  • Fix bug where playback speeds set immediately after disabling audio may be overridden by a previous speed change (#10882).
• Video:
  • Map HEVC HDR10 format to HEVCProfileMain10HDR10 instead of HEVCProfileMain10.
  • Add workaround for a device issue on Chromecast with Google TV and Lenovo M10 FHD Plus that causes 60fps AVC streams to be marked as unsupported (#10898).

r2.18.3

• Core library:

  • Add ConcatenatingMediaSource2 that allows combining multiple media items into a single window (#247).
• Extractors:
  • Throw a ParserException instead of a NullPointerException if the sample table (stbl) is missing a required sample description (stsd) when parsing trak atoms.
  • Correctly skip samples when seeking directly to a sync frame in fMP4 (#10941).
• Audio:
