2.2.1

Patch release. Playback, audio, and Now-Playing fixes. No public API change, existing 2.2.x callers are unaffected.

Fixes

  • Persistent forward-streaming AVIO reader for CDN direct-URL playback (#25). The fragile chunked range reader is replaced with a VLC-style single forward-streaming connection that reconnects with backoff on drops. Waiting on data is now edge-triggered, and the reconnect cap is progress-aware so a stream that keeps advancing is not killed by a transient stall.
  • Multichannel audio no longer downmixes to stereo with continuous-audio off (#24). Audio-route capability is sampled after playback settles rather than at readyToPlay, when the HDMI route has not finished negotiating yet. The native path lets AVKit own audio-session activation, and the manual reassert is scoped to the renderer paths that actually need it. (Earlier session-reassert and route-renegotiation attempts in this cycle were disproven on device and reverted.)
  • System Now-Playing survives native-to-native reloads (#15). Episode autoplay and audio-track switches reuse the existing native AVPlayer via replaceCurrentItem instead of building a fresh one, which previously blanked the Control Center Now-Playing card on every swap.

See CHANGELOG.md for the release index.
