Version 4.8.114
•

New roKeyboard.SetLayout() method, which allows you to change the keyboard layout to many nonEnglish configurations

Bug Fixes
•

Among synchronized players, the sync master player is now always set as the PTP master as well. This
fixes playback issues (such as video freezing on the master player or video stuttering on sync slaves)
that occur when a slave player become the PTP master.

•

An HTML page that includes an MP4 stream with seeking capabilities no longer operates slowly or
causes the player to crash.

•

Exiting an HTML state at a certain moment (right after "sourceChangedCallback" prints a message) no
longer causes the player to crash.

•

RTSP streaming now works when the server initializes with a connection address of 0.0.0.0.

•

Players now respect the Content-Base field contained in the DESCRIBE response from an RTSP
streaming server.

Improvements
•

HDMI input now supports video rotation (via the roVideoPlayer.SetTransform() method).

•

BrightScript no longer allows an interlaced video to be rotated 90 or 270 degrees with the
roVideoPlayer.SetTransform() method. Interlaced video can still be rotated 180 degrees.

Version 4.8.114
•

There have been further improvements to HTML JavaScript garbage collection, resulting in better longterm performance with fewer crashes.

•

Creating an HTML canvas that exceeds the maximum display area (1920x1080) no longer causes the
player to crash.

•

An Audio Stream state no longer stops completely if the data rate of the stream falls below a certain
amount. Playback will still stop if the data rate is low enough or falls to zero.

•

HTTP addresses for audio/video streams no longer require a trailing slash to work.
