Nuvola 3.1.2

The milestone 3.1.2 was released on March 26, 2017 (123 commit since the 3.1.1 milestone).

New Features

Nuvola Player was renamed to Nuvola Apps as non-media player apps (Google Calendar) were enabled and should be fully supported in the 4.0 release.
Nuvola Apps are distributed as cross-distribution flatpak builds. There have been a lot of changes under the hood to support this transition.
The nuvolaplayer3 and nuvolaplayer3ctl commands are deprecated in favor of nuvola and nuvolactl.
WebApp scripts provide own desktop files so the unnecessary create/delete desktop launchers actions were removed.

Enhanced support of HTML5 Audio and Media Source Extension (MSE), which is currently enabled only in the BBC iPlayer script with a custom WebKitGTK+ build.
Album art is downloaded with WebKit's NetworkProcess to access images that are otherwise restricted. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#76
Preferences dialog: Components tab was renamed to Features as it is more user-friendly.

Inter-process communication has been reworked for greater flexibility as required by the HTTP Remote Control feature.
Nuvola and individual apps are DBus-activatable.
The unique name has been changed to eu.tiliado.Nuvola and most of the resources (e.g. icons) use this name.
AppData/AppStream metadata have been updated.
The build script now honors the VAPIDIR env variable.
Added a script to set up Nuvola CDK environment (setup_nuvolacdk.sh).

"Too many flash plugins" false positives. Resolve symlinks and track final paths not to count duplicates. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#159
Repeated Runner: prefix in debugging output. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#265
Disable LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE workaround with WebKitGTK 2.14+ to fix performance issues. Issue: tiliado/nuvolaplayer#260
