AI Summary

This release focuses on stability improvements, specifically fixing RTSP server crashes and memory leaks, while enhancing HLS muxer latency handling and H264 decoding compatibility.

Key Highlights

Fixed DTS extraction for H264 streams encoded with NVENC
Improved RTSP server stability by fixing crashes and session handling errors
Enhanced HLS muxer with latency reduction and trusted proxy support
Fixed on-demand commands closing prematurely after 10 seconds

Full Release Notes

### Fixes and improvements

* General: fix extracting DTS from H264 streams encoded with nvenc (#989)
* General: fix bug that caused on-demand commands to be closed after 10secs (#1000)
* General: replace bit reader / writer with a better implementation, improving performance
* RTSP server: correctly close sessions in case of errors during SETUP, preventing a memory leak (#965)
* RTSP server: server: fix crash that happens when a reader tries to setup a closed stream (#866)
* RTSP server / proxy: improve handling of RTP/H264 packets, in order to heal invalid packets wherever they come from
* RTSP proxy: fix parsing of transport headers with empty source (#986)
* RTSP proxy: support TP-Link application tracks (#990)
* RTMP server: fix compatibility with some DJI drones (#928)
* HLS muxer: compensate latency by using the hls.js parameter maxLiveSyncPlaybackRate inside the default player. This further decreases decreases LL-HLS latency and prevents it from increasing over time (#972)
* HLS muxer: return 404 instead of 500 when a stream is not found
* HLS muxer: show real client IPs when behind a proxy. A new parameter hlsTrustedProxies has been added in order to set trusted proxies IPs (#955)
