Release 8.12 28/10/2024
We’re pleased to release the 8.12 version of the Blue Billywig Online Video Platform.
Content protection for Channels
We’ve extended our support for content protection to Channels. If you have a Channel that you don’t want to be accessible outside of a specific domain, country or other supported policy type, you can now easily apply the correct policy from within the Channel settings.
Improved Channel search
We’ve improved our Channel search to provide your viewers with even better results. The results are now ordered with the best hits on top, followed by suggested results that do not quite match your search query, but might still be relevant.
Additionally, we now also show a visual indication of the part of the title or description that matched your search query.
