• The Docker image now uses Ubuntu 24.04 and ffmpeg 7.1
• Added num_threads configuration option to limit the number of threads encoding will consume (0 = the number of cores in your system)
• Fixed an issue where custom encoding parameters would not be received from Kollaborate Server
• Minor bug fixes, tweaks and optimizations

Important: The Docker image is configured to convert the current database to your MariaDB version automatically. As such, we would recommend backing up the database before upgrading to any version as you may be unable to downgrade otherwise. You can download the current database as a .sql file from the Tools section of the Admin Area. We recommend doing this before copying the newer version's files over.
