Carousel 5.2.2 Release Notes ========================================================= * Bug 3063 | EDS rendering runs amok with long event names -In the Event Display System, Event names that exceed the field will be truncated and an ellipse (...) will be added to the end of the text. * Bug 3444 | Standard bulletins cannot be moved to Alert bulletins and vice versa -From a Standard bulletin you can click on the 'Copy or Move' icon to move it to the Alert bulletin list or vice versa. * Bug 3445 | Uploaded bulletin packages create two database references to the same media file or overwrites existing bulletins -New GUID's (Globally Unique Identifiers) are now created for a page when uploading a bulletin package. This eliminates the previous behavior of overwriting the existing file when the package is uploaded to the zone of it's origin. If the package is uploaded to a new zone, it will reference the correct media file in the database rather than creating a duplicate database entry. * Bug 3494 | A black border is placed around video within a bulletin -The video border style was changed to allow for seamless design. * Bug 3575 | Custom weather bulletins are not updating due to rogue file -The rogue files created by custom Weather bulletins are no longer queued for the Display Engine to download, therefore, allowing for regular weather updates. * Bug 3581 | Isolated server error when adding Web Page Snapshots -The installer now consistently distributes ATL71.dll to execute Web Page Snapshots. * Bug 3584 | Server application error when adding or editing large groups of bulletins -The new handling of Group bulletin additions and edits has eliminated the error and greatly increased the processing speed. * Bug 3589 | Clone tool import does not reflect zone name changes in the channel layout when zones overlap -Imported channels now display the correct zone name in the error message when zones overlap in the channel layout. * Bug 3613 | File name change corrupts channel package when importing using Clone Tool -Changes made to the file name of a channel package are now reflected in the zip file, allowing for successful importing via the Clone tool. * Bug 3614 | RSS bulletin skips stories in feed when character length exceeds RSS page -RSS bulletins will now paginate text that exceeds the character length of the RSS page. You will see '(cont.)' at the end of the paginated text and on the beginning of the next page. * Bug 3622 | User without proper access rights attemping to edit a group is returned to FrontDoor log in -Only users with the "Manage-All Bulletins" permission are allowed to edit a group (Ungroup, Edit, Copy or Move, and Delete). Group edit options are available from the "All bulletins" tab only. * Bug 3631 | Carousel Display Engine helper application unexpectedly quit and displayed an error message -Instead of displaying an error message the video will now resume play. * Bug 3635 | The ItemContent field of ATOM feeds do not display in RSS bulletins -RSS bulletins now display the ItemContent data of ATOM feeds instead of returning an empty feed. * Bug 3639 | RSS bulletins are not pacing themselves consistently based on the average number of words -RSS bulletins now count the average number of words in the feed and adjust the dwell time properly. * Bug 3643 | Occasionally RSS feeds are not updating -RSS bulletins with many items or dynamic content over slow links were not finishing their download (every 5 minutes), therefore, the Display Engine would begin to queue them up again. This behavior would result in some of the bulletins not getting updated. The service will now only re-render RSS bulletins if the content of the feed has changed.
