3.0.4 Released

We are pleased to announce our 4th patch for the 3.0 version of Xibo. The codename for this version is “Finlay”. Check out our release announcement and our What’s New in Xibo v3 blogs for more details about the updated features.

Below you will find all the release notes and download links for this latest and greatest version of the Xibo CMS.

15P/Finlay is a periodic comet with an orbital period of 6.51a (Julian years). William Henry Finlay (Royal Observatory, Cape of Good Hope, South Africa) discovered the comet on September 26, 1886. It's last closest approach to the sun was in July 2021.

This release fixes 39 issues.

Download

Please use the links below to download this release:

• Xibo for Docker - Linux / Windows
• Xibo for Apache/Nginx / WAMP/IIS

We have new v3 Android and Windows players available, with the other players functioning in a backwards compatible mode.

The minimum version of Xibo for webOS that will function with a v3 CMS is v2 R206.

The minimum version of Xibo for Tizen that will function with a v3 CMS is v2 R202.

At the time of writing these are the latest players:

• Xibo for Windows
• Xibo for Android
• Xibo for webOS
• Xibo for Linux
• Xibo for Tizen

v2 players will connect to a v3 CMS, but please be aware that new v3 features will not be supported.

1.8 players will also function but please be aware that v2/v3 features will not be supported.

We recommend using player software of the same version as your CMS.

On-premise licensing

If you use any of our commercial players (Android, webOS or Tizen) and have taken advantage of on-premise licensing, please update your on-premise licensing module at the same time as you upgrade your CMS.

The new module can be downloaded from My Products.
