Features

• Added keyboard shortcuts to QC Player; click the gear icon at the top right to set hotkeys for Play/Pause, Previous/Next Frame, and Scrub 1 second forward/back.
• Added Summary section to Media Info tab in QC Player to display common file format information and track details
• Added check for valid tags on job submission (web console only). On job submission, job and task tags will be checked against enabled computing groups to ensure that the job can complete. If tags are found that do not match a computing group (or matching a disabled group), a warning dialogue will appear. This change does not affect job submissions via API.
• Changing the product version for a computing group will now automatically trigger any instances currently running in that group to terminate when they have finished any currently-running tasks. This will force new instances to start with the newly-selected product version.
• Updated Dolby Audio Encoder version
• Added support for specifying sample_format for elementary PCM audio targets
• Added support for discrete audio and discrete video playback via live preview API
• Create Job page now uses Templates by default. Transcode Presets and Copy jobs are still available via the Job Type dropdown menu.
