Galene 0.95.0 (unreleased)
|
|
|
|
* Galene now requires Go 1.20.
|
|
* Added "galenectl" utility and removed "galene-password-generator".
|
|
This is an incompatible change.
|
|
* Fixed a number of bugs in the management protocol.
|
|
* Implemented captions for the galene-stt tool.
|
|
* Reworked the peer-to-peer file transfer protocol. This is an
|
|
incompatible change.
|
|
* Added an id to every chat message, and made it possible to remove
|
|
a single chat message.
|
|
|
|
15 July 2024: Galene 0.9.1
|
|
|
|
* Added an example client with minimal functionality under static/example.
|
|
* Changed the token login to force a user interaction in order to avoid
|
|
issues with autoplay.
|
|
* Fixed a race condition that would cause the client to run with
|
|
undefined settings if the initial connection was extremely fast.
|
|
* Implemented client-side timeouts (we already had one on the server side).
|
|
* Reduced the server-side timeout.
|
|
* Don't attempt to set the file descriptor limit, since recent versions
|
|
of the Go runtime do it automatically.
|
|
|
|
26 May 2024: Galene 0.9
|
|
|
|
* Reworked the group definition format to be more modular. There are
|
|
some incompatible changes: multiple users with the same username but
|
|
distinct passords are no longer supported, and the field
|
|
"allow-anonymous" is ignored.
|
|
* Reworked the definition of administrator passwords in config.json.
|
|
The old field "admin" is ignored, a new field "users" is required.
|
|
This is an incompatible change.
|
|
* Implemented an administrative API over HTTP. Set the field
|
|
"writableGroups" in config.json to enable it. The API is described in
|
|
the file "README.API", a JavaScript library is in management.js.
|
|
* Implemented a form to allow users to change their password. If the
|
|
HTTP API is enabled, a link will appear in the side menu.
|
|
* Implemented a new command "/identify" (also availble in the users
|
|
menu) that discloses the IP address from which a user connected.
|
|
* Implemented a contextual menu that triggers on a double click on
|
|
a chat entry.
|
|
* Added a new command "/stopshare".
|
|
* Added a new permission "message" and new commands "shutup" and "unshutup".
|
|
* Changed stateless token validation to attempt all keys rather than
|
|
just the first matching one.
|
|
|
|
26 May 2024: Galene 0.8.3
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug that could allow any user to clear the chat.
|
|
|
|
14 April 2024: Galene 0.8.2
|
|
|
|
* Fixed possible crashes in the VP8 and AV1 parsers.
|
|
* Fixed keyframe detection for VP8 and VP9.
|
|
|
|
9 March 2024: Galene 0.8.1
|
|
|
|
* Security fixes to WHIP ingress.
|
|
* Improved error messages for authentication failures.
|
|
* Added "expires" and "not-before" to group descriptions.
|
|
* Allow proxyURL to contain a path, for people who run Galene at
|
|
non-root URLs. This requires manually modifying the files under
|
|
'static/' in order to point at the right locations.
|
|
|
|
25 November 2023: Galene 0.8
|
|
|
|
* Added a new configuration option "publicServer".
|
|
* Implemented the WHIP protocol (draft-ietf-wish-whip).
|
|
* Disabled simulcast on Firefox by default.
|
|
* Removed support for protocol version 1 (used before version 0.7)
|
|
* Worked around clients that don't set the VP9 and H.264 profiles.
|
|
* Updated the activity detection code to work with newer browsers.
|
|
Thanks to Jackson Vieira.
|
|
* Constrained videos sent from a browser to use 4:3 aspect.
|
|
* Implemented BCrypt as an alternate password encryption algorithm.
|
|
|
|
9 July 2023: Galene 0.7.2
|
|
|
|
* Improved workaround for Safari's autoplay-related mis-features.
|
|
* Fixed minor bugs related to stateful tokens.
|
|
|
|
14 May 2023: Galene 0.7.1
|
|
|
|
* Fixed incorrect error-handling in token parsing, which could cause
|
|
Galene to crash after receiving a mis-formatted token.
|
|
* Implement a dialog for creating tokens.
|
|
* Tweaked peer-to-peer file transfer to more reliably return an error
|
|
message to the user.
|
|
* Fixed the workaround for non-standard simulcast in older Firefox
|
|
versions.
