Change Logs

* Fri Oct 07 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.6.1:
  * Add a camera/microphone indicator in the users list, and hide
    audio-only peers by default.  They can be reenabled in the side menu.
  * Ensure that autolocked groups are locked on creation.  Thanks to
    Michael Ströder.
  * Don't send chat history multiple times.  Thanks to Rémy Nollet.
  * Fix status display for remote (redirected) groups.
* Sat Sep 10 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.6:
  * Version the protocol: the handshake message now contains a version
    number, and the server will warn if it is incorrect.  This will become
    a hard error in the future.
  * Rework the peer-to-peer file transfer protocol.  It now lives in
    protocol.js, which makes it easy to use by third-party clients.
  * Extend the authorization protocol to allow the authorization server to
    request that the client fall back to password authorization.
  * Make it possible to run the web server on a Unix domain socket.
    Thanks to Martin Pépin.
  * Check that a given group exists before redirecting from the landing
    page.  This avoids an unsightly 404 error when the user makes a typo.
  * Publish the group name end websocket endpoint in the group status.
    This avoids hardwirint the server structure in the client.
  * Fix a race condition that could cause chathistory messages to be sent
    before the joined status.
* Sat Jul 23 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5.5:
  * Fixed a longstanding bug with time conversion that would occasionally
    cause us to miscalculate rates and send incorrect sender reports.
    Thanks to lamhai1401.
  * Updated srtp to a version that includes Adrian Cable's optimisations.
    This should yield a 10% to 20% improvement for AES-CTR (but modern
    browsers use GCM).
  * Reworded the Safari warning to be more frightening, since
    screensharing on Safari tends to get stuck.
* Tue Jul 12 2022 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- explicitly require go >= 1.16
* Fri May 06 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5.4:
  * Fix username check when a token is present.
  * Improve the performance of AES in CTR mode.
  * Tweak detection of keyframes with H.264.
* Mon Apr 25 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5.3:
  * Remove a forgotten "replace" that prevented 0.5.2 from compiling
    unless "pion/ice" was downloaded manually.
  * Fix a race condition in the rate estimator.
  * Update pion/ice to a version that handles aggressive nomination; this
    avoids broken connection in some (fairly rare) cases.
* Wed Apr 20 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5.2:
  * Implement audio-video sync in the diskwriter.
  * Fix setting of the keyframe flag in audio samples in diskwriter.
  * Don't use high-quality audio for screenshare by default, obey the
    hqaudio preference in all cases.
  * Maintain user information for oneself, not just other users.
  * Call the onuser callback when a user deletes a stream.
* Fri Mar 25 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5.1:
  * Enable simulcast on Firefox.
  * Fix rate control on Firefox.
  * Fix corruption after packet reordering when saving to disk.
  * Fix the H.264 profile for compatibility with older iPhones.
  * Display a warning when joining a locked group.
  * Add a hook that allows the client to influence the ICE policy.
  * Fix error handling in peer-to-peer file transfer.
* Tue Mar 08 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.5:
  * Implement third-party (token-based) authentication.
  * Implement peer-to-peer file transfer (/sendfile).
  * Add a contextual menu to the users list.
  * Removed the "Broadcast file" entry in the side menu, it is now
    available as a context menu entry and a chat command (/presentfile).
  * Add side-menu options for high-quality audio (Opus at 128kbps) and
    disabling audio preprocessing.
  * Send audio in addition to video when sharing browser tabs.
* Tue Feb 01 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.4.4:
  * Update dependencies.  Pion WebRTC v3.1.19 fixes a bug that could cause
    audio tracks to be discarded under some circumstances.
  * Fix a bug that could cause user statuses (raisehand) to be discarded.
  * Fix incorrect maxRate value in statistics display.
* Thu Jan 27 2022 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.4.3
  * Fix a locking issue that could cause a deadlock when massive numbers
    of clients join at the same time.
  * Add support for displaying raised hands.
  * Update the MIME type for AV1 to track recent browsers.
  * Avoid overflow during rate estimation.
  * More fixes to the disk writer.
* Wed Dec 01 2021 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.4.2:
  * Update the samplebuilder to avoid a crash when a single frame is so
    large that it overflows the buffer.
  * Various other changes that improve the quality of disk recordings.
  * Update dependencies.
* Fri Nov 05 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- adapted AppArmor profile to new config files in 0.4.1
* Fri Nov 05 2021 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.4.1:
  * Create a new file data/config.json with global configuration.
  * Remove data/passwd and the -redirect option with entries in config.json;
    these are incompatible changes.
  * Change the group URL from /group/name to /group/name/, which allows
    using relative links.  The old URL is redirected to the new one.
  * Extend the protocol with the ability to consult the group status before
    joining; this allows using the group's displayName before the user has
    logged in, and will be required for new authorisation schemes.
  * Allow scrolling of the login dialog, useful on small devices.
  * Fixed a typo that prevented the group name from being displayed.
  * Made failed videos more visible.
  * No longer attempt to save passwords in browser JavaScript, it's
    insecure and not very useful.
* Mon Sep 06 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- avoid switching off IPv6
* Sun Sep 05 2021 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.4:
  * Implemented simulcast.
  * Implemented scalable video coding (SVC) for VP8 and VP9.
  * Preliminary support for the AV1 codec.
  * Fixed the profile announced for VP9.
  * Reworked the disk writer, which should no longer cause corruption
    after packet loss.
  * Added support for recording H.264 tracks.
  * Reworked the signalling protocol, it is now possible to request
    different tracks for distinct streams, and there are provisions to
    carry user permissions and statuses; this is not yet used by the user
    interface.
  * Reworked internal signalling; this will hopefully fix issues with
    losing tracks under load.
  * Added an option to limit the range of UDP ports used by the server.
  * Added a close button in every locally-generated video; this allows
    closing individual screen shares and simplifies the UI by not creating
    close buttons in the top bar.
  * The server will now attempt to increase the file descriptor limit at
    startup.
  * Stats are now exported as JSON and formatted on the client side; the
    stats URL is now /stats.html rather than just /stats.
* Mon Jun 07 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- removed madvise from SystemCallFilter=
* Wed May 12 2021 Michael Ströder <michael@stroeder.com>
- Update to version 0.3.5:
  * Fixed another bug in the loss estimator.
  * Fixed the list of SSRCs sent in REMB packets.  This doesn't seem to
    have any measurable effect.
  * Removed some obsolete code that caused clients to be kicked out when
    they lost the Present permission.
* Tue Apr 27 2021 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.3.4:
  * Fixed a bug in the loss estimator.  We will now reduce the rate more
    aggressively when there is loss in the client->serer direction.
  * Fixed display of the chat on some devices.
  * Exported the group.Description data structure for the sake of external
    configuration tools.
* Fri Apr 16 2021 michael@stroeder.com
- Update to version 0.3.3:
  * Fixed an off-by-one error that could occasionally lead to a server
    crash.
  * Attempt to negotiate stereo Opus audio.
