Tubular 0.9.8 has been released, and is available for download through the usual means (launch Tubular, and select “Check for Updates” from the Tubular menu). This release is critical if you’re using the Safari 3 beta, as that update caused Tubular to crash whenever you started downloading a video (whether to play it or to convert it to the iPod). If you’re running Safari 3, this version should alleviate these problems.
We’re also very close to our first public beta. We’ll be rolling it over to 1.0 public beta 1 in the next release (unless there are any major crashing bugs to be found, in which case there will be another minor release). We will also have a system in place for registration, so there will be some limitations for unregistered users. Stay tuned.
