v1.7.2

Added

• AwaitStartSignal option for web egress (if true, it will not start until your website logs START_RECORDING)

Fixed

• New jitter buffer to help with track/track composite latency issues
• Updated track synchronizers to help with a/v sync issues
• Track websocket egress will send pings to keep websocket connection alive
• An instance will not schedule above 80% CPU (maxing out CPU causes issues)
• An instance will now accept a request if it's idle and requirement == total CPUs (for example, room_composite_cost = 4 and your pods have 4 CPU)

Changed

• Redacted stream keys in logs will show the starting and ending characters so they can be identified
