IMPROVED PREVIEW FUNCTIONALITY
 

Snapshot Images During Preview

When URL content is set as live, the preview will also reflect that by presenting the URL in an iframe. This dynamic preview gives users a live view of their published content, accurately reflecting its current state.

ENHANCED SCHEDULING DISPLAY

Users can now view all individual content scheduling of media files. 

Hover Functionality 
When hovering above the items of the calendar icon, all schedules for that file will be displayed.

Thumbnails in playlist creation will display a red border if their aspect ratio doesn't match the layout, providing clear visual feedback.

Bug Fixes
 

NO SCROLLBAR WAS AVAILABLE WHEN REACHING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TARGETED GROUPS IN THE PLAYLIST CREATION VIEW.

If a playlist had many targeted groups (10+), the user couldn’t see all groups or the buttons below and no scrollbar appeared. It was solved by adding a scrollbar.

NOT ABLE TO REMOVE THE ADDRESS DETAILS OF A PLAYER FROM PLAYER SETTING

Trying to remove the address of a player and save the changes but the details remain visible.

WHEN EDITING THE POWER SCHEDULE, THE TARGETED LOCATION IN THE SPECIAL DAY GROUP DISAPPEARS

All special day configuration from Power schedules was removed when any modification was made to the Power schedule.

SORT BY OPTION DO NOT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE PLAYER LIST IN THE PLAYER VIEW

Users could change the player sorting, but it didn’t update the list.

PLAYLIST LAYOUT REQUIRES THAT THE USER SELECT THE AREA FROM THE LAYOUT EVEN LAYOUT HAS ONLY ONE AREA

When swapping layout from the default “Landscape 16:9” to another layout the new available areas were not automatically updated, if proceeding without selecting any area the new playlist would still target “Landscape 16:9” main area. Solved by an auto selecting the first Area in the list when swapping layout.
