Brid.TV Platform Update 6.5.5. — Streamlined Ad Stack Setup, Player Templates, and More

platform update 6.5.5.

In our last platform update, we announced a new and improved live streaming service with time-shift playback and improved stream quality. Since then, our devs have been working hard to bring publishers more exciting new features.

Streamlined Ad Stack Setup

We have also created a completely new way to manage ads inside the platform. Now, publishers will be able to:

  • Create and manage different ad sources
  • Set up custom ad schedules
  • Apply ad schedules and update any player in just a couple of clicks

We have been working hard on making ad stack management as quick and simple as possible, and this update is just the latest in our efforts to ensure publishers save time, energy, and money on ad ops.

Player Templates

We also came up with a player template system. This will allow publishers to easily create several custom player setups and use them across the network of websites.
