Full Changelog: 12.0.0...12.1.0

12.0.0

This release is mainly about adding better support for fullscreen and the addition of a new custom-ui module.

• Moved DefaultPlayerUiController and all other custom UI components to a separate custom-ui module, see doc. By doing this I was able to remove all the custom UI code and resources from the core module, making it smaller. Developers can now choose to import the custom UI code only if they care about it.
• Added support for controlling fullscreen in IFrame Player. See YouTubePlayerView#addFullscreenListener and YouTubePlayer#toggleFullscreen, see doc and sample app. Thanks to @Praveen-Pable for the help with #926 and #936 !
• Added support for autoplaying videos without acquiring the audio focus, see #896 , thanks to @S3basuchian for the help!
• Fixed a memory leak, see #924.

11.1.0

This is the first release of the library where all contributions are made by the community, thanks for the help!

• Added support for playlists (#348 ), thanks to @flauschtrud
• Fixed bug that sometimes prevented library from loading (#830 ), thanks to @flauschtrud
• Enabled cache in WebView (#869 ), thanks to @flauschtrud

11.0.1

• YouTubePlayerView#setEnableAutomaticInitialization is public again.

11.0.0

• The library has been migrated to MavenCentral, as JCenter is going to disappear soon (#703)
• Web UI is now the default. This change as been made as web ui is by default compatible with YouTube's terms of service. It's still possible to add custom UIs, but that should be done only if the developer choses to do so. This is a breaking change, the doc has been updated accordingly.
  • The YouTubePlayerView#getUiController method has been removed, as there is no default UI controller now that web ui is the default.
  • Attributes like useWebUi, enableLiveVideoUi, showYouTubeButton etc have been removed, as they don't make sense with web ui as default.
  • The old native UI is now available as DefaultPlayerUiController, you can still use it if you want to.
• Added support for changing playback speed (#101), thanks to @Serkali-sudo
• Updates dependencies