|
|
|
|
10 April 2023: Galene 0.7.0
|
|
|
|
* Updated the protocol version to 2. Dates are now represented in
|
|
ISO 8601 format, and there is a new "error" field in error messages
|
|
that contains a machine-readable identifier.
|
|
* Implemented stateful tokens ("invitations").
|
|
* Made more errors non-fatal, which makes it possible for the client
|
|
to recover in more situations.
|
|
* Reworked the progress indicator used during file transfer.
|
|
* Added Referrer-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options headers to HTTP
|
|
responses (Galene was already generating HTML links with the
|
|
"noreferrer" option). Thanks to Alexandre Iooss.
|
|
* Fixed a bug in the handling of leave messages. (The bundled client
|
|
never sends leave, it just disconnects, so the bug never triggerred.)
|
|
* Changed the way simulcast tracks are selected to not depend on the rid.
|
|
|
|
11 January 2023: Galene 0.6.2
|
|
|
|
* Disable simulcast for screensharing; this didn't work well with many
|
|
browsers.
|
|
* Fix parsing of VP8 packets with degenerate headers.
|
|
* Fix computation of group URL when running in insecure mode.
|
|
* Add configuration option "proxyURL", which makes it easier to run
|
|
Galene behind a reverse proxy.
|
|
* Disable ulimit checking on BSD systems, where our code doesn't compile.
|
|
|
|
7 October 2022: Galene 0.6.1
|
|
|
|
* Add a camera/microphone indicator in the users list, and hide
|
|
audio-only peers by default. They can be reenabled in the side menu.
|
|
* Ensure that autolocked groups are locked on creation. Thanks to
|
|
Michael Ströder.
|
|
* Don't send chat history multiple times. Thanks to Rémy Nollet.
|
|
* Fix status display for remote (redirected) groups.
|
|
|
|
10 September 2022: Galene 0.6
|
|
|
|
* Version the protocol: the handshake message now contains a version
|
|
number, and the server will warn if it is incorrect. This will become
|
|
a hard error in the future.
|
|
* Rework the peer-to-peer file transfer protocol. It now lives in
|
|
protocol.js, which makes it easy to use by third-party clients.
|
|
* Extend the authorization protocol to allow the authorization server to
|
|
request that the client fall back to password authorization.
|
|
* Make it possible to run the web server on a Unix domain socket.
|
|
Thanks to Martin Pépin.
|
|
* Check that a given group exists before redirecting from the landing
|
|
page. This avoids an unsightly 404 error when the user makes a typo.
|
|
* Publish the group name end websocket endpoint in the group status.
|
|
This avoids hardwirint the server structure in the client.
|
|
* Fix a race condition that could cause chathistory messages to be sent
|
|
before the joined status.
|
|
|
|
23 July 2022: Galene 0.5.5
|
|
|
|
* Fix a longstanding bug with time conversion that would occasionally
|
|
cause us to miscalculate rates and send incorrect sender reports.
|
|
Thanks to lamhai1401.
|
|
* Update srtp to a version that includes Adrian Cable's optimisations.
|
|
This should yield a 10% to 20% improvement for AES-CTR (but modern
|
|
browsers use GCM).
|
|
* Reword the Safari warning to be more frightening, since screensharing
|
|
on Safari tends to get stuck.
|
|
|
|
5 May 2022: Galene 0.5.4
|
|
|
|
* Fix username check when a token is present.
|
|
* Improve the performance of AES in CTR mode.
|
|
* Tweak detection of keyframes with H.264.
|
|
|
|
25 April 2022: Galene 0.5.3
|
|
|
|
* Remove a forgotten "replace" that prevented 0.5.2 from compiling
|
|
unless "pion/ice" was downloaded manually.
|
|
* Fix a race condition in the rate estimator.
|
|
* Update pion/ice to a version that handles aggressive nomination; this
|
|
avoids broken connection in some (fairly rare) cases.
|
|
|
|
20 April 2022: Galene 0.5.2
|
|
|
|
* Implement audio-video sync in the diskwriter.
|
|
* Fix setting of the keyframe flag in audio samples in diskwriter.
|
|
* Don't use high-quality audio for screenshare by default, obey the
|
|
hqaudio preference in all cases.
