(upbeat music)
- [Narrator] So along with today's launch
of the new eight gig Raspberry Pi 4,
we've also updated the Raspberry Pi OS.
It's now called the Raspberry Pi OS,
So forget Raspbian remove it from your mental dictionary.
It's now Raspberry Pi OS.
And we thought it'd be cool to just come on here,
and just do a video and show you some of the changes
that we've made.
So first things first, if you come up to the home icon
in the top left hand corner and click help,
you'll see this brand new application here called bookshelf.
And for some of you that may not know,
our Raspberry Pi Press is the publishing arm
of Raspberry Pi.
And that's where we publish magazines such as the MagPi,
HackSpace magazine, Wireframe, Custom PC,
Digital SLR photography, and also various books as well.
And for the MagPi, for HackSpace magazine,
and for Wireframe, we also released freed PDFs
on the day of publication.
So the day that the magazine goes live,
and you can buy it in your local news agents,
or on the Raspberry Pi Press website,
you can also come along to any of the websites
for those magazines and download the PDF for free,
which is really, really cool.
So we thought it'd be fun to create this Bookshelf,
where we collect together all the PDFs,
update them as they change, as new ones come out,
and you can come on in and you can download them
and read them on your Raspberry Pi.
So you see, we've got MagPi, HackSpace magazine,
Wireframe magazine.
And under Books here, I've already downloaded one,
so I can show you what they look like.
So we have this little cloud icon here,
and that means that that hasn't been downloaded yet.
So that's waiting for you to download from the cloud.
See what we did there?
Whereas this one here Code the Classics,
you can see as nice and bright, and that's because
I've already downloaded that PDF to show you.
So all I have to do is just
double click on Code the Classics,
it's gonna open up Chromium, which is what we're using
as the PDF viewer for all of these publication PDFs.
And straight away went into Code the Classics,
which is awesome.
You can have a look through.
Anyone who doesn't know what Code the Classics is,
it's a book we released right at the end of last year,
which we collect together some of our favorite retro games,
and have rewritten our own versions of them.
And provide the code so you can write it yourself,
and you can also hack it yourself.
So you can come through here,
even if you have the book at home,
it's really handy to have this.
You can just reference and not have to
take the book off your shelf,
or if you're in a different place,
remember to bring it with you.
So let's just close that.
So that is the Bookshelf app,
and I'm just going to close a Bookshelf app.
The second addition that we have put
onto the Raspberry Pi OS,
is if you go down to Preferences and Recommended Software,
and for anyone who hasn't seen
the Recommended Software Application yet,
this is where we put our Recommended Software.
So this is software that we think you'll really enjoy
as a Raspberry Pi user.
But we're not going to automatically install it
onto the Raspberry Pi for you.
You can come in, and you can pick what you'd like
to have on your Raspberry Pi.
And actually if you go into games,
you'll see those Code the Classics games here
that you can download and play.
But we're gonna be going to Universal Access.
And here, anyone who's been in here previously,
will see that on our last update,
we included Orca the Screen Reader onto a Raspberry Pi.
And now this time around, we've added the Magnifier.
So if we just click here, and we're going to click OK,
and that is going to install it onto our Raspberry Pi.
Nice and simple.
Once it's done, it's going to ask us to reboot.
So I'm going to click Yes.
And I'll see you in a second.
(mouse clicking)
(classic music)
And we're back.
And now you can see in the top right-hand corner,
we have this little Magnifier icon.
When I click it, we now have a magnifier.
And you can use that across applications
on the Raspberry Pi.
So if you're editing texts, if you're using Terminal,
anything at all, you can get your Magnifier out.
Click again, it'll disappear.
If we right-click on it, you can see Magnify Settings.
And when I go in here,
I can change it from a circle to a rectangle,
I can change the width and height,
and I can also change the zoom.
So how much I'd like it to zoom in.
So let's click on that again, boom.
I mean, that might be a bit too close.
So the last change that we've made,
is actually an audio change.
So previously on Raspberry Pis, we treated
both the HDMI internal audio output,
and the headphone jack output as one single device.
And now what we've done is we've split it.
So the HDMI and the audio jack,
and are two separate devices
as far as the Raspberry Pi's concerned.
And when you go up here to your volume,
right-click and you'll see AV jack and the HDMI.
So you can now select between the two.
So to update your current version of the Raspberry OS,
to the latest one, you just need to go into Terminal.
We're going to type two things in,
first, sudo apt update, hit return on that.
And once that finishes,
we're then gonna type, sudo apt full-upgrade.
Hit return, or run through the upgrades,
as long as you're connected to the internet.
And then when that's done, it's gonna ask you to reboot.
And once you've rebooted, you'll be in the new OS.
So if you have any questions at all,
leave them in the comments and we will answer them for you.
And yeah, have a great time with the new Raspberry Pi OS.
And we will see you soon.
