Release notes

Breaking change

• Breaking change (JITPlayer):
  • property player.api.reportedQuality has been removed. User player.api.getStatus().quality instead.
  • refactored VideoFile object passed to player.api.loadVideoFile(). Properties jit.widthPx and jit.heightPx are replaced with jit.resolution
• Breaking change (TimedTextPlugin):
  • getSubtitleTimelineMarkers now returns marker intervals as start frame inclusive and end frame exclusive, i.e. [start, end). This is the format that the AP Timeline component expects. Before this change the intervals were end frame inclusive, i.e. [start, end]. The recommended approach to showing the subtitle markers as end frame inclusive is to toggle the endFrameInclusive property on the timeline metadata component (ApTimelineMetadata) instead.
