DoohPlaybackService Add-on Version 2.8.0 - 2.8.1

New features

With this version, we’ve implemented the following new features:

Live tags and impressions enhancements

We’ve made improvements to live tag handling and impressions.

Linux ARM64 support

As of this version, linux-arm64 architecture is supported.

Logging improvements

We’ve enhanced debug logging throughout the application. It’s now displayed whether debug logging is activated and we’ve removed redundant or unnecessary logging statements.

Resolved issues

• We’ve fixed an issue where live tags were bypassing the cooldown mechanism.

DoohPlaybackService Add-on Version 2.7.3

New features

With this version, we’ve implemented the following new features:

Logging enhancements

We’ve improved logging messages for clarity and replaced certain log separators for consistency.

Resolved issues

• We’ve fixed issues where the calculation of the last target playback could be stuck on previous days and adjusted reference times to ensure accurate scheduling. In addition, we’ve added debug logging for better visibility into playback calculations.

• To fix the live tag replacement logic, they can now be replaced by null or another spot when appropriate. This prevents non-live tags from being incorrectly placed due to recalculations, while ensuring that calculation of the last target playback remains consistent.

Added ScreenNr for screen-specific SSP categories

We’ve added the ScreenNr to support screen-specific SSP categories. This enhances targeting capabilities for multi-screen setups and improves compatibility with external SSPs.

Playback logic enhancements

• SoV (Share of Voice): ensures equitable distribution of ad playtime among different advertisers based on agreed shares.

• Playback: manages scheduling and execution of ad content playback.

• Frequency: controls how often a particular ad runs within a given time frame.

• Live Tags: allow dynamic content changes based on real-time data or triggers.
