we're not ever going to stop on this one)
- Media Server update (finally, the latest version of RED5 adapted)
- About 100 bug-fixes
We don't plan to keep it Beta for too long, so any quick testing is highly appreciated. Note, hower, that there will be no update packs from this beta to the final release.
As always, please, post your specific reports at Dolphin Betas and RCs Forum, and keep this post comments for general impressions. Basically, if you want developers to see your post and work on it - post in forum. If you just want to express your opinion, say something general about this release, and you don't expect a reply - feel free to comment to this post.
As you may see, we keep polishing 7.0. We just don't want to proceed to adding any significant new functionality and preparing 7.1 until everyone has a very stable, fast, secure and capable software.

but why beta
we be waiting so long and now is a beta
Downloading now.
7.0.3 49 Days Ago
7.0.2 159 Days Ago
We waited a 110 days (3 months, 20 days) for 7.0.3 and you complaing that 7.0.4 beta took 49 days (1 month, 19 days).
It is a GOOD thing that boonex is asking for help testing the new features. Otherwise we may have to wait for 7.0.5 to fix a bug caused by 7.0.4
I am wondering if we can find out how the new media server (Red5) benefits the end user? Like will it produce better video quality, faster streaming etc?
Thanks a lot!
I been asking you many times to fix the hidding chat rooms in the chat
I add 50 rooms and still see the other rooms hidding and you can't scroll down to see the other rooms
come on guys I been asking you for the same thing many times from version >> 7.0 > 7.1 . > 7.2 > 7.3 and now you for got this in 7.4 Beta
and than you guys come to me hey you keep posting the see more
Now
Yes that was my best "valley girl" impression..
This is great news Andrew.. Especially knowing how much work I will have to redo in order to upgrade :(
(due to customization).. Of course I will wait for final release before upgrading the "live" site even though some will not...
Now there shouldn't be a lot of rooms, since all rooms which are created by regular users are deleted automatically when there is no people in it - this is new option in 7.0.4 and it is enabled by default.
Anyway this ticket is addressed and fix will be in future versions, most probably in 7.0.5:
