+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
