Subtitles


Nimble Streamer now supports subtitles for VOD streaming via WebVTT, SRT and TTML formats. This support includes both single subtitle files and multiple files via SMIL.
SMIL sample files can be found in a new githib repo.

Read this article for more details.

Codecs


We also extended codecs coverage for Nimble Streamer.
We introduced support for PCM, or G711, (both a-law and μ-law) audio codec.
It can be used as input for Nimble Streamer Live Transcoder for further transformation into AAC.
It also can be used for RTSP transmuxing - it will be passed through from input to output.

Mobile SDK


Our mobile SDK for Android now has new application graphics and layout. It's a lot nicer now - get it on Google Play to check.

Next month we'll introduce new graphics for iOS as well.

Minor updates


For those who extensively uses WMPSanel API we added a code for sample API proxy on our github.
