v1.9.1 (2024-09-27)​

  • 🐛 Fixed Enter and Space keys not working to activate buttons in the UI.

v1.9.0 (2024-09-06)​

  • 🚀 Added support for THEOplayer 8.0.

v1.8.2 (2024-08-29)​

  • 🐛 Fixed blank space below UI when using <theoplayer-default-ui>.
  • 💅 Optimized performance of <theoplayer-time-range>. (#70)
    • Optimized the requestAnimationFrame callback used to update the seekbar's progress to avoid synchronous re-layouts as much as possible.
    • When playing a long video, the seek bar no longer uses requestAnimationFrame at all to update its progress. Instead, it updates using only less frequent timeupdate events.

v1.8.1 (2024-04-18)​

  • 🐛 Fixed ui.player.destroy() not working. (#59, #62)

v1.8.0 (2024-04-12)​

  • 💥 Breaking Change: This project now requires THEOplayer version 7.0.0 or higher. (#60)
  • 🚀 Added <theolive-default-ui> that provides a default UI for THEOlive streams. (#58)

v1.7.2 (2024-03-18)​

  • 🚀 Added <theoplayer-slot-container>. (#55)

v1.7.1 (2024-02-15)​

  • 💅 Export version in public API. (#53)
  • 💅 Allow importing @theoplayer/web-ui/package.json. (#53)

v1.7.0 (2024-02-15)​

  • 🚀 Added support for loading in Node for static site generation (SSG) or server-side rendering (SSR). (#50)
    • ⚠️ Although the Node entry point exports all custom element classes as usual, attempting to actually construct those classes will result in errors. Most dependencies are either replaced with stubs (using @lit-labs/ssr-dom-shim) or removed altogether (such as THEOplayer itself).
    • This should always be used together with an SSG or SSR solution. For example, you can use Open Video UI for React together with React server rendering.
  • 🐛 Fixed an issue where <theoplayer-ui> could throw an error when the player changes sources before all custom elements are properly registered. (#49)

v1.6.0 (2024-02-08)​

  • 🚀 Introducing Open Video UI for React. (#48)
    • Idiomatic React components make the Open Video UI feel right at home in your existing React web app.
  • 🚀 Added support for advertisements while casting to Chromecast. This requires THEOplayer version 6.8.0 or higher. (#47)
  • 🚀 Added theoplayerready event to <theoplayer-default-ui> and <theoplayer-ui>, which is fired once the backing THEOplayer instance is created. (#48).

v1.5.0 (2023-11-27)​

  • 🚀 Added support for smart TVs. (#40)
    • Updated <theoplayer-default-ui> to automatically switch to an optimized layout when running on a smart TV. For custom UIs using <theoplayer-ui>, you can use the tv-only and tv-hidden attributes to show or hide specific UI elements on smart TVs.
    • Added support for navigating the UI using a TV remote control.
    • Added a tv-focus attribute to specify which UI element should receive the initial focus when showing the controls on a TV. In the default UI, initial focus is on the seek bar.
  • 🚀 Allow overriding more CSS properties of <theoplayer-default-ui>. (#42)
  • 💅 Renamed project to "THEOplayer Open Video UI for Web". (#43)

v1.4.0 (2023-10-04)​

  • 💥 Breaking Change: This project now requires THEOplayer version 6.0.0 or higher.
  • 🚀 Open Video UI now imports THEOplayer as a JavaScript module using import from 'theoplayer/chromeless'. See the README for updated installation instructions.
  • 🐛 When the player's source is empty, the UI will no longer attempt to play when clicked. (#37)

v1.3.0 (2023-05-16)​

  • 💥 Breaking Change: This project now requires THEOplayer version 5.1.0 or higher.
  • 🏠 This project now depends on the chromeless version of THEOplayer, rather than the full version which includes the old video.js-based UI. (#31)
  • 🐛 Fix has-error attribute not cleared on source change (#29)

v1.2.0 (2023-04-26)​

  • 🚀 Improved support for advertisements (#28)
    • Reworked the ad control bar in <theoplayer-default-ui>.
    • Added a show-ad-markers attribute to <theoplayer-time-range>, to show markers on the progress bar indicating when the content will be interrupted by an advertisement.
    • <theoplayer-ad-skip-button> and <theoplayer-ad-clickthrough-button> are automatically hidden while playing a Google IMA ad. (This is unfortunately necessary, because Google IMA doesn't provide a way to modify or replace its own buttons.)
  • 🐛 When the player changes sources, any open menu is now automatically closed

v1.1.0 (2023-04-12)​

  • 💥 Breaking Change: This project now targets modern browsers, so dist/THEOplayerUI.js and dist/THEOplayerUI.mjs now use ES2017 syntax (such as class and async/await). See "Legacy browser support" in the README for more information about targeting older browsers. (#26, #27)
  • 🚀 Added support for THEOplayer 5.0
  • 💅 Improved accessibility (#21)
  • 💅 Make menus fill entire player when player is small (#22)
  • 🐛 Ensure player property is initialized immediately when calling new UIContainer(configuration) with a valid player configuration (#24)

v1.0.0 (2023-04-05)​

  • 🚀 Initial release
