v7.4.4

Smoother streaming 🎮

Big round of work on the streaming pipeline. Streams are noticeably smoother, and a bad connection doesn't wreck them anymore.

  • Frames are timestamped when they're captured, so a laggy game no longer makes the stream stutter on top of it.
  • The stream watches for network delay instead of waiting for packet loss, and lowers quality before things freeze.
  • Frame rates are layered now. If a viewer's connection can't keep up, they drop to 30fps for a bit while everyone else stays at 60.
  • Much faster recovery after a connection drop.

Woosh is on Android 📱

The Android app is out on Google Play. It's the full app: chat, voice, calls, push notifications. It opens where you left off, and messages you send while offline go out once you're back online.
