Changes in this update:
**Enhancements**
* Added support for the new Alexa [DoNotDisturb](https://developer.amazon.com/docs/alexa-voice-service/donotdisturb.html) interface, which enables users to toggle the do not disturb (DND) function on their Alexa built-in products.
* The SDK now supports [Opus](https://opus-codec.org/license/) encoding, which is optional. To enable Opus, you must [set the CMake flag to `-DOPUS=ON`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/wiki/Build-Options#Opus-encoding), and include the [libopus library](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/wiki/Dependencies#core-dependencies) dependency in your build.
* The MediaPlayer reference implementation has been expanded to support the SAMPLE-AES and AES-128 encryption methods for HLS streaming.
* AES-128 encryption is dependent on libcrypto, which is part of the required openSSL library, and is enabled by default.
* To enable [SAMPLE-AES](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/wiki/Dependencies#core-dependencies/Enable-SAMPLE-AES-decryption) encryption, you must set the `-DSAMPLE_AES=ON` in your CMake command, and include the [FFMPEG](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/wiki/Dependencies#core-dependencies/Enable-SAMPLE-AES-decryption) library dependency in your build.
* A new configuration for [deviceSettings](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/v1.11.0/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L59) has been added.This configuration allows you to specify the location of the device settings database.
* Added locale support for es-MX.
**Bug Fixes**
* Fixed an issue where music wouldn't resume playback in the Android app.
* Now all equalizer capabilities are fully disabled when equalizer is turned off in configuration file. Previously, devices were unconditionally required to provide support for equalizer in order to run the SDK.
* [Issue 1106](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/1106) - Fixed an issue in which the `CBLAuthDelegate` wasn't using the correct timeout during request refresh.
* [Issue 1128](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/1128) - Fixed an issue in which the `AudioPlayer` instance persisted at shutdown, due to a shared dependency with the `ProgressTimer`.
* Fixed in issue that occurred when a connection to streaming content was interrupted, the SDK did not attempt to resume the connection, and appeared to assume that the content had been fully downloaded. This triggered the next track to be played, assuming it was a playlist.
* [Issue 1040](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/1040) - Fixed an issue where alarms would continue to play after user barge-in.
**Known Issues**
* `PlaylistParser` and `IterativePlaylistParser` generate two HTTP requests (one to fetch the content type, and one to fetch the audio data) for each audio stream played.
* Music playback history isn't being displayed in the Alexa app for certain account and device types.
* On GCC 8+, issues related to `-Wclass-memaccess` will trigger warnings. However, this won't cause the build to fail, and these warnings can be ignored.
* In order to use Bluetooth source and sink PulseAudio, you must manually load and unload PulseAudio modules after the SDK starts.
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* The Alexa app doesn't always indicate when a device is successfully connected via Bluetooth.
* Connecting a product to streaming media via Bluetooth will sometimes stop media playback within the source application. Resuming playback through the source application or toggling next/previous will correct playback.
* When a source device is streaming silence via Bluetooth, the Alexa app indicates that audio content is streaming.
* The Bluetooth agent assumes that the Bluetooth adapter is always connected to a power source. Disconnecting from a power source during operation is not yet supported.
* On some products, interrupted Bluetooth playback may not resume if other content is locally streamed.
* `make integration` is currently not available for Android. In order to run integration tests on Android, you'll need to manually upload the test binary file along with any input file. At that point, the adb can be used to run the integration tests.
* On Raspberry Pi running Android Things with HDMI output audio, beginning of speech is truncated when Alexa responds to user TTS.
* When the sample app is restarted and network connection is lost, alerts don't play.
* When network connection is lost, lost connection status is not returned via local Text-to Speech (TTS).
Changes in this update:
**Enhancements**
* `rapidJson` is now included with "make install".
* Updated the `TemplateRuntimeObserverInterface` to support clearing of `displayCards`.
* Added Windows SDK support, along with an installation script (MinGW-w64).
* Updated `ContextManager` to ignore context reported by a state provider.
* The `SharedDataStream` object is now associated by playlist, rather than by URL.
* Added the `RegistrationManager` component. Now, when a user logs out all persistent user-specific data is cleared from the SDK. The log out functionality can be exercised in the sample app with the new command: `k`.
**Bug Fixes**
* [Issue 400](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/400) Fixed a bug where the alert reminder did not iterate as intended after loss of network connection.
* [Issue 477](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/477) Fixed a bug in which Alexa's weather response was being truncated.
* Fixed an issue in which there were reports of instability related to the Sensory engine. To correct this, the `portAudio` [`suggestedLatency`](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/blob/master/Integration/AlexaClientSDKConfig.json#L62) value can now be configured.
**Known Issues**
* The `ACL` may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
* `SpeechSynthesizerState` currently uses `GAINING_FOCUS` and `LOSING_FOCUS` as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
* Music playback doesn't immediately stop when a user barges-in on iHeartRadio.
* The Windows sample app sometimes hangs on exit.
* GDP receives a `SIGPIPE` when troubleshooting the Windows sample app.
- Changes in this update:
- Better GStreamer error reporting. MediaPlayer used to only report `MEDIA_ERROR_UNKNOWN`, now reports more specific errors as defined in `ErrorType.h`.
- Codebase has been formatted for easier reading.
- `DirectiveRouter::removeDirectiveHandler()` signature changed and now returns a bool indicating if given handler should be successfully removed or not.
- Cleanup of raw and shared pointers in the creation of `Transport` objects.
- `HTTP2Stream`s now have IDs assigned as they are acquired as opposed to created, making associated logs easier to interpret.
- `AlertsCapabilityAgent` has been refactored.
- Alert management has been factored out into an `AlertScheduler` class.
- Creation of Reminder (implements Alert) class.
- Added new capability agent for `PlaybackController` with unit tests.
- Added Settings interface with unit tests.
- Return type of `getOffsetInMilliseconds()` changed from `int64_t` to `std::chronology::milliseconds`.
- Added `AudioPlayer` unit tests.
- Added teardown for all Integration tests except Alerts.
- Implemented PlaylistParser.
- Bug fixes:
- AIP getting stuck in `LISTENING` or `THINKING` and refusing user input on network outage.
- SampleApp crashing if running for 5 minutes after network disconnect.
- Issue where on repeated user barge-ins, `AudioPlayer` would not pause. Specifically, the third attempt to “Play iHeartRadio” would not result in currently-playing music pausing.
- Utterances being ignored after particularly long TTS.
- GStreamer errors cropping up on SampleApp exit as a result of accessing the pipeline before it’s been setup.
- Crashing when playing one URL after another.
- Buffer overrun in Alerts Renderer.
- [SampleApp crashing when issuing "Alexa skip" command with iHeartRadio.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/153)
- [`HTTP2Transport` network thread triggering a join on itself.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/127)
- [`HTTP2Stream` request handling truncating exception messages.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/67)
- [`AudioPlayer` was attempting an incorrect state transition from `STOPPED` to `PLAYING` through a `playbackResumed`.](https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/138)
