Additional Graphics Options 📺

Improvement 🛠️
New Feature 🌟

The latest ABSolute update has been released 🥳

In this version we bring you two new graphics options!

 

Parental Rating on Promos

You can now add Parental Rating bugs onto promos. The rules for the graphic can be configured in Graphics Management, same as the Parental Rating bug for programmes.

ABSolute will then assign a Parental Rating to the promos in your playlists by taking the rating of the programme they are linked to.

Product Placement Bug

To conform with Ofcom regulations, we now offer a 3 second Product Placement bug scheduled at the start and end of each segment of episodes containing Product Placement. All you'd need to do is tick the 'Has Product Placement' checkbox on the episode master and ABSolute will populate the graphic for you.

Here's a look at how it'll appear on the Graphics Report after exporting your playlist.

All the best,
