YuJa Enterprise Video Platform Update – October 2024

We have successfully pushed an update to all Enterprise Video Platform instances residing in the European Union, Australia, the Middle East, Canada, and Asia. The United States geographic zone will be updated later this week. The highlights for this update include a redesigned Accessibility dashboard, the option to bulk archive courses, a redesigned My Account, more in-depth activity tracking for courses, the Multi-Select metadata type, and more.

1. Redesigned Accessibility Dashboard with the Admin Panel
   The Accessibility Dashboard has been redesigned from the ground up to provide actionable insights into video accessibility within the enterprise. New capabilities include:
   • Summary Cards highlighting key aspects of video accessibility.
   • Filterable tables detailing On-Demand and Live ASR Captioning Activity, Pending Requests, and Accessibility Settings.
   • Visibility on use of Generative AI capabilities in enhancing accessibility.
     

   

2. Bulk Archive or Restore Courses in Courses & Groups
   If you’re an admin or an instructor managing dozens or even thousands of courses on the Video Platform, you can now Bulk Archive and Bulk Restore multiple courses.
   
3. Redesigned My Account, Including Tab Unification, Workflow Improvements, and Refreshed Design
   The My Account page has been refreshed with a new design, consolidating multiple sections into a few easy-to-navigate pages.
   • New Configurations Page to Manage Personal Settings – The new Configurations page lets you manage your settings for notifications, downloads, integrations, and the media player in one place.
   • Upgraded Recycle Bin and Watch History Pages With a New Interface – The Recycle Bin and Watch History pages have been updated with our new branding, making it easier to view deleted content or videos you’ve previously watched.
   • Improved Accessibility – A number of screens with overlays have been re-designed to be more screen-reader and keyboard-navigation friendly.

   

4. In-Depth Activity Tracking for Courses
   The Activity panel now offers enhanced audit log tracking for course channel management, allowing you to see whether a course was successfully copied or if any errors were encountered.
   
5. New Set of APIs for NL-LOM Metadata Harvesting
   As an administrator, you can now use our NL-LOM APIs for your metadata harvesting, a standardized format designed for educational institutions in the Netherlands to ensure consistency in managing resources.
6. New Metadata Type – Multi-Select
   The new Multi-Select metadata type allows you to create a list of values and choose one or more to apply to your content.
7. Improved the Underlying Infrastructure of Our Generative AI Capabilities for Multi-Language Audio Dubbing
   You can now automatically generate more precise audio tracks for videos originally in English with our improved multi-language dubbing capabilities. Simply choose from over 25 languages to dub your video, allowing your viewers to select their preferred listening experience.
   
8. Usability Improvement in Platform-Level Settings with Clearer Explanations of Each Option
   With increased settings and configurations, we have introduced a new user interface style to explain each of the options more clearly.
   
9. Faster Processing Speeds for Generating Content Reports
   Previously, generating a Content report may have taken almost two minutes for results to appear. Now, you can expect results to appear in under a minute.
