27.4.0 (2017-07-12)

This is a major update to straighten out most of the media streamingissues, as well as adding the necessary enhancements, bugfixes andsecurity fixes to the browser.
Liste der Änderungen:
  • Completely re-worked the Media Source Extensions code tomake it spec compliant, and asynchronous as per specification for MSEwith MP4. This should fix playback problems on YouTube, Twitch, Vimeoand other sites that previously had some issues. A massive thank you toTravis for his tireless work on making this happen!
    Please note that MSE+WebM (disabled by default) is not using this newcode yet (planned for the next release), and as such there is atemporary set of things to keep in mind if you don't use defaultsettings:
    • If you have previously enabled MSE+WebM, this settingwill be reset when you update to avoid conflicting settings with theupdated MSE code.
    • We've added an extra setting in Options to disable theupdated MSE code (asynchronous use) in case you need to use WebM or areotherwise having issues with the updated code (please let us know inthat case).
    • Once again, the MSE+WebM and Asynchronous MSE use arecurrently mutually exclusive. You can have one or the other, not both,until we sort out the code for WebM. To enable MSE+WebM you will firsthave to disable Asynchronouse MSE in settings (otherwise the WebMsetting will be greyed out and disabled).
