New Broadcast Plugin with flexible lineups!!!
One of the most significant upgrades in this release affects MediaSilo's web broadcast capabilities. Users can now create reusable lineups that
contain lists of video clips. Lineups can be added to channels, enabling a channel to contain multiple content categories (lineups).
Existing channels are not affected, however, MediaSilo users currently using channels should be aware that new embed code should be placed on web pages to ensure
forward compatibility.
