Release Notes

Projects Page

• A new “Projects” icon in the side-bar has been added. Clicking this icon takes you to the Projects page. On the Projects page you can organize your videos into Projects.
• A Project is intended to represent a collection of videos whose moments all share some common goal. For example, maybe you are making a compilation video of clips from all the VODs from last month – you can organize those VODs into a Project in order to maintain a clear workspace.
• You can click Add Videos to open up a dialog where you can select which videos to add.
  • Use the search bar to find videos by title, or use the category filter drop down to only see videos in a certain category.
  • After selecting a video to add, you can choose whether or not to also import the video’s existing moments into the Project.
  • A video can belong to multiple Projects.
• You can see the videos in your Project in the Videos tab.
  • Here you can also remove videos by hovering over a video and clicking Remove.
• In the moments tab you can see the collection of moments you have added to the Project.
  • Clicking Add Moment opens up a dialog that lets you select moments to add from the videos in the Project.
• Projects is an experimental feature and will undergo significant additional feature development. We decided to release it in its current state to get feedback from users as we continue to improve it.

Video Transcript Redesign

• Reduced the footprint of each transcript line.
  • Each transcript line is now a single line of text with its corresponding start time. The current transcript line is highlighted, and the upcoming transcript line is shadowed.
  • Our aim is to enable users to get a broader view of where they are in the transcript. The previous transcript design made poor use of vertical space, making it difficult to get one’s bearings at a glance.
• Transcript lines in search results are now highlighted as they are spoken.
  • Before, when searching the transcript, it was easy to get lost in the search results since spoken line highlighting wasn’t supported during search.
  • This change should make it easier for users to follow along as they navigate between search results during playback.
• Improved transcript search.
  • Transcript search now is “fuzzy”, meaning along with exact matches it should now also return partial matches, matches that account for spelling errors, and matches by sound (e.g., “owner” matching “oner”).
  • Matches are classified as “strong match” or “weak match”. Strong matches (indicated in the UI with bright yellow) are those that are near-exact, while weak matches (indicated with dark yellow) are matches that are by sound, or include many spelling errors.
