Release notes for today's Bigscreen update:
Desktop Audio streaming update
Anyone can now start Desktop Audio streaming inside of a room (Previously, only the room creator could start Desktop Audio *before* creating the room.) Simply click the orange "volume" icon in the room UI. Voicemeeter Banana is still required if you want to broadcast your desktop audio stream. We're continuing to work on ways of making this easier.
Admin powers
Admins can now "lock" the big presentation screen and "lock" desktop audio. Locking prevents people from hijacking the screen or trolling, and is recommended if you're watching a movie in the room and you don't want to be interrupted. More admin powers will be coming in the near future.
New user interface
You can now browse the Multiplayer lobby / list of public rooms, even if you're inside a room. This allows you to browse other rooms and see what rooms your friends are in, without leaving your current room.
Many bug fixes
"Double admin" bug has been fixed
SBS 3D on the small / personal screen has been fixed
Roadmap
We've got dozens of major features in the works, each of which takes weeks or months of work. The current priorities are:
- multimonitor support
- a new cinema environment
- desktop audio streaming improvements
- better FPS in multiplayer streaming
- performance improvements
