Executive summary
In this release (2.27), we continue to maintain our 3-week release velocity, in order to support our clients, Ops teams and sales requests.
In this release, we have implemented key client requests for PSA, Viacom and ISL that have created capabilities to create improved ‘blended’ highlights, handle multi-track audio feeds, and manage download restrictions.
We have also added a new transition for highlight creation, as well as the capability to assign ratings to highlights and web stories.
Apart from these major features, we have also handled a range of minor enhancements/fixes to improve Ops workflows.
I would like to thank the engineering (dev/QA), AI and program teams for all their efforts and acknowledge the continued guidance from our leadership in making our releases successful.
