New Features
The Editor now supports Portrait Mode! See Appendix 1
Players now provide information on how to create a new account. This also lets new customers start a 30 day trial.
The Color Picker remembers recently used colors.
The Color Picker accepts HEX inputs now.
Added Filter capabilities to the Power BI widget. This lets a customer change parameters for the filter.
Added the optional ability to automatically Publish a Playlist when it is saved. See Appendix 2
Added "toast" messages to inform a customer of an action that just occurred, like publishing a playlist. ("Toast" messages are short messages that disappear quickly.)
Updated the RSS Widget to show images when the RSS feed uses a newer style of showing images.
More user experience improvements.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue with circular references in the database. This would lead to a server locking up.
The YouTube widget is smarter about playing/not playing audio immediately.
The player cleans up old "ghost" processes to release CPU usage back to the Breeze Player.
During file uploads, the properties panel was automatically hiding. That's no longer the case.
Fixed some opacity issues in our color selectors.
Minor bug fixes.
Removed Features
None.
Compatibility Changes
Old Linux players (running versions older than Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) will no longer work. Support for these older players ended many years ago, but we still have some customers using them. To use the features and bug fixes available in this release and future releases, please update to our modern players and use our Breeze subscription plan with includes a perpetual hardware warranty.
RTP/RTSP/UDP streaming is being replaced by HLS streaming. HLS streaming is already available for use in Breeze. RTP/RTSP/UDP streaming is still available, but is a deprecated feature (third notice).
Video capture (e.g. via BlackMagic cards) will need to be handled by an external device later this year (third notice). Check back for more information and solutions.
