Обновленное отображение настроек контента в зоне трансляции/en

Situation Description

The SmartPlayer platform is constantly evolving and updating. In this article, users can familiarize themselves with the design changes in the "Broadcasts" section, specifically the block related to content settings. This information will help users get accustomed to the new display of elements and the styling in the "Broadcasts" section.

Principle of Operation

To try out the new design of the "Broadcasts" section, users will first need to enable it in their personal account. This can be done through the "Settings" section of the personal account by navigating to the "Broadcast Editor" category. By default, this category is set to display broadcast parameters as a dropdown list. However, users can now change the display to show it as separate tabs in the toolbar.

Example of the old and new toolbar design for content settings

To apply the new design and view content settings as tabs, the user needs to log in to their personal account and navigate to the "Settings" section.

The next step is to select the "Broadcast Editor" category from the list of settings.

Within the category, the user needs to switch the toolbar display parameter from "Dropdown List" to "Tabs."

After doing this, when creating a broadcast with content, the user will see the changes in the toolbar and will be able to interact with content settings displayed as tabs more easily.

After switching the display mode in the settings, the user needs to create a broadcast, highlight a zone, and select the content they want to play on the device. Once the content is moved to the zone, the user needs to click on the content in the zone to open the toolbar with content settings in the broadcast. This toolbar will have three main settings blocks available:

1. Zone
