New Features:

• Added logging for continuity counter errors and delays of packets for specific PID from TsDemuxer.
• Introduced NDI interlaced output (30p to 60i conversion).
• Added pass-through support for AIT metadata.
• Rate-control modes for TsMuxer (CBR, VBR, CVBR).
• Enabled running Live Transcoder on systems without NVIDIA NvEnc GPUs.
• Enabled I-frame only encoding for H.264, HEVC, and H.262 (GOP sizes between <1,300>)

Improvements:

• Addressed a crash in SRT network sender that caused connection issues.
• Corrected default NDI clocking mode to framesync.
• Resolved issues with hiding options in Webkit browser sink type selection.
• Workaround implemented for a broken field deinterlacer when the BOTTOM field is first.
• Addressed pipeline stops during auto-reconfiguration due to crashed elements.
• Resolved issues with JXS combined with other output types failing at pipeline start.
• Corrected latency addition fluctuation between -1 and 0.
• Fixed incorrect total bitrate updates during output configuration

Improvements:

• BugFix: Pipeline may not restart if crashed while stopping

• BugFix: Broken UI for the audio dialog when auto reconfiguration is on

Improvements:

• BugFix: Auto reconfiguration triggered while no input data are received

• BugFix: Auto reconfiguration triggered while audio parameters aren't complete

• BugFix: LT-5509: Correctly receive NDI HX

Improvements:

• Log levels up to INFO preserved for console/journal (part of diagnostic package)

Improvements:

• NDI source improvements:

  • PCR based on audio
  • Limit AV diff to [-250-250] ms
  • Limit audio coming too fast
  • Extended logs and small improvements for NDI input

• Show NTP and PTP service status

• BugFix: LT-5470: PTS calculation on framerate conversion UCs

• BugFix: Avoid drops caused by violating latency constraints from NDI source (use only positive PTS offsets)

• BugFix: NDI source getting stuck when scan rate changes

• BugFix: LT-5499, LT-5532: Fix multiple AAC enc/dec PTS related issues

• BugFix: Correct index 503 page for docker deployment

Improvements:

• Total output bitrate setting automatic by default
• LT-5483: Set default logging to journal and limit its size
• BugFix: LT-5520: Missing audio prevents pipeline from autoreconfiguring (output pairs and quad cases)

Improvements:

• BugFix: LT-5527: Move back to older AAC decoder for AAC non-HE to fix decoding RTMP input audio

Improvements:

• BugFix: LT-5520: Missing audio prevents pipeline from autoreconfiguring

New Features

• New TS muxer for larger compatibility and robustness, used as default

• Latency addition option exposed in UI

• Automatic total bitrate when 0 is used

• Video passthrough (with bitrate=0) for any MPEG-TS video

• AAC-HE on input and output, v2 for stereo

• Different clocking mechanisms on NDI input available in UI (free-run, framesync, avsync)

• PSF encoding for h264 and h265

• Show status of SDI genlock in UI

• [experimental] video pass-through for RTMP output

Improvements:

• Improve latency of NVENC h264 workflows when used in LL mode expecting zero B-frames

• Codec selector for pairs and quads mode of autoreconfiguration

• Upgrade to JAVA 21 and Spring Boot to 2.7.18

• Low-complexity framerate conversion modes in settings.ini

New Features

• Downgrade nvEncodeAPI.h to version 11.1.5 (used for H.264 encoding)

• Update nv_codec_headers for FFMpeg to 11.1.5.3 (used for H.265 encoding)
