Fixed

  • [CORE-25891] Fixed a rare failure to upload Player logs when requested by a Broadsign Services representative.

Added

  • [CORE-18984] Broadsign Control now allows you to control the screen's volume via RS-232 by checking the device's current volume and setting it to a specific volume if it's within certain ranges. This can be used to define a minimum and maximum volume for the screen. For more information, see Volume Thresholds.

Fixed

  • [CORE-26161] Fixed an issue where updated opening hours were not applied until Broadsign Control Player restarted.

Fixed

  • [CORE-26070] Fixed an issue where Broadsign Control Player's private IP in the player's service panel might be wrong when having several network interfaces.

Fixed

  • [CORE-26001] / [CORE-26225] / [CORE-26226] / [CORE-26252] / [CORE-26281] Fixed enforce resolution and enforce orientation when using multiple monitors in undedicated mode.

  • [CORE-25742] Fixed an issue causing player dedication to break when upgrading from a 32-bit version to a 64-bit version on Windows over Broadsign-managed upgrade channels. This regression was corrected to return to the original expected behaviour: when upgrading to a new version of Broadsign Control Player, the installer will install in the previous installation's folder by default, ensuring that the player remains dedicated despite the change in bit architecture. Note that manual upgrades will still require the player to be re-dedicated.

  • [CORE-25715] Fixed issue where Broadsign Control Player would be unable to report POPs if over 4000 POPs that had been reported to Broadsign Control services had not been registered as reported in the player's local database.
