August 2007 mpsPresent updates
More Player Development Tools!
We've made some great additions to the mpsPresent Player Designer and Player Development Kit (PDK) 2.0. These updates will add even more features and usability to your broadband players.
Support for Windows Media format video:
- It's not a Flash-only world; if your content is in Windows Media format, you can specify that your content run only in Windows Media. If you have media in both Flash and Windows Media formats, simply set up a separate feed for each.
Add a search control to your player:
- On the Display tab, you can add a search control so users can filter by keywords, author, title, description, or transcript. If you're building players with the PDK 2.0, add search capability with a FlashVar control.
New sharing features:
- Use new "Allow e-mail," "Allow get link," and "Send Email" options on the Display tab in the Player Designer. If you want to get fancy, you can customize the layout position of these controls in the PDK.
DoubleClick DART support:
- DART advertising integration includes new support for mid-roll ads.
Ratings:
- Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) ratings (G, PG, R, etc.) you apply to media objects now appear in the media RSS that is generated by the Feeds Service.
Custom clip ordering:
- In addition to sorting your media clips on metadata fields, you can now set any sort order you want and show this custom-ordered list in your player.
You can start using the Player Designer updates right away—simply log in to the mps console and see what's new. If you're using the PDK 1.5 or 1.9, log in to our Customer Support portal to get the PDK 2.0 Migration Guide and update your player.
