We completely revamped our Sessions editor in Studio to make it easier to use, clarify all the session formats we provide, and have a smoother session creation/edition path.

Session creation is now much easier, thanks to new format list options when creating one.

Depending on the format chosen, the pop-up window will ask you to upload a video, refer a video URL, etc. The creation path is now much more guided.

Once the session is created, all the session format settings are collected in a new tab “Format & video” which allows you to focus only on this information.

The session creator/editor layout has been turned into a two-column layout to make the navigation and comprehension easier.

We also added alert messages while updating and changing the session format. This way, potential mistakes are reduced:

Also, trying to update any session date (the session date itself or the streaming availability date), a brand new pop-up window will open that gathers all the date parameters to help make those changes easier:

In the Sessions list in Studio, we also added an indicator next to the session format value in the “Format” column with additional information.

This way:

• For an on-demand session, you can know whether it is:
  • A video file
  • An embedded video
• For a livestream session, you can know whether it is:
  • An RTMP
  • A Backstage Session
  • An embedded video
• For a prerecorded session, you can know whether it is:
  • A video file
  • An embedded  video
