MetaService 1.2: What's New
New features added since MetaService 1.1: *We are now publishing streams (in MediaStreams) that will work across different platforms and devices. On enabled webcasts we're offering as many as 7 different streams. *WebcastSearch has been expanded and improved: **You can now set the sorting on your WebcastSearch queries. **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 property called ProfileId has been added to both Webcast and WebcastSummary. This identifies the Profile on which a Webcast was based when it was initially created. *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. Breaking changes: * WebcastSearch has a new input parameter called "Order", which let's you set sorting on your results. This parameter is currently not optional, which will make existing WebcastSearch implementations fall over. Other then that, all your existing code should remain functional. Please note that upgrading to the latest version of the MetaService is not required, older versions remain available.
