This release drops support for OS X 10.7 and earlier.
Support for some optical media functionality (DVD/CD) is now disabled by default.

More parts of the player are now licensed under LGPL. In particular:

  • OSD symbol font
  • ass_mp, sd_ass
  • common.h
  • demux/packet
  • demux_mkv (with minor exceptions), ebml, matroska.h
  • sd_lavc
  • sub/osd

Thanks to all contributors who have agreed to relicensing of their changes!
See #2033 for details.

Starting with this release, releases will be tagged on the master branch.
The release/current branch is thus abandoned.
