Player SDK mobile (iOS & Android) will release version 11.8 in April 2024. This update adds a series of premium features on top of the existing features and authorization checks for multi-audio tracks and external subtitles, which can be used with a Premium Version License. The original Video Playback License is renamed as the Basic Version License. Impacts as below:
If you need to use the new version of the SDK (Player SDK mobile version 11.8 and above) and require multi-audio tracks, external subtitles and the newly added premium features, you will need to purchase a Premium Version License for authorization.
If you need to use the new version of the SDK but do not require multi-audio tracks, external subtitles and the newly added premium features, you will need to acquire authorization for the Basic Version License. You can sign in console for free application.
