Brightcove Player v7.56.0

Brightcove Player 7.56.0 is available for manual update.

No existing players have been auto-updated to this version. Customers eager for a feature or fix that is only available in this version may manually update via the Studio Players JSON Editor or the Player Management API.

Features

• [Chapters] Chapter titles can follow the caption or audio track the viewer selects, without changing the player language. Enable it in the player configuration:

  { "chapters": { "autoSwitchLanguage": true } }
  

Fixes

• [Interactivity] Fix an issue where passing a gated quiz ignored the configured "On pass" jump-to-time action and, in some cases, did not pause. The video now jumps and pauses as configured.
• The vttjs query-string parameter now only accepts HTTPS URLs on players.brightcove.net or vjs.zencdn.net. To use a custom WebVTT loader, set it through the player configuration or the data-vttjs attribute.
