Release Notes

Highlights

This release improves the streaming pipeline and refines gamepad/input handling on webOS, with a focus on Sunshine/Apollo compatibility, smoother playback, and more reliable controller detection in games that expect XInput devices.

Improvements

• Added explicit chroma subsampling negotiation for Sunshine (4:2:0, 4:4:4, 4:2:2).
• Removed the fixed 100 Mbps video bitrate cap for Sunshine hosts, allowing higher configured bitrates when supported.
• Made clientRefreshRateX100 optional, avoiding invalid refresh rate advertisement when no client refresh rate is configured.
• Improved webOS/SMP frame pacing to reduce frame presentation irregularities.
• Updated SS4S webOS video bitrate capability reporting.

Input / Gamepad

• Fixed SDL gamepad event routing in the LVGL input layer to include controller device/remap events.
• Reduced the risk of gamepad events being consumed before the session can send a ControllerArrivalEvent to the host.
• Improved controller recognition consistency in games that rely on a correctly announced virtual XInput controller.

Build / Dependencies

• Adjusted static moonlight-common-c builds to avoid unnecessary enet header installation.
• Fixed MbedTLS install layout for toolchains that use lib/<triplet> paths.

Notes

• This release includes input pipeline adjustments related to FullKeyboard/soft keyboard handling.
• Testing is recommended with games that require XInput controllers, especially Xbox Game Pass titles.
