The following updates will be included in the ZEN Master January 26, 2022 release.


Features



The following new features were implemented in this release:
• Insights view in the Intelligent Data Platform (IDP)
o Infrastructure Insights identify outliers among various operating parameters on
Zixi Broadcasters, such as memory and CPU, that impact video delivery.
o Channels Insights identify network anomalies on Sources and Targets that impact
video delivery.
• Management of Zixi Edge Compute (ZEC) endpoint devices. More details on ZEC devices
are coming soon.
• Dark mode across whole ZEN Master site
• Multi-edit for Tags and Event Profiles. The user can now multi-select objects and edit
the selected objects to overwrite, add, or remove Access Tags. The user can also multi-
select objects and update the Event configuration profile used for those objects.
• CDI & JPEG-XS Sources and Targets in AWS MediaConnect Flows
• Maintenance mode for Broadcasters that prevents new streams from being assigned to
that Broadcaster. This feature might be used in the following scenarios:
o Scheduling a Broadcaster to be taken out of service for maintenance or upgrade
o Adding a new version of a Broadcaster to a cluster for testing and validation prior
to enabling production usage
o Adding a Broadcaster to a cluster where necessary configurations on the
Broadcaster, such as firewall setup, are still pending
• Primary/Backup Sources on Pass-through Channels with Source preference selection on
Targets

The following additional improvements were implemented in this release:
• Updated Transcoding Channel output paths on HLS origin servers to remain constant
even when moving the Channel between Broadcasters or Clusters

Broadcasters
• Added alert on missing CEA-608/708 closed captions on Sources
