New features added since MetaService 1.1:

  • WebcastSearch has been expanded and improved:
    • WebcastSortOrder lets you control the order of the results retrieved from WebcastSearch.
    • You can now search for CustomerCode, as well as CustomerName
    • Overall performance of WebcastSearch has dramatically improved (although previous versions of the MetaService receive this benefit as well)

Additions to the data model:

  • Both WebcastSummary and Webcast have received a new property called Revision. This can be used to monitor changes in a Webcast, because every time a change is made to a Webcast, the Revision is updated.
  • A completely new data item has been added to join Slides, Speakers and Annotations : GenericItems. A GenericItem behaves very similar to, say a slide, but it can contain custom data. Use it for adding features that a Player might not currently have. Subtitling is a good example.
  • Although this doesn't add to the data model in any way, the MetaService now publishes live and on demand streams in several different formats, if they are available.

Changes to the data model:

  • None, there are only additions. This should in most cases be non-breaking.
