 # Changelog
 
+## v6.3.0-rc.1
+
+### IMPORTANT NOTES
+
+ * **Important** You need to manually execute a migration script after your upgrade while PeerTube is running.
+ The purpose of this migration is to update video files metadata in the database.
+ This migration can take a long time if you have many federated/local videos, but is designed to be safe to run multiple times:
+   * Classic installation: `cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && sudo -u peertube NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-6.3.js`
+   * Docker installation: `cd /var/www/peertube-docker && docker-compose exec -u peertube peertube node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-6.3.js`
+
+### Maintenance
+
+  * Reduce error and warning logs generated by clients and the federation
+  * Introduce `peertube_playback_buffer_stalled_count_total` OpenTelemetry playback metric
+  * Removed `access_log: off` for static video requests in the nginx configuration template, now the player doesn't use WebTorrent anymore (which was doing a large amount of small HTTP requests)
+  * PeerTube introduces a new download API endpoint that remuxes the videos on the fly to merge video and audio streams. A custom rate limit can be configured in the YAML configuration
+
+### Plugins/Themes/Embed API
+
+  * Reduce `@peertube/peertube-types` package size
+
+### Features
+
+  * :tada: Separate HLS audio and video streams :tada:
+    * Can be enabled for VODs in the admin configuration for new videos
+    * Automatically enabled for lives
+    * If enabled, an "Audio only" resolution is available in the HLS player
+    * The live can ingest and output an "Audio only" stream
+    * Reduce video disk space used since we only store one version of the audio stream
+    * The download modal has a new panel so users can easily select the resolution they want to download
+  * :tada: Introduce a transcription widget :tada:
+    * Users can open the transcription widget that appears next to the player
+    * The transcription is in sync with the video
+    * Users can search the transcript and click on a specific segment to automatically jump the video to the appropriate timecode
+  * UI/UX:
+    * More visible chapter markers in player control bar
+    * Add a button to copy server logs in admin
+    * Smoother live autoplay: only the player is reloaded
+    * Improve channel and account page tab title
+  * Support max FPS configuration: the admin can allow videos with more than 60FPS, which is the current default limit
+  * Max resolution file preserves input FPS even if < 720p, allowing users to upload and broadcast a 480p resolution at 60FPS
+  * Add ability for admins to set multiple proxies for youtube-dl that PeerTube will randomly select
+  * Support youtube-dl executable (for example *Linux standalone x64 binary* that includes additional features like [impersonation](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/?tab=readme-ov-file#impersonation))
+  * Add a cover to the file if the user only downloads the audio version of the video
+  * Better resolution label for custom video aspect. For example with a `1920x816` video, we now display `1080p` instead of `816p`
+  * Forward watch page `start` query param to the OEmbed service so that the embed starts at the correct time
+  * Notify local users on when an *Internal* video is published
+  * Add ability for admins to disable federation (disabling ActivityPub endpoints)
+
+### Bug fixes
+
+  * Fix broken object storage playlist on file removal
+  * Set live tags to replays
+  * Fix hidden delete button for original file in videos admin overview
+  * Don't crash the embed on player error
+  * Prevent embed poster flickering
+  * Fix left menu block title ellipsis
+  * Fix channel name overflow in *My Videos" page
+  * Fix player infinite buffering issues on fast live re-stream
+  * Don't display orange resume bar on live miniatures
+  * Fix video file object storage detection in admin videos overview
+  * Support ActivityPub remote actors with array `url` field
+  * Fix resetting duration filter in search page
