Apr 1, 2025Month: 2025-04 — Focused on stabilizing audio behavior and code quality in THEOplayer's React Native integration. Key features delivered include robust audio focus management around mute/unmute, ensuring playback does not pause when muted and resumes correctly when unmuted. Major bugs fixed include preventing unintended playback pauses and restoring audio focus on unmute. Completed API refactors to rename AudioFocusManager APIs for clarity and removed unused imports, with corresponding release notes updated. These changes reduce user disruption, improve stability in audio sessions, and lay groundwork for faster future work. Technologies include React Native integration, Android AudioFocus API usage, Kotlin/React context cleanup, and maintainability improvements. Business value: smoother UX, reduced maintenance burden, and clearer API surface for developers.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025: Stability and reliability enhancements for THEOplayer on React Native. Fixed a rare THEOplayerView initialization crash by passing the React context directly to the constructor to avoid a potential NullPointerException from a null currentActivity. Added a changelog entry documenting the NPE crash. This work is tied to two commits and improves the developer and user experience when integrating THEOplayerView by reducing initialization crashes and clarifying behavior in the docs.
