23.1 - January 30th, 2023 Release
October 7th, 2023 by Aidan Chiu
Major New Features
- Added setting defaults for device. If a device is paired or provisioned it will take these defaults as its settings. This has lower priority than provisioning parameters that overlap. (DEV-4176)
- Added the ability to configure a webhook for devices. If set this will send a copy of all device logs, playbacks and campaign views directly to this URL as a POST. This will let you directly process all your events. (DEV-4177)
- Partial upgrade of some back-end database drivers. Some fields will appear as NULL instead of empty strings in API responses. This also fixed a bug with handling of device.serial_commands that was allowing for any type of data to be sent (it must be an object). (DEV-3590)
Other New Features
- Track total playtimes on a per device basis for the past 30 days per content type. To see this go to a Device -> Info -> Total Play Times (30D) (DEV-4136)
- Changed the app.telemetrytv.com preview of a Playlist Page to be a fixed resolution of 1920x1080 (or reverse for portrait) and scaled appropriately so the preview will exactly reflect what a 1080p screen will see. This will allow you to see things such as custom HTML that are not responsive more accurately with what is being shown in the preview. This does not impact custom aspect ratios. (DEV-4298)
- Improved notification of play failure handling. Email notifications deprecated, existing email notifications continue to serve. Added option to define time threshold for notifications and made handling more accurate. (DEV-4203)
- New version of TelemetryOS install ISO image available. Updated kernel to 5.5*. Improved security for ssh service. (DEV-4300)
- When accounts expire show a more user friendly interface for continuing a subscription. Free account plan is deprecated. (DEV-4163)
- Allow for changing billing methods from credit card to invoiced. (DEV-3905)
- More permissive with URL special character handling in the Webpage App (DEV-4226)
- Added an optional back button for the website app also supported in kiosk mode applications. (DEV-4158)

- Metrics app display improvements. (DEV-4153)
- Added Desktop App version to the about screen (DEV-4232)
