We've also shipped Daily Prebuilt accessibility improvements, a high CPU usage notification, and stability fixes across our media services.

0.83.1

Updated mediasoup-client for compatibility with Chrome 140. Without this fix, joining or reconnecting to a call without an audio track would fail on Chrome 140.
Added a workaround for a Firefox 142 bug that caused daily-js to incorrectly report bad network conditions due to roundTripTime.
Fixed a regression in 0.82.0 where captureOptions passed to startScreenShare() were ignored.
Removed deprecated and unused rtp-tracks recording support.

0.82.0

Added support for calling startScreenShare() prior to join(). A call to preAuth() or startCamera() is still required first to initialize state.
Fixed and improved error handling for setOutputDevicesAsync(). The method now throws an error if the call fails.
Updated dependencies to resolve security vulnerabilities.
Bumped Krisp to the latest version with updated models. Added handling for CPU overload which can cause choppy voice output. This will temporarily and silently pause audio processing while the CPU recovers. If overload continues, daily-js will emit an audio-processor-error with errorMsg of "Krisp error: system overload", turn off the processor, and mute the microphone.
