0.9863

• WebGL: Fixed an issue with incorrectly setting the bitrate in Safari
• Android: Fixed a memory leak when shutting down the local camera
• Minor changes in preparation for the next HoloLens 2 update

• UWP: UWP: Reduced memory usage and reliance on C# garbage collection
• UWP: Improved documentation and made sure the xml IDE docs are included
• HoloVideoChat: Added a very high quality setting but with 15 FPS

0.9862

• Updated and Tested with unity 2021 and 2022 LTS. The Unity C# projects will now require the newer Unity versions but the C# API continues to work with Unity 2020
• MediaConfig.VideoBitrateKbits added to allow setting a target birate (appears to default to 2500 kbits which is too low for HD and higher)
• MediaConfig.VideoContentHint added. This can be set to motion, detail or text to optimize the video stream for specific content
• MAINTAIN_RESOLUTION flag is removed. Set VideoContentHint to detail instead
• MediaConfig.VideoCodecs added. This allows to set a list of codecs to priotize (VP8, VP9, AV1 are usually supported. H264 on iOS and some browsers)
• RequestStats and RtcStatsEvent added to BrowserWebRtcCall (webgl) and NativeWebRtcCall(all other except UWP). This can be used to check on the current bitrate, used codecs and more
• Native: NativeMediaConfig.FrameBuffer = true is now the default to help with fluent video playback at low render FPS
• The VideoInput example scene now shows an animated panorama image to allow testing with different birate requrements
• WebGL: Calling Unity_Media_EnableScreenCapture(“screen”, true) allows capturing the screen with system audio if supported by the browser.

UWP / Holo Video Chat:

• Fixed several issues within the wrapper that could cause stalls (deadlock in the SDK) and crashes (leaking of the video tracks that resulted in the camera to remain active)
• fixed crash causing issue when deactivating EyeTracking. This resulted in the system to restart accessing the camera directly while the VideoTransformer might still access the camera
• camera access is now delayed by 2 seconds or so
• Made the log more chatty to hopefully better be able to reproduce any crashes
• Added different VideoQuality structs to make changing it easier

0.9860

• Native: Added NativeMediaConfig.FrameBuffer. If set to true this will add a 1 frame long frame buffer to smooth the video frame rate.
• Native: Added NativeMediaConfig.ReturnLocalVideo. This is true by default and can be set to false to increase performance if access to the local video feed is not required within C#
• Native: Added PeerFactoryConfig to the native API to allow changing global settings and use multiple factories in parallel in the future
• Windows: Added support for the newer WebRTC audio module. This can be set via the UnityCallFactory.Config (must be set before the factory is initialized)

0.9858

• CallApp: fixed an issue that could make it difficult to shut down the app if the rejoin option is active & the system is offline

0.9844

• iOS workaround: Unity audio can stop playing on iOS 13 after a call ends. To avoid this the WebRTC audio layer will remain active now. You can revert to the default behavior by removing line “WebRtcCSharp.IosHelper.IosKeepAudioActive(true);” in UnityCallFactory. If the unity audio stops playing it can also be restarted it by calling the native C call “UnitySetAudioSessionActive”
• Merged all previous hotfixes into this version
• VirtualCamera will now use a depth buffer
• Android: CallAppUi will now individually request Microphone or Camera permissions if the Audio or Video button is pressed. It will untick it automatically if the permissions are missing. Some unity version omitted the second permission request if both were triggered at the same time

• Patch2: Updated iOS build script for Unity 2019.3

0.9843

• rebuild for the win x86 version to avoid an apparent compiler bug that could cause crashes during encoding of VP8 frames . Only specific CPU’s with AVX support were effected. The returned version remains at 0.9841 as no other platforms were effected.

0.9842

• iOS hotfix: In iOS 13 the local video could fail to show up / being sent. The new iOS version changed the video format by adding a padding at the end of each row of pixels causing a 1280×720 image to be 1280×768 in memory. The new hotfix will remove this padding and make sure the C# side remains compatible to all earlier versions.
• The built-in version number will still be “V0.9841” only the asset store version number had to be increased to “V0.9842” to trigger the update + notification

0.9841

  UseUnifiedPlan=false
• ICall can return more accurate error information via ErrorEventArgs.Info
• Property NetworkEvent.ErrorInfo added to return error information for some events e.g. ConnectionFailed. More detailed information + fixed error codes will be added to this later.
• CallApp update: Changed the UI to work with world canvas in VR applications (Samsung Gear VR / Oculus example coming soon)
