Full Changelog: v3.0.5...v3.0.6

Version 3.0.5

What's Changes

• Code cleanup and general housekeeping.

Full Changelog: v3.0.4...v3.0.5

Version 3.0.4

What's Changes

• Added warning when attempting to use videoFilter with the copy vcodec.
• Added support for connecting to an MQTT broker with TLS.
• Updated dependencies.

Full Changelog: v3.0.3...v3.0.4

Version 3.0.3

What's Changes

• Updated dependencies.

Note

• Homebridge 1.1.3 is now out. It is highly recommended to upgrade as it should completely resolve the issue that caused live video not to work while snapshots continued to update. Once you upgrade, interfaceName will no longer have any impact. At some point in the future this plugin will drop support for Homebridge 1.1.2 and lower and also remove the interfaceName option.

Version 3.0.2

What's Changes

• Allow = in the URL for HTTP automation for systems that require it. Everything after the = will be ignored.

Full Changelog: v3.0.1...v3.0.2

Version 3.0.1

What's Changes

• Fix: Fixed an issue with inactive camera timeouts that could cause zombie FFmpeg processes.

Full Changelog: v3.0.0...v3.0.1

Version 3.0.0

What's Changes

Breaking Changes

• additionalCommandline has been replaced by encoderOptions to better reflect it's intended use.
• preserveRatio has been removed and is now active as long as the default videoFilter list is active.

Other Changes

• This plugin now includes experimental two-way audio support. Be aware that this feature is likely to be tweaked in the future, and a configuration that works now may need to be altered in the future.
• Better detection of audio and video streams. There should be very few scenarios where mapvideo or mapaudio are needed anymore, as FFmpeg's stream auto-selection is now set up.
• Default videoFilter can be disabled by including none in your comma-delimited list of filters.
• Further reorganization of the config UI.
• Fix: Corrected handling of inactive camera timeouts. You should no longer see timeout messages after cleanly closing a camera stream.
• Fix: Fixed forceMax not applying to resolution in some scenarios.

Full Changelog: v2.5.0...v3.0.0

Version 2.5.0

What's Changes

Breaking Changes

• Horizontal and vertical flip have been removed. If you need these options, pass hflip and/or vflip in videoFilter.

• forceMax has resulted in the removal of minBitrate, as it is now redundant. To replicate the old behavior, set maxBitrate to the bitrate you want to use and set forceMax to true.

• preserveRatio is now a boolean to reduce confusion and support the better handling of that option.

• Other Changes

• forceMax has been added. This will force the use of maxWidth, maxHeight, maxFPS, and maxBitrate when set.

• If maxWidth, maxHeight, or maxFPS are set to 0, the width, height, or framerate of the source will now be used for the output.

• If maxBitrate is set to 0, the bitrate of the encoder will not be limited. I strongly recommend against this, but it is a better option than setting it to 999999 or similar values, as I've seen in some configs.

• Reorganized config UI options.

• Fix: Fix handling of IPv6 connections.

Full Changelog: v2.4.7...v2.5.0

Version 2.4.7

What's Changes

• Changed the way external IP address is determined. This should result in video streams working by default in more setups.

Full Changelog: v2.6.0...v2.4.7

Version 2.4.6

What's Changes

• Fix: Fix MQTT/HTTP automation when unbridge is used.
