April 2026: Focused stability work in Shaka Player with a targeted DRM-related fix. Implemented a guard to prevent an uncaught TypeError when destroying a player during DRM key status changes by checking for the streaming engine's existence before proceeding. This change reduces crash exposure on teardown and improves reliability for DRM workflows across browsers and devices, contributing to a smoother user experience and lower support overhead.
