Version 1.7.27 (2017-03-20)

Important

We have made many improvements for DASH (see below), so please verify that your player is working as expected.

Added:

  • dash: added live time signaling urn:mpeg:dash:utc:http-iso:2014. (#1447)

  • dash: compare Representation timelines and only move them to the AdaptationSet when they are identical. This makes it easier to spot GOP alignment errors.

  • dash: do not output empty AdaptationSets (e.g. empty subtitles).

  • dash: always write @sar (conforming to DVB-DASH specification ETSI TS 103 285).

  • dash: added a trickmode AdaptationSet when the --fixed_gop option is present.

  • dash: moved more common attributes and elements from Representations to AdaptationSet. E.g. @startWithSAP, @mimeType, @maxPlayoutRate, @codingDependency, EssentialProperty.

  • dash: always write AdaptationSet@Role descriptor (conforming to DVB BlueBook A168 and DASH-IF Interoperability Points).

  • dash: the propagating of query parameters has changed. Query parameters passed in the MPD URL are now added as an EssentialProperty with UrlQueryInfo (at the MPD level) and it is up to the player to add them to the Media Segment URLs (new since ISO/IEC 23009-1:2016).

  • packager: added --use_dref_no_subs. (#1444)

  • packager: remove any AUD/SPS/PPS/FILLER when preprocessing AVC1 (conforming to AVC1 specification ISO/IEC 14496-15).

  • libfmp4: added new Dynamic Track selection using count operator to filter expressions.

  • libfmp4: allow for empty media segments (i.e. media segments with a duration but no samples, useful for sparse tracks). (#1553)

Fixed:

  • origin: fixed missing dash fragments caused by timescale conversion. (#1459)

  • packager: fixed --track_role for subtitles (sidecars).

  • dash: fixed formatting of the HEVC constraint flags in the @codecs field.

  • nginx: fixed unintentional request interception by POST handler in proxy_pass context.

  • libfmp4: fixed duplicate namespace prefix in TTML. (#1307)

Version 1.7.2 (2014-11-25)

  • origin: added extended EXT-X-KEY statement in m3u playlists for Marlin (Adding Marlin DRM, #663)

  • capture: try harder when configuring the encoder. The Intel Media SDK returns an error instead of a warning on some SDK versions. In the case of a warning or error we now continue trying more settings.

  • origin: added new playout format --hls.playout=SAMPLE_AES_STREAMINGKEYDELIVERY. This adds signaling for the KEYFORMAT="com.apple.streamingkeydelivery" to the m3u8 playlist.

  • libfmp4: avoid the loading of all the samples when scanning for embedded captions. Only scan the first AVC sample for SEI message.

  • libfmp4: option to combine multiple reads (maxRanges) into a single GET request. currently maxRanges is set to 1 since S3 doesn't support multiple ranges.

  • packager: added support for writing "dref"-ed fragmented MP4.

Note that you will need the package_iis policy as well as the option --progressive_playout. This is only available in Apache since it uses "Transfer-Encoding: Chunked" and also requires a HTTP 1.1 client. HTTP Range requests are not supported. When a range is requested the reponse is a 200 and the complete file is returned.

  • hls: added playready-envelope encryption.

  • dash: added --mpd.profile option for specifying the URN of the "Interoperability Point"

  • hls: tightly pack keyframes in MPEG TS. This fixes the BYTERANGE sometimes being off by the size of a TS packet.

  • hds: do not use @alternate attribute in version 2 manifests when the audio is the "primary rendition".

  • live: fixed purging for archive_segment_length/dvr_window_length greater than 429 seconds in combination of a large timescale (10.000.000).

  • libfmp4: added support for "ttml" in "stsd" as output by Carcon Coder.

  • hls/hds: added support for "avc3".

  • hds: OSMF 2.0 based players crash/stop-responding when SCRIPTDATA is present in the alternate audio track. Do not add onFI messages in alternate audio fragments.

  • package-mpd: added Widevine ("cenc" encryption, plus Widevine signaling).

  • origin: fixed the one sample missing in each audio fragment bug. This happened when using MP4 as source and Smooth Streaming as playout due to a rounding error caused by different source and destination timescales. A possible workaround is to use the option --iss.minimum_fragment_length=N and set N to the GOP duration.

Version 1.7.1 (2014-07-04)

  • origin: added Irdeto SKE DRM support for HLS playout (#449)

  • capture: 404/412 status codes now return exit failure after retrying 3 times.

Version 1.7.0 (2014-05-15)

  • hls: updated ID3 Tags to use sps_rbsp and sei_rbsp

  • mp4split: Changed console output from stdout to stderr (DEBUG build only).

  • Fixed #518 (purging audio timestamps from db). This occured when multiple tracs were posted as a single stream. A possible work-around is to publish audio/video streams separately to the publishing point.

  • libfmp4: moved Smooth Streaming client manifest reader into library.

  • mp4split: Lowered memory requirements when packaging encrypted content.

  • corrected writing of relative URLs with a ":" in the first segment.

  • Do not try and update live server manifest files when they are missing metadata. This may happen with live streams pushed by FFmpeg using -vcodec copy. The @systemBitrate attribute is zero in that case.

  • hls: signal version 2 protocol when IV is used.
