Slicer release 240304.05.01
Changes since 240304.04.02-master slicer release:
Fixes:
-
Fix liveslicer shutdown deadlock with use_brokers=3.
-
Fix misplacement of external_id on the previous asset after /content_start with use_brokers=4.
-
Fix unhandled uploader exceptions.
Known issues:
-
Live slicer configuration option discont_when_fps_changes: yes may cause excessive discontinuities and should not be used.
-
VOD slicer option -ac3_pass_through_all does not work as expected when combined with -lang and -audiodesc options.
-
Apple M1 slicer build (mac_arm64) does not support Dolby AC3/EC3 encoding, or Nielsen options.
Prerequisites:
-
Due to CentOS 6 reaching EOL in November 2020 this slicer release requires CentOS 7 or newer.
-
Due to the slicer being built on CentOS 7 it picks up some new library dependencies which are not included in the base install of Ubuntu 18.04. Ubuntu users may need to pre-install them: sudo apt install libnl-3-200 libatomic1.
-
Nvidia driver 418 or later is required for HEVC 4K HDR/SDR.
-
Mac intel build: sudo xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine uplynk_slicer_mac_64-240304.05.01-master.
-
Mac arm64 build: sudo xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine uplynk_slicer_mac_arm64-240304.05.01-master.
As of 23020901-rc1 VOD slicer no longer requires a CPU with AVX instruction set support, and is compatible with rosetta on Apple M1.
