Product updates: Magic Links, Audit Logs and more...

15 March 2024 - Last updated 18 September 2024

Dear Customers,

Announcing our latest product updates and improvements from our recent development sprint. Your insights are incredibly valuable to us, so don't hesitate to ask any questions or if you need assistance.




Magic Links

We've added a long-awaited feature to simplify content sharing: Magic Links.

With Magic Links, you can easily create a temporary link to a published post, an event, or a screener and email it to a selected recipient. You can also specify the duration for which the link remains valid.

Created and still valid, links can be revoked prematurely if necessary.

 

 

Statistics for opened emails, viewed posts, etc., originating from Magic Links are presented anonymously yet clearly for you as admins.

 

Audit logs in admin

Another feature from the wish list that has become a reality is access to Audit Logs in the admin interface.

Audit logs record the occurrence of an event, its time, and the responsible user. This feature, made available for posts, events, and pages in the Media Center and Mediabank and assets in the Screening Room, can be accessed via the drop-down menu under "Record of actions".




Video hero in Websites


In Websites, we have now enabled the addition of a video hero. The system has been adjusted to maintain the original video's aspect ratio, allowing for customization in line with your page design. Once published, the video will automatically start and loop each time its segment in the carousel is loaded. The video player lacks controls, as the concept of a video hero is more design-oriented. 



Description fallback in Media Center


We've introduced a fallback for local episode descriptions in the Media Center. If a local episode description is missing, we first check for a local season description, and as a last resort, a local series description is used. This approach helps fill information gaps, making the program pages in the Media Center more complete.

We do not fall back from local to original descriptions to avoid mixing languages on a page.


Image data

Another adjustment in the Media Center is adding the option to automatically display the photographer and/or copyright information for post posters.

We enable this feature, so if you're interested, please feel free to reach out, and we will be happy to assist you with it.



Some other minor tweaks and bug fixes 



  • Fixed some issues with Clip Creator, including incorrect display of transcoding progress and failure to create thumbnails.
  • Fixed a bug that caused dates to be displayed incorrectly in the statistics for the Screening Room.
