On Christmas 2021 we decided to release new major version of the Nuevo software, set of unique plugins for video.js framework.
Version 9.0.0 features few completely new things and some significant updates as well.
HLS redundant streams are an often forgotten part of HLS's functionality. The videojs framework supports backup or redundant HLS stream by default..
Some of users may not know about it, may not understand how it works or how to setup failover for his HLS stream.
When you're live streaming, everything has to go off perfectly, every time. Sometimes though there are several fundamental risks - BGP leaks, large-scale CDN outages, which present significant problems to even the largest streaming video platforms.
We have received several questions about icons used across video.js player skins by Nuevodevel.com.
Generally, all icons are vector icons inserted in HTML via the CSS @font-face declaration in exactly the same way as default video.js font in default css stylesheet. The font in skins by Nuevodevel.com is named "nuevo" and is declared in the skin css file as Base64 encoded WOFF font.
Version 8.0.0 of Nuevo software is the most significant update ever!
At first we completely rebuilt the code related to quality picker to improve performance and stability, but also to support 3rd party hlsjs plugin, an alternative for video.js default VHS handler used to stream HLS media files.
Two days ago Video.js 7.12.0 has been released. The new version comes with few new display rules. For this reason we were forced to update all Nuevodevel skins.
