OvenMediaEngine​

[Compatibility]​

  • Compatible with dependencies installed via prerequisites.sh in version 0.19.1 or later.
  • Compatible with the Server.xml configuration format used in version 0.12.6 or later.
  • Compatible with Origin and Edge versions 0.18.0.0 or later.

[Added]​

  • Added an option (default: false) to the WebRTC Provider. This allows OvenMediaEngine to start playback immediately for the WHIP input without waiting for RTCP.
  • Added forwardData option (default: false) to <Item> in ScheduledChannel . When set to true, data from the live input is forwarded through the ScheduledChannel.
  • Added Transport-cc support to WebRTC Bandwidth Estimation, enabling more precise automatic switching in WebRTC ABR.
  • Added max_fps option to OvenCapabilities in WHIP and added a max_fps field to Stream Info.

[Fixed]​

  • Fixed an issue where VP8 simulcast did not work correctly.
  • Fixed an issue where the OVT Publisher attempted to register an RTSP URL again in Redis when it was already pulled from OriginMapStore.
  • Fixed an issue where duplicate frames during WebRTC (WHIP) streaming triggered alerts.
  • Fixed an intermittent crash when streams were rapidly created and deleted.
  • Fixed an issue where SRT connections could fail under certain conditions.
  • Fixed an issue where avgThroughputIn and avgThroughputOut in GET v1/stats/current/ could be overestimated.
  • Fixed LL-HLS so that at least one audio track is always configured with DEFAULT=YES and AUTOSELECT=YES.
  • Fixed an issue where generating the default LL-HLS playlist could fail when receiving WHIP input.
  • Fixed a potential crash when an AAC track with a corrupted audio sample rate (0) is received.
  • Fixed an intermittent crash that occurred during the simultaneous start and stop of recording API requests.
  • Fixed an issue where a specific GPU could not be selected when using multiple GPUs on a cloud instance.
  • Fixed a memory leak on stream deletion when DelayBufferTimeMs was configured.
  • Fixed a crash issue occurring when publishing starts simultaneously with OvenMediaEngine startup, while Alert is active.
  • Fixed internal queue alerts to be grouped by source URI before sending.
  • Fixed a crash when the input stream ends during repeated push connection failures.

[Changed]​

  • The <Subtitle> configuration has been moved from <Application><OutputProfiles><MediaOptions><Subtitles> to <Application><Subtitles>.
  • Updated the GET Stream API so that outputs[] information is returned for streams pulled via OVT.
    Updated to support hardware acceleration (Transcoding, Speech-to-Text) with NVIDIA Driver 535+ and CUDA 12.0+

[Improved]​

  • Improved the accuracy of framerate and keyFrameInterval calculations.
  • Improved the SkipFrames configuration and enhanced related logging.
  • Improved an issue where shutdown could take longer than expected.
  • Improved compatibility between OvenMediaEngine and WHIP simulcast in OBS 32.1.0.
  • Improved LL-HLS playback from OvenMediaEngine to address abnormal playback caused by compatibility issues with Shaka Player.
  • Improved the algorithm so that SkipFrames auto-tuning is not affected by input jitter.

Web Console​

[Fixed]​

  • Fixed an issue where the stream list was not displayed when the license key was set via environment variables.

[Improved]​

  • Improved Web Console support for OvenMediaEngine running in Edge mode.
  • Improved support for PNG and WebP thumbnail formats in the stream list.
  • Improved stream name validation to allow only safe characters when creating Managed Stream, Pull Stream, Scheduled Channel, and Multiplex Channel.

Delivery​

[Fixed]​

  • Added a feature to upload recorded live streams to Bunny Stream.
