Full Twitch support - New Borderless and Fullscreen display modes, with a new `/display fullscreen` command for events and presentations ([#135](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/135)) - Added custom video support and file-host share link support (Google Drive, Dropbox, imgur, etc.) — paste a direct link to any video and play it on a display (server must be 1.9.0 or higher) - Added Twitch, Kick, Vimeo, and Bilibili support ([#129](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/129), [#129](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/156), [#173](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issues/173)) - Added 3D acoustics for displays: sound is muffled by walls (occlusion), loses highs over distance (air absorption), and picks up room / cave reverberation raytraced from nearby blocks and their material; e.g., stone reflects, wool absorbs ([#147](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/147)) - Added an audio track selector, so you can pick your language right in the display menu ([#149](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/149)) - Added `/display schedule` command to schedule a video to play at a specific time - Added `/display name` command ([#151](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/151)) - Changed some display commands syntax: now you can choose the display by its ID or by looking at it and typing "this" - Added support for saving and restoring the last known playback position everywhere, and each display's custom render distance across game restarts - Added distance-based quality: a display now steps its video quality down as you move away from it (one step at 66% of its render distance, two steps at 75%) - Added YouTube chapter markers - Added a filter button - Added click sounds when clicking buttons in the display menu - Gray-out only seekbar and near buttons when the display isn't ready yet, instead of the whole menu - Added [Crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/dreamdisplays) integration ([#141](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/141)) - Brought back `NeoForge` 1.21.11 releases to the [corporate ad dispenser](https://www.curseforge.com/) ### Improvements - Improved displays performance ([#131](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/131)) - Reduced native decode-path overhead on every frame, for smoother in-process playback - Increased stall watchdog threshold from 30 to 45 seconds to avoid false positives on slow networks - Added scrubbing preview on the seek bar (frame preview on hover) - Repeat all videos for all platforms on every playback mode (server must be 1.9.0 or higher) - Renamed the `Synchronization` setting to `Playback mode` and its tooltip now briefly explains each mode (`Local`, `Synced`, `Broadcast`) - Default video quality is now 1080p instead of 720p, falling back to the closest available lower quality when 1080p isn't offered - Raised the `Broadcast` quality cap from 360p to 720p - The quality performance warning in the display menu now only appears above 1080p instead of at 1080p and up - Enhanced UI components ([#148](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/148)) - Now recommendations are endlessly scrolling - Enhanced ambient grid ([#136](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/136)) - All sliders now have snap behavior and fixed subdivisions for better precision - Improved popout context menu positioning - Improved scrollbars: now you can drag them - Retry on "Not all references are available" error instead of fatal erroring - Removed the greyed-out buttons state while a display isn't ready yet - Added an author's avatar and a verified badge next to their name - Enhanced cursor handling for 1.21.11 - Improved `Gradle` build system, so it looks less like a frankenstein ([#150](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/150)) - Improved platform resources structure - Codebase improvements: more Kotlin analogues instead of Java imports, optimized imports - Improved KDoc documentation in the codebase - Improved wiki ### Fixes - Fixed video sometimes freezing indefinitely - Fixed a `Synced` / `Broadcast` display sometimes getting stuck on "Waiting for video..." forever ([#138](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issue/138)) - Fixed "Unrecoverable stream failure" error when using Iris shaders ([#146](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issue/146)) - Fixed live resume, live quality switches, and stall recovery blocking every other play / pause / seek / etc. action on the display for the whole network re-resolve - Fixed some videos getting a permanently broken stream (403 Forbidden) instead of falling back to a working one - Fixed retries being silently unlimited when a resolved stream failed to open right away - Fixed the background quality refresher endlessly restarting a live stream when the closest available rendition didn't exactly match the requested quality - Fixed video getting stuck when seeking right after changing quality ([#121](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issues/121)) - Fixed a failed quality switch permanently blocking re-selecting that same quality - Loop `Local` displays on instead of freezing - Fixed disappearing suggestions in some cases after a stutter / lag spike, requiring a seek to unstick it - Fixed disappearing video preview when pausing and returning to the menu - Fixed restoring display snapshots from prior sessions - Fixed a display first sighted outside the client's render distance staying invisible until the server's next periodic broadcast - Fixed a stale pre-seek frame occasionally slipping through and briefly rewinding the picture right after a seek - Fixed the reappearance bridge occasionally playing audio from just before a seek instead of the resumed position - Fixed occasional stutter and dropped opening frames right after opening or seeking a video, caused by a leftover `FFmpeg` buffering flag - Fixed the warm-park pool TTL being too short - Fixed the display menu's video preview being fit to the display's own block shape instead of the video's aspect ratio - Fixed audio diagnostics from a just-ended session occasionally being spliced into the next one's error report - Suppressed repeat media errors for 15 s after retry ## Server ### Features - Support `Bungeecord` and `Velocity` - `NeoForge` server support ([#95](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issues/95)) - New command: `/display fullscreen` for events and presentations ([#135](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/135)) - Full `LuckPerms` support on `Fabric` / `NeoForge` servers ([#128](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/128)) - Added a `[custom_media]` config section and a `dreamdisplays.custom` permission to control whether players may play their own links (Vimeo, Kick, and direct files), with optional per-host allow / blocklists - `/display video` now accepts any supported link, not only YouTube URLs - Added `max_displays_per_player` config limit and wired up the `create_bypass` permission and `fullscreen.quality_cap` setting - Added explosion protection for `Fabric` and `NeoForge` servers ### Improvements - Reduced per-player memory overhead on long-running servers with many unique joins - `Dream Displays` security improvements - Added a `storage.use_ssl` option in `config.toml` to enable TLS on the `MySQL` connection (was hardcoded off) - Repeat all videos for all platforms on every playback mode ([#127](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/pull/127)) - `Fabric` / `NeoForge` server display deletion now notifies nearby clients itself, matching `Paper`, so a future caller can't forget to broadcast - `/display delete` is now available to everyone for their own displays - Added hover and preview fade effects, plus a ghost handle, to the seekbar - More modularization and cleanup, more Kotlin analogues instead of Java imports, optimized imports - Improved KDoc documentation in the codebase -

Fixed a forced-locked `Broadcast` display being switchable back to another mode - Fixed a reported video duration being trusted from any player anywhere on the server - Fixed the Picture-in-Picture pin packet being able to flood the server with disk writes - Now fullscreen command flags are fixed to stop command-tree blowup on join ([#164](https://github.com/arnodoelinger/dreamdisplays/issue/164)) - Fixed displays removed by the startup material-validation sweep not telling online players to forget them, leaving ghost displays until reconnect - Fixed deleted displays leaking their legacy v1 sync state, which kept being carried by the periodic broadcast - Fixed the staggered display list send to a joining player not stopping when the player disconnected mid-send
