  • API now supports setting chainedZoneId.
  • Added support for WebM videos in the IAB Video plugin.
  • Increased the maximum delay in the midnight maintenance script (from 10 seconds to 30 seconds) before calling the sync server for update information to improve load distribution on the server.

  • Fixed branding on the website Single Page Call invocation code tag page.
  • Fixed the display of the license on the install/upgrade welcome screen when using a non-root based installation process.
  • Fixed bug causing the last advertiser being sometimes hidden in the advertiser index screen.

Non-backward compatible changes

  • Removed unused Zend XML-RPC library. Make sure your 3rd party plugins bundle their own if they need it.
  • The OA_Sync class has been moved to the RV_Sync class; please make sure your 3rd party plugins are updated accordingly.
