New Features and Enhancements

General

  • Support for transparent content updates in a sign, allowing the App to sync changes from the server without reloading the App and interrupting current playback, for the following conditions:

    • Content changes made on the following widgets that are currently on screen.

      • Remote Control
      • Weather
      • Event Calendar
      • RSS Viewer
      • RSS Ticker
      • Text Ticker
      • Table Listing
      • Media Container

    • Linking media zones (add or remove linked media zones).

    • Changing media zone schedules.

    • Changing content properties such as schedule, tagging, or aspect ratio.

    • Changing player properties.

    • Limitation: If changes are made to the widget properties as below, the app reloads with the loading icon displayed:

      • widget properties are added or removed from the same or different layout.
      • widget properties are edited to change font type or color.

  • Improved UI in the Channel Info window:

    • when content is selected on touch based devices, the content thumbnails do not move.
    • when content is selected via a remote control, the content thumbnail moves due to pagination.

  • The EPG channel preview display size has been changed to 16:9 to improve visualization.

  • Interactive mode hotspot size has been increased to improve usability.

  • Event start dates on the Calendar widget are displayed correctly.

Resolved Escalations

  • AE-3236 - The “AND” query statement in the Table Listing widget is ignored on BrightSign players.
  • AE-3267 - Plain text does not load and display on a Chromebox device on startup.
  • AE-3268 - The Media Container widget selects the first content in the second page, while content on the first page is not selected.
