v0.4.2.6

improvement

• Expose liveSlidingMain() & liveSlidingAltAudio() in HLS.as (#385)
• flashlsOSMF : in case playback is complete and user seeks, restart playback automatically if needed (#374)

v0.4.2.5

improvement

• introduce hls.startLoad() :
  • this allows to asynchronously set startLevel and start quality level loading, whereas previously start quality level loading it was triggered automatically from MANIFEST_PARSED event.
    introduce HLSSettings.autoStartLoad (default true to keep existing behaviour as default) to control this behaviour.

bugfixes

• FragmentLoader : reset _levelNext on seek() so that level switching happens faster, in case hls.currentLevel is triggered while a PTS analysis is in progress

bugfixes

• chromeless : fix permalink metrics page and wrong fragment playing duration in case of seeking

v0.4.2.2

improvements

• implement retry mechanism for main manifest (#312)
• enable hardware video decoder by default

bugfixes

• fix bugs around emergency switch down on bw drop (#342)
• correctly handle audio-only/video-only streams with broken PMT signalling (#362)
• AAC/MP3 demuxer:limit SYNC WORD search window to 100 bytes after ID3 tags to avoid false positive and parsing MP3 with AAC demuxer (#363)
• flashlsOSMF: Fix HLSError to OSMF SECURITY_ERROR mapping (#367)
• TSDemuxer: don't push video tags if keyframe not found yet. this should reduce the nb of video artifacts on level switch with streams with fragments not starting with keyframes (#347)

v0.4.1.2

improvement

• #213 : monitor FPS drop when player is not throttling.
  • throttling determined thanks to flash.events.ThrottleEvent, available with FP >= 11.2
  • support level capping upon FPS drop detection.
  • support smooth autolevel switch down upon FPS drop detection
• when live fragment loading stalls, don't flush buffer and seek ASAP, wait for current buffer to be drained before flushing/seeking.

API changes

• HLSEvent.STAGE_SET - triggered when Stage object has been attached to hls instance
• HLSEvent.FPS_DROP - triggered when FPS drop in last monitoring period is higher than given threshold
• HLSEvent.FPS_DROP_LEVEL_CAPPING - triggered when FPS drop triggers auto level capping
• HLSEvent.FPS_DROP_SMOOTH_LEVEL_SWITCH - triggered when FPS drop triggers a smooth auto level down switching

• HLSEvent.ID3_UPDATED - switch ID3 data from Hex to Base64.

• JSURLStream: on load abortion, stop Base64 decoding timer to ensure that no data will be pushed to FragmentLoader.
• remove forced level capping on new manifest load
• avoid spurious logs and PMT reparsing with multiple audio streams
