+## 2.6.13 - 2026-08-08
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The player bundle now keeps the browser-only QR export dependencies lazy-loaded, so the remote player image no longer needs `puppeteer-core` or `@sparticuz/chromium` at startup.
+- Remote player startup sync now falls back to `WEB_INTERNAL_URL` when it is configured, which avoids 404s when the bridge is not the correct sync target.
+- The player startup sync and media-write info logs were removed to keep normal remote-player operation quieter.
+
 ## 2.6.12 - 2026-08-08
