General Improvements

  • Removed unused query parameters from being appended to shared URLs. 
  • Removed the "Next Up" video playlist messaging on LIVE/DVR streams while casting.

  • Fixed an issue where the playlistItem event triggered three times on playlist item change during live streams. 
  • Fixed an issue with orientation not locking during fullscreen playback on Android Chrome. 
  • Fixed an issue with duplicate/ghost items appearing in the captions submenu when casting on Chromecast. 
  • Fixed an issue where the getDuration value would be infinity for all VOD streams in the playlist if the first item on the playlist was a LIVE stream during casting. 
  • Fixed an issue with the recommendation playlist shelf widget appearing empty if thumbnails failed to load properly. 
  • Fixed an issue where the duration property did not appear for players being generated with the ID+json tag for SEO/search on Android Chrome. 
  • Fixed an issue with VASTXML config not working properly with the VAST ad client.
  • Fixed an issue where the consent string did not pass properly in Freewheel. 
  • Fixed an issue with thumbnails displayed at the end of the playlist item for the playlist/recommendation overlay.