|
|
* Maintain user information for oneself, not just other users.
|
|
* Call the onuser callback when a user deletes a stream.
|
|
|
|
25 March 2022: Galene 0.5.1
|
|
|
|
* Enable simulcast on Firefox.
|
|
* Fix rate control on Firefox.
|
|
* Fix corruption after packet reordering when saving to disk.
|
|
* Fix the H.264 profile for compatibility with older iPhones.
|
|
* Display a warning when joining a locked group.
|
|
* Add a hook that allows the client to influence the ICE policy.
|
|
* Fix error handling in peer-to-peer file transfer.
|
|
|
|
8 March 2022: Galene 0.5
|
|
|
|
* Implement third-party (token-based) authentication.
|
|
* Implement peer-to-peer file transfer (/sendfile).
|
|
* Add a contextual menu to the users list.
|
|
* Removed the "Broadcast file" entry in the side menu, it is now
|
|
available as a context menu entry and a chat command (/presentfile).
|
|
* Add side-menu options for high-quality audio (Opus at 128kbps) and
|
|
disabling audio preprocessing.
|
|
* Send audio in addition to video when sharing browser tabs.
|
|
|
|
1 February 2022: Galene 0.4.4
|
|
|
|
* Update dependencies. Pion WebRTC v3.1.19 fixes a bug that could cause
|
|
audio tracks to be discarded under some circumstances.
|
|
* Fix a bug that could cause user statuses (raisehand) to be discarded.
|
|
* Fix incorrect maxRate value in statistics display.
|
|
|
|
27 January 2022: Galène 0.4.3
|
|
|
|
* Fix a locking issue that could cause a deadlock when massive numbers
|
|
of clients join at the same time.
|
|
* Add support for displaying raised hands (thanks to Sascha Silbe).
|
|
* Update the MIME type for AV1 to track recent browsers.
|
|
* Avoid overflow during rate estimation.
|
|
* More fixes to the disk writer.
|
|
|
|
1 December 2021: Galène 0.4.2
|
|
|
|
* Update the samplebuilder to avoid a crash when a single frame is so
|
|
large that it overflows the buffer.
|
|
* Various other changes that improve the quality of disk recordings.
|
|
|
|
4 November 2021: Galène 0.4.1
|
|
|
|
* Create a new file data/config.json with global configuration.
|
|
* Remove data/passwd and the -redirect option with entries in config.json;
|
|
these are incompatible changes.
|
|
* Change the group URL from /group/name to /group/name/, which allows
|
|
using relative links. The old URL is redirected to the new one.
|
|
* Extend the protocol with the ability to consult the group status before
|
|
joining; this allows using the group's displayName before the user has
|
|
logged in, and will be required for new authorisation schemes.
|
|
* Allow scrolling of the login dialog, useful on small devices.
|
|
* Fixed a typo that prevented the group name from being displayed.
|
|
* Made failed videos more visible.
|
|
* No longer attempt to save passwords in browser JavaScript, it's
|
|
insecure and not very useful.
|
|
|
|
5 September 2021: Galène 0.4
|
|
|
|
* Implemented simulcast.
|
|
* Implemented scalable video coding (SVC) for VP8 and VP9.
|
|
* Preliminary support for the AV1 codec.
|
|
* Fixed the profile announced for VP9.
|
|
* Reworked the disk writer, which should no longer cause corruption
|
|
after packet loss.
|
|
* Added support for recording H.264 tracks.
|
|
* Reworked the signalling protocol, it is now possible to request
|
|
different tracks for distinct streams, and there are provisions to
|
|
carry user permissions and statuses; this is not yet used by the user
|
|
interface.
|
|
* Reworked internal signalling; this will hopefully fix issues with
|
|
losing tracks under load.
|
|
* Added an option to limit the range of UDP ports used by the server.
|
|
* Added a close button in every locally-generated video; this allows
|
|
closing individual screen shares and simplifies the UI by not creating
|
|
close buttons in the top bar.
|
|
* The server will now attempt to increase the file descriptor limit at
|
|
startup.
|
|
* Stats are now exported as JSON and formatted on the client side; the
|
|
stats URL is now /stats.html rather than just /stats.
|
|
|
|
27 April 2021: Galène 0.3.4
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in the loss estimator. We will now reduce the rate more
|
|
aggressively when there is loss in the client->serer direction.
