We’ve recently released a new version of our OpenTok client for web – OpenTok.js 2.4. This release includes:
- Screen sharing support — You can now share your screen as the video source for a publisher in Chrome and Firefox, for online meetings, presentations and more. See more here.
- Control of cropping and letter-boxing of videos — You can now specify whether videos will be cropped or letter-boxed when the aspect ratio of the video does not match the aspect ratio of the DOM element.
- OpenTok Plugin for Internet Explorer improvements:
- Audio Levels API support in Internet Explorer. This means your customers can benefit from OpenTok’s audio detection capabilities.
- The installation and update dialog boxes are now responsive, resizing appropriately based on the browser window’s dimensions.
- Multiple bug fixes and performance optimizations.
For more information please see the release notes.
Please note that we’ve also updated the version numbering. You should now load the OpenTok.js 2.4 library by referencing the major version only in the script tag:
<script src=”//static.opentok.com/v2/js/opentok.min.js”></script>
For more information, see OpenTok version numbers.
