chessconnet beta 4.0

No worries under chesscom, the game is great, it even becomes easy to play chess960 against a computer. Congratulations for the integration!!
Under lichess, I have 2 tokens for 2 different users, the first is recognized in the 1st field but the second remains with "token verification". if I reverse it is the same for the second field.
otherwise no problems in the game.
Good evening everyone.

Thank you @lpavchess for testing. So, basically you are saying that the second token field is not working? No matter what token? That's strange, it does work here.

I found a solution.
offline lichess, I integrated the 2 tokens and it works!

I am happy to announce that I started a cooperation with ChessUp. So, the plan is to offer support for the ChessUp board with the next version.

4.1.0beta is out which includes support for ChessUp. This is again not too well tested, yet. So, better don't play any important games with this.

I am planning on releasing version 4 in early August. That'll be the day when Chessconnect becomes "official". 🥳🥳🥳

Since this seems to cause some confusion: since 4.0 it is no longer required (or possible) to enter the username for your lichess tokens. You just need to tnter your token and press the Tab key. The username will then be displayed automatically.

I thought it would be easier that way.

Hi Joern I visit your website and study the compability chart.

I think it will be a benefit ,if you split in Bluetooth and Bluetooth LE. In the actual form it is not clear which combination really works.

Good idea, Dirk! Will do.

I just released version 4.2.0beta. This version gives us the choice which voice to use for move announcements. I found that on some platforms the default voice is not the most pleasent one.

My plan is to do a testing marathon over the weekend and if that goes well release 4.2 as the new stable version after that.

4.2.1beta is out fixing a possible delay in move announcements on some platforms.

Testing marathon has begun and is looking good so far.

@joernupbde

Beta v4.2.0 is very stable with the Tabutronic, everything's workin' okay, I'll be testing the new v4.2.1 out and eventually I'll let you know but so far so good. Nice work indeed !

P.S. latency: 500ms - buffer FIFO disabled in Silicon Labs controller driver

Great work @Kromok2! I'll mark Tabutronic as "working" then.

I also have a "TABUTRONIC Sentio 45 mm square " and everything works more than perfectly for me as well. We can express our thanks and respect for your efforts and many more similar projects in the future. My wish is that this application would also work as a stand-alone application in android. Thank you

Great @KAVFVAR! Sentio is working, too, then. And standalone for Android is definitely coming.

Did anyone test the beta with Chessnut, Millennium, DGT Pegasus, or iChessOne?

@joernupbde have there been any fixes/improvements in 4.x with regards to DGT/Chessnut integration? I have experienced issues with both in 3.x when using Bluetooth and would be happy to test the beta.
I also have an iChessOne but haven't yet tried that with ChessConnect, but would be happy to give it a whirl.

Jörn, I will test Chessnut, Millenium eOne and Pegasus today (may be later in the day), and post if no one report back in when finished.

chessconnet beta 0.4.2.0

No problems under chesscom in several friendly games and even 2 games in chess960 against bots, 
same under lichess with 10+5 stakes games.. and yes not even afraid given the quality of the beta!!
For interesting voice options...now you will have to choose .
Congratulations Jörn .
have a nice day everyone

Thank you all for tesing. That saves me a lot of time and I can start sooner with adding new features.

Before I bought "TABUTRONIC Sentio" I had a DGT Pegasus and I still have it, so I was curious how it works with "Chessconnect". I played a few games on LiChess and on Chess.Com and I can only confirm that the application "Chessconect" also works perfectly. The difference is, of course, that DGT Pegasus works via buetooth, but as I said, everything works flawlessly. Hello everyone and thanks again for this really great app.
