# Changelog
+## v4.2.0-rc.1 (not released yet)
+
+### IMPORTANT NOTES
+
+ * **Important** You need to execute manually a migration script (can be executed after your upgrade, while your PeerTube instance is running) to generate small avatar miniatures:
+ * Classic installation: `cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && sudo -u peertube NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-4.2.js`
+ * Docker installation: `cd /var/www/peertube-docker && docker-compose exec -u peertube peertube node dist/scripts/migrations/peertube-4.2.js`
+ * REST API:
+ * `PUT /api/v1/videos/{id}/watching` is deprecated, use `POST /api/v1/videos/videos/{id}/views` instead: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html#operation/addView
+
+### Maintenance
+
+ * Add `client.videos.resumable_upload.max_chunk_size` config option [#4857](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/4857)
+ * Add `object_storage.upload_acl` config option [#4861](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/pull/4861)
+ * Add ability to set RTMP/RTMPS listening hostname using `rtmp.hostname`/`rtmps.hostname` and public RTMP/RTMPS hostname using `rtmp.public_hostname`/`rtmps.public_hostname`
+
+### Docker
+
+ * Use NodeJS 16 in PeerTube docker image: administrators may have to reinstall PeerTube plugins that use native NodeJS dependencies
+ * Support readonly tmp directory (if you want to use `tmp` directory as a volume)
+
+### Plugins/Themes/Embed API
+
+ * Theme:
+ * Add `--mainBackgroundHoverColor` and `--greySecondaryBackgroundColor` CSS variables
+ * Add server plugin hooks
+ * `filter:api.video-playlist.videos.list.params` and `filter:api.video-playlist.videos.list.result`
