==========
This release updates socket.io to version 1.4.0. The updates to socket.io
include a few security-related fixes, so please be sure to run `npm install`
to ensure the updated version is installed before restarting your CyTube server.

==========
In order to support future clustering support, the legacy `/sioconfig`
endpoint is being deprecated. Instead, you should make a request to
`/socketconfig/<channel name>.json`. See [the
documentation](docs/socketconfig.md) for more information.

==========
* The channel data storage system has been refactored a bit. For
compatibility, the default remains to store JSON objects for each channel in
the `chandump` folder, however there is now also the option of storing
channel data in the database. You can take advantage of this by setting
`channel-storage: type: 'database'` in your `config.yaml`.
- In order to migrate existing channel data from the `chandump` files to the
database, run `node lib/channel-storage/migrate.js`.
* The database storage method uses foreign keys to associate the channel data
with the corresponding row in the `channels` table. This requires that the
tables be stored using the InnoDB engine rather than MyISAM. If your CyTube
tables defaulted to MyISAM, you can fix them by running
```sql
ALTER TABLE `channels` ENGINE = InnoDB;
```

==========
* CyTube is now transpiled with [babel] to allow the use of ES6/ES2015
features. All source files have been moved from `lib` to `src`.
* Running `npm install` or `npm run postinstall` will prompt you to
build from `src` to `lib`.
* Running `npm run build-server` will run the build script without any
prompts.
* After updating with `git pull`, you should run `npm install` or `npm run
build-server` in order to rebuild after the changes.

==========
* CyTube now supports subtitles for Google Drive videos. In order to take
advantage of this, you must upgrade mediaquery by running `npm install
cytube/mediaquery`. Subtitles are cached in the google-drive-subtitles
folder.

==========
* CyTube and CyTube/mediaquery have both been updated to use
calzoneman/status-message-polyfill to polyfill res.statusMessage on older
versions of node (e.g., v0.10). After pulling, run `npm install` to update
this dependency. This fixes an issue where HTTP status messages from
mediaquery were reported as `undefined`, and removes the need for manually
looking up status messages in `lib/ffmpeg.js`.

==========
* As part of the video player rewrite, Google Drive and Google+ metadata
lookups are now offloaded to CyTube/mediaquery. After pulling the new
changes, run `npm install` or `npm update` to update the mediaquery
dependency.
* `www/js/player.js` is now built from the CoffeeScript source files in the
`player/` directory. Instead of modifying it directly, modify the relevant
player implementations in `player/` and run `npm run build-player` (or `node
build-player.js`) to generate `www/js/player.js`.
* Also as part of the video player rewrite, the schema for custom embeds
changed so any custom embeds stored in the `channel_libraries` table need to
be updated. The automatic upgrade script will convert any custom embeds
that are parseable (i.e., not truncated by the width of the `id` field using
the old format) and will delete the rest (you may see a lot of WARNING:
unable to convert xxx messages-- this is normal). Custom embeds in channel
playlists in the chandumps will be converted when the channel is loaded.
