Android Blynk App v 2.27.13 breaks video widget. 2.27.12 still works

Solved
1

After upgrading to the latest Blynk App on Android (version 2.27.13 on Mar 24, 2020) the video streaming widget stopped streaming mjpg video generated by mjpg-streamer.

After downgrading to version 2.27.12 everything works again, that’s how I know it’s is most probably not a streamer issue).

Here some technical details if you want to replicate:

Running latest blynk server on Rpi.

Widget affected is the video streamer.

The video source is a mjpg-streamer compiled based on this repo: https://github.com/meinside/rpi-mjpg-streamer running at 15 FPS 640x480

Version 2.27.12 works, 2.27.13 does not.

*** Please do not refer me to the Beta channel - the stock app updates should work ***
