Hi everyone,

We are pleased to announce the release of Shaka Player v3.0.11 and v2.5.22.  There are many important fixes in these releases.  A few are specific to bugs in v3.0 that did not exist in v2.5.

Fixes that apply to both branches:
  - Assume MP4 in HLS if MIME type can't be deduced
  - Fix resolution changes with lang change
  - Resume previous playback speed after pause
  - Fix updating of the mute icon
  - Fix text writing-mode support in old versions of Tizen and WebOS
  - Show replay icon instead of play when video ends
  - Fix cross-browser focus outline
  - Fix rapid keyboard-based seeking
  - Fix holding keyboard controls
  - Fix stylelint on Windows
  - Display cursors as pointers on overflow menu buttons
  - Official Xbox One support
  - Add link to a Shaka Player UI theme gallery (maintained by a third-party)

Fixes that apply to v3.0.x only:
  - Fix failed assertion for eviction logic
  - Fix stalls on a live dash stream
  - Fix HLS content type detection with text codecs

Ads (beta) changes in v3.0.x:
  - Fix the skip ad button not being clickable
  - Add the original IMA event to the Shaka `AD_CLICKED` event
  - Add more info on serving limited ads to the tutorial

Full details are available in the changelog.
