Change pending friends invitations to collapse into a single friends list entry if there are more than 5 in total
Fix Web/Friends footer buttons not showing in some cases where they were functional and should be shown in the footer
Fix a case where after accepting a friend invite on the web it’s state in Big Pictures friends list would only be partially updated and it would still indicate it was an invite
Improved Big Picture movie audio / video synchronization along with some general video playback improvements.
Improved performance in some cases with the Big Picture window out-of-focus/in-game. The biggest gain here is on Linux, but all platforms should see some benefit.
Fixed focus when entering the quit menu sometimes not being on the first item
Fixed Steamworks games that utilize the Daisy Wheel for text entry in Big Picture not showing it successfully if they were launched via a launcher or other multi-process scenario
Improved movie playback support and support for animated gifs
