If the download option is carried out, as additional complements, along
with the download, a pdf with the instructions can come, after all, a few
lines are enough to explain the simple process. I could make it in English
and Spanish. It is something that can be explained in one sentence.

> 1. *OpenExr* has been upgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.4.1 (Andrew notification
> and assistance).
> 2. *OpenCV* upgrade for more recent distros from 3.4.1 to 4.2. Older O/S
> still at 3.4.1 +(Andrew patch).
> 3. A major *change to ID based references for plugins *to resolve a code
> flaw in copying was made.
> 4. *Usability Improvements*:
>     To make it easy for moving to the *next/previous auto *like fade or
> speed, added Alt-a/Ctrl-a
>        shortcuts and in keeping with keyframes, Alt-Shift-A and
> Ctrl-Alt-Shift-A (Deim31 noted).
>     Slider bars have been added to the *Projector and Camera *compositor
> menus for ease of use along

> are updated accordingly such as
>        the zoom bar ranges and the auto xyz lines (Dan feature request).
>     Another minor change to the *shortcut for “Delete last track” *from
> the lower case letter “d” to Ctrl-
>        Shift-D and finally to just Ctrl-d to make it less dangerous but at
> the same time still not too hard to
>        get to (IgorB suggestion for refinement).
>     Several *new ShapeWipe transitions* created by Rafa + others
> available to load locally.
>     The tips file and po file for *Spanish* were improved once again by
> RafaMar.
>     *Videoscope* changes (there will be a couple of more changes next
> month):
>         Added capability via an icon on the Compositor and Viewer windows
> to easily start up the scope
>            (BT #71 of Andrea and more recent Dan email).  Changes include
> the following:
>         Replaced menu buttons with a “Scopes” pulldown which is easier to
> understand.
>         Added a “Smooth” button for the purpose of aesthetics for not
> showing black line missing data.
>         Scope values show up without having to play first when enabled or
> when the window is resized.
>         Slider bars with reset button to modify the value for the Waveform
> and Vectorscope displays.
>         Additional choice for the waveform of “Waveform ply” added.
>         Note that it may run better with X11 as the video driver instead
> of OpenGl.
>     *Mixer window* changes:
>         - added a “Tile mixers” option easily accessible in the window
> which was previously only
>           available in the Window→Mixers pulldown.
>        - “Zoom” has been hooked up (Dan email report).
>        - there is now a “Playable” option for each window to save cpu
> usage time (Dan request).
>      *Zoom... *in the Compositor, Viewer, and Mixer windows has been
> renamed to Resize Window.
>      The compositor button bar has had “Generate Keyframes...” and
> “Keyframe Spanning” buttons
>         removed to make room for the Videoscope button.
>      Patches for render options have been worked by Andrew to include:
>         EXR - choices of B44, B44A, DWAA, DWAB
>         PNG - now has added choices in the render video wrench to include
> Compression level 0-9 and
>                    Depth of either 8 or 16 bits.
>         TIFF - new choices of LZW, LZWMA, Deflate.  Tiff now allows for
> future webp use.
>      New plugin “boxblur” to blur horizontal, vertical, and with power.
> Very fast; based on ffmpeg’s.
> 5. *Bugs/Issues fixed:*
>   Format /muxer render new button was fixed as it was not retaining
> settings correctly.
>   Fix for deadlock in Compositor when double click on the indicator bar
> and trying to drag after that +
>      another deadlock fixed when using [ and ] and labels  (Andrew noted
> and worked to reproduce).
>   Vaapi software fallback fix added so that when non-supported models,
> like 66, are not supported, the
>     software will automatically be in use instead (Jacek BT #383).
>   A few tweaks for BSD builds, bld_prepare script added libtool,
> shortcuts.html and plugin.opts.
>   Reverted h264_nvenc and h265_nvenc vaapi render options file back to
