Updates

Short notes on new milestones and platform changes.

The remote has now been added to embedded video, so you can always give your viewers extra options, like captions and different audio tracks. More features are coming to the remote, both on site and for embedded videos.

When viewing videos, we now have a dark player / light player that can be changed on the remote (top). Default is the dark player.

Today we finalised the new domain restriction as part of the creator plan. if you only want your videos to be seen at your own blog / website / community, you can lock that down by setting up Private share (link only).

EBU STL has been added to Long Play's caption playback capabilities along with SRT.

Please let us know if you have any issues with either as we're keen to continue to improve and grow the service.

We've been working hard behind the scenes to bring you the 'remote'. We're keeping the video player simple with minimal controls. The remote, which is detached from the player, will give you all the extra features you'd expect. Control for closed captions, audio tracks, playback speed etc.

We're planning to introduce more features to the remote in the future.

Subscription (Creator plan) is now live.

If you think you need some more resources, view the plans page to see what you get for a low monthly cost View Plans.

We've been working hard to add in closed captions and extra audio tracks (so people can add other languages or even director commentary).

The roll out has been successful, but as always if you see anything odd, please let us know.

Thanks to users for the feedback you have provided, we are continuing to update the site and have some big plans to bring to life in the next few days.

Don't forget if you see a weird issue, please let us know...
