Volirium P1: Update 19.1

20 August, 2020

Volirium have released software version 19.1 for the Volirium P1.

Version 19.0 was released to beta testers at the end of July 2020. It was a major update including a move to a Linux operating system which Volirium say improved stability and performance.

Also in the release:

New Features

  • Airspace warnings remain on screen for a configurable duration
  • Additional language: Portuguese

Improvements

  • Almost all laptops accept the USB connection now. We still have some problems with some Microsoft Surface models, but there is a work-around. Contact us if you need more information.
  • Next turnpoint selector in next turnpoint indicator WIP: Accept touch screen input
  • Near-thermal-tone only when moving
  • More pronounced sounds when reaching turnpoint
  • Time zone database update
  • Improve race route optimization
  • Improve WiFi detection: Ignore updates when actual network is missing

Fixed bugs

  • Shutdown screen does not close previously open entry boxes
  • WIP for direction always gives unit in degree
  • “W” not translated in French
  • Special characters in pilot names lead to problems (and crashes) in IGC and KMZ files.
  • Some airspace categories are not parsed.
  • Wind direction in degree gives negative values

A small bug-fix release, v19.1, followed in August 2020. “This version fixes a bug in 19.0 where in some cases, the synchronisation between internal and external memory failed, resulting in loss of IGC and/or Google Earth files.”
