v0.1.1

What’s New

• Administrators can now turn off stream forwarding and adjust user credit balances, even into negative values.
• Faster game information loading thanks to cached IGDB calls, and added game summaries.
• New configuration options for developers and a new API for games data.
• The system now runs pipelines on multiple threads for better performance and provides metrics for monitoring.
• Added testing utilities for the MoQ streaming protocol.

Improvements

• Better handling of invoice processing failures.
• More stable streaming pipeline with automatic scaler activation and lower‑bitrate fallback.
• Sensitive URLs are no longer logged in full.
• Streams now end cleanly and forward API paths are compatible with older versions.
• Various internal updates to keep dependencies current and documentation up‑to‑date.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issues causing crashes in recorder and RTMP forwarding.
• Resolved problems with stream key handling, balance calculations, and metrics cleanup.
• Corrected encoding settings and ensured proper video scaling.

Maintenance

• Updated version numbers and dependency upgrades.

Full Changelog: v0.1.0...v0.1.1

v0.1.0

Added

• Media over QUIC (MoQ) egress support with H264, H265, VP8, VP9 video and AAC/Opus audio codecs (#37)
• Multi-track streaming configuration API (POST /api/v1/multi-track-config) for OBS auto-configuration

• Frame reorder buffer for proper B-frame handling before encoding
• Admin endpoint to retrieve pipeline logs (GET /api/v1/admin/pipeline-log/{stream_id}) (#46)
• Redis-based viewer tracking with sorted sets for scalability
• Per-stream pipeline.log for detailed debug output
• Configurable minimum stream event update rate
• get_user_live_streams database method for retrieving active streams

Changed

• Refactored EndpointConfigEngine for variant generation with deduplication across egress types
• Account balance now returned as i64 to support negative balances (#40)
• Thumbnail generation uses time-based interval (5 minutes) instead of frame count
• Encoder settings now configured by egress requirements via EncoderParam enum
• VideoVariant and AudioVariant use apply_params() for configuration
• StreamManager supports Redis for distributed viewer tracking
• Switched to NWC crate for Nostr Wallet Connect
• Upgraded ffmpeg-rs-raw dependency
• Docker image now uses Debian trixie slim runner
• User blocking immediately stops all active streams for blocked user (#47)
• Init segment writing now occurs at startup
• Withdrawal feature behind withdrawal feature flag

Fixed

• Frame PTS mangling instead of packet PTS for proper timing (#39)
• Monotonic PTS values with offset tracking per stream
• Encoder timebase set to 90k tbn for consistent timing
• HLS variant encoding issues
• Multi-track encoder settings configuration
• NV12 pixel format usage with GPU encoding
• Color space/range included in video variant parameters
• Default FPS to 30 when not detected from source
• Keyframe flag checking for thumbnails in copy-only pipelines (#44)
• Thumbnail generation for copy-only streams
• Audio always transcoded for copy streams for compatibility
• Negative cost/duration value prevention with validation
• Memory leak in pipeline processing
• AVIO crash with additional logging (#50)
• Crypto provider setup for TLS connections (#49)
• History endpoint 500 error from payment_type type mismatch (#45)
• Negative balance return value (#40)
• Stream image set on new stream; thumb used as image when no image set
• Empty strings removed from stream metadata
• Init segment flags for proper playback

Removed

• Idle mode from pipeline runner (streams now end cleanly on EOF)
• Circuit breaker logic for decode failures
• Idle state from RunnerState enum
• Apt cache from Docker image