|
|
* Fixed display of the chat on some devices.
|
|
* Exported the group.Description data structure for the sake of external
|
|
configuration tools.
|
|
|
|
16 April 2021: Galène 0.3.3
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an off-by-one error that could occasionally lead to a server
|
|
crash. Thanks to Louis Gesbert.
|
|
* Attempt to negotiate stereo Opus audio.
|
|
|
|
3 March 2021: Galène 0.3.2
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compatibility with versions of Go earlier than 1.15 (thanks to
|
|
Michael Ströder).
|
|
* Fixed a race condition in the disk writer.
|
|
|
|
26 February 2021: Galène 0.3.1
|
|
|
|
* We now notice when the TLS certificate has changed on disk; the
|
|
certificate can therefore be rotated without a restart.
|
|
* We now generate a self-signed certificate if none is found on disk.
|
|
|
|
18 February 2021: Galène 0.3
|
|
|
|
* Implemented the command /muteall. This allows muting all users except
|
|
yourself.
|
|
* Implemented the autolock and autokick user group options, that cause,
|
|
a group to be locked or all users to be kicked out when the last
|
|
administrator leaves.
|
|
* Implemented client-side filters that are run over the video before it
|
|
is sent to the server. A pair of mirroring filters are provided,
|
|
which are useful when using a mirror in front of a webcam.
|
|
* Included a built-in TURN server, which drastically simplifies
|
|
deployment in common cases.
|
|
* Implemented testing of TURN servers, on both the client and the server
|
|
side. Connectivity will be checked by the server every 12 hours, and
|
|
by the client whenever a user uses the /relay-test command.
|
|
* Group configurations are now checked at startup, and any failures are
|
|
logged. This implies that it is no longer possible to use undefined
|
|
keys in group definition files (this is a breaking change).
|
|
* Reworked the client API, which is now simpler and more uniform.
|
|
* Subgroups can now be public.
|
|
* Added an option to disable the mirror view, which is useful when writing.
|
|
* Ported file playback to Firefox.
|
|
* We now display a friendly error message when the user has disabled
|
|
WebRTC under Firefox.
|
|
* Implemented renegotiation of down streams, which reduces the amount of
|
|
flicker in the user interface.
|
|
* Fixed a number of race conditions that could cause audio tracks to
|
|
become muted or video tracks to freeze.
|
|
|
|
9 January 2021: Galène 0.2
|
|
|
|
* We now work around a limitation of the Go runtime that used to cause
|
|
a crash on 32-bit architectures.
|
|
* Recording to disk now works on Windows too.
|
|
* Error handling has been improved. In particular, group operators now
|
|
receive a friendly warning when recording to disk fails for some reason.
|
|
* It is now possible to configure a group to use codecs such as VP9 and
|
|
H.264. The default is still to use VP8 and Opus, as this yields the
|
|
best compatibility across browsers. Only VP8, VP9 and Opus can be
|
|
saved to disk.
|
|
* The command-line option "-relay-only" can be used to specify that all
|
|
media traffic should go through a TURN server.
|
|
* It is now possible to generate TURN passwords automatically, which
|
|
avoids leaking long-term TURN credentials. See the "credentialType"
|
|
value "hmac-sha1" described in README.
|
|
* The ICE configuration will now be checked periodically, and new
|
|
clients will use an updated configuration.
|
|
* The client-server protocol has been reworked to be more symmetric
|
|
and more secure. It is now documented in the file README.PROTOCOL.
|
|
* The stream abort protocol message is now supported in the client->server
|
|
direction, making it possible for the client to reject a stream.
|
|
* The delay before sending NACKs has been reduced, which gives a major
|
|
boost in video quality.
|
|
* The play from disk button is not available when the browser doesn't
|
|
support the required API. We used to display a cryptic error message
|
|
in that case.
|
|
* The command-line option -insecure allows using plain HTTP, which is
|
|
useful when running behind a reverse proxy.
|
|
* When saving to disk to disk, the keyframe interval has been reduced to 4s.
|
|
* We now send keepalives after 55s at most, which should fix issues with
|
|
reverse proxies timing out the WebSocket.
|
|
|
|
19 December 2020: Galène 0.1
|
|
|
|
* Initial release.
