| # [Jul 1st 2024] Cobalt 25.LTS.1 Release Candidate | ||
|
|
||
| ## [Cobalt 25.lts.1 Release](https://developers.google.com/youtube/devices/living-room/cobalt/cobalt-evergreen-version-table) | ||
|
|
||
| The Cobalt team is thrilled to announce the RC (Release Candidate) of [Cobalt 25 | ||
| LTS 1](https://github.com/youtube/cobalt/releases/tag/25.lts.1) ! | ||
|
|
||
| Evergreen binaries are available on GitHub | ||
| ([5.1.2](https://github.com/youtube/cobalt/releases/tag/25.lts.1)) | ||
|
|
||
| Cobalt 25 LTS includes Starboard API version 16 for porters and its Stable | ||
| release version will support all features that are required for 2025 YouTube | ||
| Certification. The code is available at Cobalt open source | ||
| [25.lts.1+](https://github.com/youtube/cobalt/releases/tag/25.lts.1) branch. | ||
| Read | ||
| [branching](https://github.com/youtube/cobalt/blob/25.lts.1/cobalt/doc/branching.md) | ||
| / | ||
| [versioning](https://github.com/youtube/cobalt/blob/25.lts.1/cobalt/doc/versioning.md) | ||
| documents for more information. | ||
|
|
||
| There are newly implemented features, improvements, and simplified code. We have | ||
| outlined the changelist below with a brief description of Cobalt 25 LTS and | ||
| Starboard 16 changes. | ||
|
|
||
| IMPORTANT NOTE: As this version is a RC (Release Candidate), the code is | ||
| subject to change while we expect to have no more Starboard API changes. | ||
| **This is ready for integration and we STRONGLY RECOMMEND you start integration | ||
| of this Cobalt 25 LTS RC on your respective platforms early and report issues | ||
| ASAP** so there is ample time to investigate and resolve any detected issues | ||
| before Cobalt 25 LTS Stable Release later this year. | ||
|
|
||
| The Evergreen static version channels command (`co 25lts1`) can be used to | ||
| update builds to the `25.LTS.1` Cobalt version for testing by following the | ||
| steps provided | ||
| [here](https://developers.google.com/youtube/devices/living-room/cobalt/cobalt-evergreen-faq). | ||
