Changelog
What changed in DoveRunner Lab, newest first. The version in the footer is the latest one listed here.
v1.6.1
- Updated the privacy policy: the AI apps (MCP) section now lists what each tool receives and returns, why, who processes it and how long logs are kept.
v1.6.0
- New Changelog page, linked from the footer.
- DRM playback tester: test contents now have descriptive names such as "Big Buck Bunny · DASH · 720p · Single key", and the list fits phone screens.
- DRM playback tester: a details card explains what each test content is for, what to expect, and its stream details (codecs, encryption, resolutions, number of keys).
- The audio-only test content now shows an "Audio-only stream" badge on the player.
- Browser tabs show the page name, for example "DRM playback tester | DoveRunner Lab".
- Course and tutorial links now share with their own preview image, also shown in AI apps that use the Lab connector.
v1.5.8
- The playback tester now picks the DRM and its security level from your device and the stream, using the highest level the stream allows, and falls back when a level fails.
