Among some of the noteworthy changes implemented in MythTV 0.28.1, we can mention HEVC support to the MPEG-TS parser, support for A53 captions, additional CORS support for the built-in HTTP server, and compatibility with the libcec4 library. The patch also fixes FIFO and RTjpeg transcoding, adds proper handling of stride size when transcoding, introduces the ability to stop and reactivate a recording, and implements automatic detection of systemd on Arch Linux systems.
