+Nageru and Futatabi 2.0.2, September 3rd, 2021
+
+  - Fix issues with various upstream software:
+    DeckLink 11.7 (and newer) drivers, FFmpeg 4.4, newer CEF.
+
+  - Add a --no-transcode-video flag to Kaeru.
+    
+    This is useful primarily if you want Kaeru to rewrap the stream into
+    Metacube (for Cubemap) and do nothing else with it. Only H.264
+    is supported for now, since everything else assumes that.
+
+
+Nageru and Futatabi 2.0.1, July 9th, 2020
+
+  - Upgrade DeckLink SDK to 10.11.4.
+
+  - Various bugfixes.
+
+
+Nageru and Futatabi 2.0.0, June 2nd, 2020
+
+  - Native support for SRT inputs; by default, Nageru will listen
+    for incoming connections on port 9710 and treat them as hotplugged
+    cameras. They do not need any special handling in the theme,
+    and can pick up e.g. the SRT stream ID to be used in the UI.
+    They generally have fewer limitations than using an srt:// URL
+    on an FFmpeg capture; e.g., there is no forced scaling, and they
+    can be used as master clock (although this is not generally
+    recommended).
+
+    For license reaseons, please be sure that libsrt does not link to
+    OpenSSL when building Nageru.
+
+  - You do no longer need to set up a fixed amount of capture cards
+    at startup; by default, at least two will be created for you
+    (fake capture cards) as before, but if you have more, or hotplug
+    more, more slots will be automatically available, and will go
+    away (not take up any resources like fake capture cards do)
+    when unplugged. If you wish to artificially limit the maximum
+    number of cards like before, you can use the new switch
+    --max-num-cards.
+
+  - MJPEG handling now includes 4:2:0 support in both Nageru and
+    Futatabi, as SRT inputs are often 4:2:0 and not 4:2:2.
+
+  - FFmpeg capture cards (including SRT cards) now use VA-API
+    hardware acceleration for decoding whenever available.
+
+
+Nageru and Futatabi 1.9.3, April 12th, 2020
+
+  - Support (video-only) V4L2 output. The intended use case is output into
+    v4l2loopback to get into videoconferencing or the likes:
+
+     sudo apt install v4l2loopback-dkms
+     sudo modprobe v4l2loopback video_nr=2 card_label='Nageru loopback' max_width=1280 max_height=720 exclusive_caps=1
+     nageru --v4l-output /dev/video2
+
+   Start Nageru before any readers.
+
+
+Nageru and Futatabi 1.9.2, March 29th, 2020
+
+  - Support handling white balance directly in Nageru, without themes
+    manually inserting a WhiteBalanceEffect or handling set_wb().
+    To use it, call scene:add_white_balance() instead of
+    scene:add_effect(WhiteBalanceEffect.new()). If using this functionality,
+    white balance will be properly propagated to the MJPEG feed and
+    through Futatabi, so that replays get the correct white balance.
+    Futatabi's UI will still be uncorrected, though.
+
+  - Make it possible to siphon out a single MJPEG stream, for remote
+    debugging, single-camera recording, single-camera streaming via
+    Kaeru or probably other things. The URL for this is /feeds/N.mp4
+    where N is the card index (starting from zero).
+
+  - The theme can now access some audio settings; it can get (not set)
+    number of buses and names, get/set fader volume, get/set mute,
+    and get/set EQ parameters.
+
+  - In Futatabi, it is now possible to set custom source labels, with
+    the parameter --source-label NUM:LABEL (or -l NUM:LABEL).
+
+  - When the playback speed changes in Futatabi, ease into the new speed.
+    The easing period is nominally 200 ms, but it will be automatically
+    shortened or lengthened (up to as much as two seconds in extreme
+    cases, especially involving very slight speed change) if this
+    helps getting back into a cadence of hitting the original frames.
+    This can mean significant performance improvements when ramping
+    from higher speeds back into 100%.
+
+  - Updates for newer versions of CEF (tested with Chrome 80).
+
+  - Various bugfixes and performance improvements.
+
+
+Nageru and Futatabi 1.9.1, November 17th, 2019
+
+  - Support disabling optional effects if a given other effect is _enabled_
+    (typically for mutually exclusive effects).
+    
+  - Make it possible for the theme to override the status line, by declaring
+    a function format_status_line() in the theme. Inspired by a C++ patch by
+    Alex Thomazo in the Breizhcamp repository.
+
+  - Various bugfixes.
+
+
 Nageru and Futatabi 1.9.0, July 20th, 2019
 
   - Significant reworking of the theme engine: Chains (now called scenes)
