Features

Upgrade to @videojs/http-streaming 2.2.0

The inclusion of VHS 2 in the main Brightcove Player release is a huge milestone for us. This major update to our playback engine sets us up for many future enhancements including better Live DASH support and low latency streaming. It represents the culmination of many months of behind the scenes effort, testing, and refinement.

Congratulations to everyone who contributed to delivering VHS 2!
