v10.0.0-beta.14

Compare changes on GitHub

Beta.14 lets you scroll to adjust volume: hover the volume slider and use the mouse wheel, with the step size configurable through a new wheelStep prop in both the HTML and React players (#1175). The behavior is documented in the VolumeSlider reference (#1195).

Native HLS playback gets proper error handling: the player intercepts native <video> error events and re-dispatches them enriched with a MediaError, so errors from native HLS surface with the same shape as the rest of the pipeline (#1190). The native-hls-video element also ships in the CDN build (#1208).

Ejected (light DOM) player layouts get UI-only CDN presets, such as cdn/video-ui.js and cdn/audio-ui.js, that register the player, container, and all UI custom elements without creating a skin element (#1206). Related eject fixes land alongside: ejected React skins use valid import specifiers (#1192), and ejected skin CSS includes the base and shared styles (#1196).

Tooltips are visual-only from this release: they render with role="presentation" and no ARIA link to their trigger, while media buttons always self-label with aria-label. This removes the double screen-reader readout, and buttons auto-forward their current label (“Play”, “Pause”) to the tooltip, so skins no longer need manual label components (#1174).

A few smaller fixes round out the release: thumbnails work again in React when using HLS media (#1210), TimeElement creates its children in connectedCallback instead of the constructor (#1209), SkinMixin is renamed to SkinElement (#1159), and the docs site’s LLM markdown output gains absolute URLs, footer links, and sidebar-organized indexes (#1200, #1201, #1203).
