afterglow v1.0.0
This release brings some new features and gets rid of the 'beta' label. π
New stuff
- afterglow does now have support for Vimeo. Due to limitations that Vimeo imposes, it's not possible for non-premium accounts to hide the Vimeo UI, so we use it as a default. Other than that, Vimeo works completely the way that Youtube works with the player.
- We implemented a working event system, which finally allows to react to player events. There are some basic HTML5 video event (like
play
,paused
,ended
and so on), as well as some events related to lightboxes (lightbox-launched
,lightbox-closed
) and some other events. Read the updated documentation to learn more on that.
Improvements
- afterglow is now responsive by default. This might break some older setups, but looking forwards, this is the only way to go. In order to redisable responsive scaling (in case you didn't use it), just add
data-autoresize="none"
to your video elements. - The project's website was completely rewritten and will update shortly, also bringing a basic integration wizard with it.
CDN changes
There has been a change to how the CDN works. Due to this change, old links to the cdn probably won't get updated to v1.0.0 and upcoming. Update your links according to the documentation to get back online with v1.0 and upcoming releases.
