Releases: intel/cloud-streaming
v0.4.1
Summary
Release update for v0.4.x series to fix build due to oneVPL rename to libvpl. New github location - https://github.com/intel/libvpl.
Changes
- #74: ics3a/build: fix onevpl component build after rename
Full Changelog: v0.4...v0.4.1
v0.4.0-rc3
Summary
With the future v0.4 release we will be adding some new features to Intel Cloud Streaming for Android OS. The 3rd release candidate addresses issues identified by Coverity and updates versions of some key components:
- Intel Media 23.2.4 release (devel-682.3)
- Open WebRTC Toolkit Native SDK @ 9ec5c2f
- libvhal-client @ 11aaeda
Also, to improve development experience we decided to switch project to meson build system from cmake. This release candidate is the first one which starts using meson instead of cmake.
Features
Key supported features include:
- AVC, HEVC, AV1 video streaming
- AVC, HEVC, AV1 camera streaming
- Audio streaming
- Touch screen input capture
Video streaming supports:
- Transport Controlled Adaptive Encode (TCAE) for AVC, HEVC and AV1, see doc/tcae.md
- Support for SEI messages is experimental. Unfortunately media-driver currently has no guarantee whether any SEI messages (in terms of the message size) will be supported. Which gives a risk that encoder might return an error on certain SEI message sizes. On ICS3A we currently use very short SEI messages which has 86 bytes data plus SEI message headers, altogether under 128 bytes which is pretty small and somewhat reduces the risk, but does not eliminate it completely.
Hardware requirements
Changes
- #42: update owt on Linux to 9ec5c2f
- #44: update libvhal-client to 11aaeda
- #45: update media stack to media 23.2.4 release (devel-682.3)
- #46: fix some coverity issues
- #47: switch to meson build system
Full Changelog: v0.4.0-rc2...v0.4.0-rc3
