ANDROID: 4.8.0

In Android 4.8.0, we created a new getter for caption rendering and addressed several bugs.

General Improvements

  • A new getter, JWPlayer.isCaptionsRendering(), has been created that checks if the caption rendering is on/off.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue when not using background audio, even with autostart enabled, playback would not begin when the player is backgrounded.
  • Fixed an issue when replacing or removing a JWPlayerFragment would not tear down correctly.
  • Fixed an issue where the ad does not play when the fragment was visible (either on the back stack or in the background).
