[dependabot]

Bumps dashjs from 3.2.2 to 4.5.2.

Release notes

Sourced from dashjs's releases.

dash.js v4.5.2

Features

#4089 Add parsing and rendering of WebVTT subtitles in dash.js using vtt.js, not relying on native texttracks events anymore. This is required for platforms like HbbTV that do not provide native WebVTT support. An example can be found here: https://reference.dashif.org/dash.js/nightly/samples/captioning/vttjs.html @​dsilhavy

Improvements

#4088 Fix redundant segment download when seeking back into already buffered area @​dsilhavy #4093 In case of gaps: Check for a valid segment request using the period duration @​dsilhavy

Bugfixes

#4087 Do not trigger live delay calculation multiple times at playback start @​dsilhavy #4091 If seek is called with a negative value rewrite to 0 @​dsilhavy #4092 Account for invalid starttimes provided to attachSource() @​dsilhavy #4096 Fix linting errors @​dsilhavy

dash.js v4.5.1

Features

• #4064 Adds an example which shows how the dash.js player can be connected to a TimingObject for synchronized playback between multiple clients @​chrisguttandin

Improvements

• #4054 Improvements when setting min and max playback rate @​mattjuggins :
  • Separate playbackRate into a min and max value. This means the application of rates can be the same between ServiceDescription and dash.js settings.
  • Applies playback rates of value 1.0 if explicitly set.
  • Modify catch-up algorithms to take into account these separate playback rate values.
  • Update sample to take into account min and max playback rate values.
• #4018 Separate settings matcher to work on each property provided for initial track selection individually @​stschr
• #4056 Change the logic for pruning the buffer ahead. Calculate the continuous buffer starting at the target time and prune according to the threshold values defined in the settings @​dsilhavy
• #4057 For VoD Limit the seek range to the duration of the content @​dsilhavy
• #4082 Add settings attribute to define manifest request timeout value @​dsilhavy

Bugfixes

• #4086 Fix a bug that lead to wrong selection of initial WebVTT track @​dsilhavy
• #4058 Fix Typescript typings for MediaPlayer.on() method @​bbert
• Link Add min width to video time of Controlbar to overcome issues when seeking between a time less than one hour and a time larger than one hour @​dsilhavy
• #4068 Fix rounding issues when searching for valid segment in order to jump a gap @​bbert
• #4069 Some platforms provide changeType() as a function but actually using it causes problems when switching between tracks with different codecs. This PR adds a settings flag to disable the usage of changeType even when it is available on the platform. @​dsilhavy
• #4079 Only run Github actions if we are on the official repository @​dsilhavy
• #4080 Add supplementalProperties attribute to index.d.ts and MediaInfo.js @​dsilhavy
• #4081 Catch errors when applying styles on WebVTT cue @​dsilhavy
• #4085 Fix an issue that causes an exception when calling extendedFilter with an empty string @​dsilhavy

dash.js v4.5.0

Features

#4031 Adds support for content steering as defined in the IOP specification - @​dsilhavy #4003 New playback catchup seeking/pausing logic: Adjust the liveDelay when the user seeks/pauses. Then catchup mode is applied with the new live delay as target value.By calling player.seekToLive() the app can jump back to this original live delay. - @​dsilhavy #4024 Allow requests to be modified in an async manner. - @​littlespex #4036 #4015 Implements a "matcher" for the XML parser; it checks @lang attributes read from MPDs and normalizes them into a BCP-47 compliant format. In addition, normalize language tags provided through dash.js' setInitialMediaSettingsFor()-API as Strings, while using RegExp through this API is maintained. - @​stschr

Improvements

#4020 Lower minPlaybackRateChange for non Safari browsers depending on the maximum catchup rate. Otherwise the target live delay is not reached for low catchup rates. - @​dsilhavy
