(They earlier assumed + we could control B-frame settings on the fly, which we cannot with + threaded lookahead.) Also support x264 >= 153, which can support + multiple bit depths in the same library. + + - Default to SDI inputs instead of HDMI. + + - Add a mode to run in full screen (--fullscreen). Adapted from a patch + by Yoann Dubreuil. + + - Add support for lift/gamma/gain in the theme. Patch by Alexandre Thomazo. + + +Nageru 1.7.3, May 22nd, 2018 + + - When using multichannel audio, add a control for adjusting the + stereo width (from normal stereo to mono, all the way to + inverted stereo). + + - Removed --http-coarse-timebase (it is now always on). + + - Various bugfixes. + + +Nageru 1.7.2, April 28th, 2018 + + - Several improvements to video (FFmpeg) inputs: You can now use + them as audio sources, you can right-click on video channels + to change URL/filename on-the-fly, themes can ask for forced + disconnection (useful for network sources that are hanging), + and various other improvements. Be aware that the audio support + may still be somewhat rough, as A/V sync of arbitrary video + playout is a hard problem. + + - The included themes have been fixed to properly make the returned + chain preparation functions independent of global state (e.g. if + the white balance for a channel was changed before the frame was + actually rendered). If you are using a custom theme, you may want + to apply similar fixes to it. + + - In Metacube stream output, mark each keyframe with a pts metadata + block. This allows Cubemap 1.4.0 or newer to serve fMP4 fragments + for HLS from Nageru's output, without any further remuxing or + transcoding. + + - If needed, Nageru will now automatically try to autodetect a + usable --va-display parameter by probing all DRM nodes for H.264 + encoders. This removes the need to set --va-display in almost all + cases, and also removes the dependency on libpci. + + - For GPUs that support querying available memory (in practice only + NVIDIA GPUs at the current time), expose the amount of used/total + GPU memory both on standard output and in the Prometheus metrics + (as well as included Grafana dashboard). + + - The Grafana dashboard now supports heatmaps for the chosen x264 + speedcontrol preset (requires Grafana 5.1 or newer). (There used to + be a heatmap earlier, but it was all broken.) + + - Various bugfixes. + + Nageru 1.7.1, March 26th, 2018 - Various bugfixes, mostly related to HTML and video inputs.
