    Wayfarer 5.5 is now available!

    - Wayfarer will now auto-update on quit when using the Check for updates functionality
    - Fixed a bug in Downloads window which wouldn't always allow resuming a failed download
    - Enabled mjpeg support in ffmpeg (enables audio playback in JellyFin)
    - Updated cURL

    I *strongly* recommend updating to 5.5 if you're on 5.2-5.4 due to cURL bugs getting fixed.

    Wayfarer 6.0 is now available!

    The WebKit core has again been rebased to the latest stable WebKitGTK tree. But that's not all, 6.0 also brings many UI improvements like Bookmark filtering, improved password management, Youtube playback fixes, additional Altivec acceleration and more.

    To update from 5.5 simply use the Check for Updates menu function. Wayfarer will then download the new build and auto-update on quit. To update from an older version, manually extract all files from wayfarer.lha into your existing installation.

    I am really happy that you don’t stop development of the Wayfarer. Results of your work is really awesome.

    Fun fact. Several days ago I noticed that I was programming game for MorphOS in Xcode14 on modern MacBookPro and looking for something regarding C++ in Wayfarer on my PowerBookG4. :) :) I think it shows that Wayfarer is really useful and in my tasks is really adult browser. :)

    Thank you!

    Thanks for the update! I have installed 5.5 on my Peg2 recently and will update to 6.0 today :)
    Any chance we get some JIT optimization? Scrolling is pretty sluggish too compared to OWB

    Keep up the good work!

    Hey, I face a minor issue. I opened Wayfarer 5.5, auto-found new version and hit "Update". After finishing downloading lha update, I got an error "couldn't extract pack" (or something similar). Closed the browser, reboot, opened it again, went to https://wayfarer.icu/, download version 6.0, closed the browser, extracted manually and overwritten the contents of previous version. Now, Wayfarer (ver 6.0) loads up just fine but when I close the browser I get the same error and have to click "Cancel". I can see on browser's background splash screen that it tries to update itself but if I click "Check for Updates", I get the message that I am using the most recent one.

    @Cool_amigaN

    Delete update.lha from Wayfarer's directory. I'll see if I can improve upon the update process.

    That's so vague that I have no idea what to do with this information. If AHI is failing then I suggest you check your AHI configuration.

    @jacadcaps I can confirm the error as well. Steps to reporduce:
    1. Open youtube.com
    2. Click on a video to watch
    3. While the page loads, a WkWebView dialog requester opens up saying: AHI audio.device failed.
    4. Page continues loading but no audio

    Sometimes, clearing cache and restarting Wayfarer helps. I also noticed that the error appears on most videos but some don't get this error.

    I haven't experienced this behaviour with WF 5.x, this is new to WF 6.0.

    My config:
    PMAC 11,2 G5 Quad 2,5
    2 GB RAM
    X1950
    TP-Link RTL8168-based network card
    MOS 3.18

    It seems I managed to resolve this one.

    Delete the whole Wayfarer directory and unpack the archive. Re-set the defaults for youtube.com and it should work.

    It seems the auto-update function messed something up when updating from 5.5. to 6.0 and the clean install resolved it.

    You need to set Music Unit to Unit 0 in Audio settings.

    Also got that AHI error on a fresh install, but fixed with Music unit set to 0 indeed :) Sometimes i have seen the WkWebView not being able to open screen 1920 x 1080 when clicking a video for fullscreen, but i will get full error if i see it again :)

    I think it would be the best to make Wayfarer to use Unit 0 instead of using Music Unit. I don't think that many people are using Wayfarer as a hifi-player that would need an exclusive access to the audio hardware. In the most cases users would like to be able to output audio from the browser simultaneously with other programs in a non-blocking way... it's a bit wrong way to force users to change their audio settings for this.
