Axinom releases new features and updates for Mosaic and all included service on a regular base. Here is a summary over the last two weeks.

Latest releases:

  • User Service R122
  • Video Service R122
  • DRM Key Service 1.21.4

User Service

The profileData field of the UserProfile GQL type in Mosaic User Service is now deprecated. If you intend to store user-specific data, please use the Mosaic Personalization Service API.

Please refer to Planned Deprecations page to see the timeline when the field will be removed.

See full release notes.

Video Service

With this update, it is now possible for users to initiate encoding jobs from the same source more than once. This enables greater flexibility in managing different output needs from a single source.

The Video Details station now includes a New Encoding action that is a shortcut to navigate users directly to the New Video station with the same Processing Profile (and the Source Location) pre-filled, as videos now store a reference to the processing profile used during encoding. You may maintain different Processing Profiles for different use-cases and use them with this new feature to better manage different output needs.

Additionally, the Retry Encoding button (formerly labeled "Re-Encoding") remains available for use when an encoding job fails. This allows users to modify the processing profile if needed and re-attempt the encoding without creating a new video item.

DRM Key Service 1.21.4

  • Added OmitHlsMasterPlaylistData query parameter to the Harmonic/V2 endpoint. If set to true, the <HLSSignalingData playlist="master"> element will be omitted from the CPIX response. Default is false.  Refer to Harmonic document for further details.
