iOS: 4.8.0

over 1 year ago by Kevin A. Cornelius

Developers who write in Objective-C can programmatically make the JWPlayerView full screen or dismiss full screen. Also in iOS 4.8.0, we make some captions improvements and released several fixes.

New Feature

A new API has been added to the JWPlayerObjCViewController allowing developers who write in Objective-C to programmatically make the JWPlayerView full screen or dismiss full screen.

General Improvements

  • JWPlayer.loadPlaylist has been improved to accept a URL pointing to a playlist on the JWP Dashboard.
  • The size of captions now scale with the height of the JWPlayerView.
  • Caption position responds more accurately and reliably to resizing of the JWPlayerView.

Fixes

  • Memory footprint during JW VAST ad playback has been optimized and improved.
  • Layout constraint errors and warnings have been fixed in the Playlist / Recommendation menu.
