November 2025 – Luxonis depthai-core delivered substantial advances across media pipelines, release engineering, and security. Key features include a comprehensive video workflow enhancement with predefined FPS for the video recorder, expanded video encoder testing including lossless MJPEG evaluation, and RVC4 checks; firmware bumped to align with device releases; remote services strengthened through an exposed library version service with tests; CI/CD stabilization by hiding publish interval settings and fixing pipeline style; and a secure, event-driven wheel distribution workflow via Channel ID secret handling and push-triggered uploads. Minor NNArchive stability fixes contributed to more reliable model storage and destruction semantics. Overall, these efforts reduce release risk, improve device compatibility, and accelerate deployment cycles while sharpening testing coverage and security practices.
