Resolved Defects List / Improvements
- [Bugfix] Rerun elements were not functioning as expected when the backup video was changed
- [Bugfix] Rerun elements did not show proper status in UI anymore
- [Bugfix] Ad-breaks imported via rundown.xml import used a milliseconds value for the ad-break duration as seconds
- [Bugfix] Stopping playback could lead to an exception, causing problems when playback was started again
- [Bugfix] Cancelling all downloads of external library items would lead to all new downloads just being queued but not executed
- [Bugfix] UI would show a Gap followed by another Gap after certain rundown modifications. Adjacent Gaps should always merge into one.
- [Bugfix] When an external library item finished downloading after the playhead already jumped over it, this could lead to an inconsistent state which in turn would lead to playback issues later on. Items that have not finished downloading when the playhead reaches their position will now be deleted.
- [Bugfix] Automatic conflict resolution for overlapping items could lead to an infinite loop when locked items were supposed to be deleted.

Known Issues and/or Limitations
| MPEG-TS Muxing Overhead |
Because of vbv-buffer compatibility the muxer overhead is set to 80%. This result of this is an overall increased bitrate of 80%, in regards to the configured video bitrate within LTN-Schedule transcoding settings. For example: 10MBit configured within the Schedule UI will result in 18MBit MPEG-TS muxed stream output on the actual MPEG-TS Output (SRT). RTMP and HLS Targets are not affected by that. LTN continues improving this component to reduce the overhead in upcoming updates. |
| Deletion of rundown elements | Deleting more than 2000 assets in the rundown at once does not work. |
| Missing meta-data | Inspector for rundown elements does not show all meta-data infos. |
| Library bulk delete problems | Deleting more than 500 Assets of the Library can slow down the system. |
| Starting Playback during an ad-break issue |
Starting Playback during an ad-break can cause the current video element to skip to the next one too early when the backup video is overall shorter than the ad-break itself. |
| Drag&Drop to set backup video on re-run element doesn't work |
When dropping a video from the library on a re-run element in the rundown it does not set the dropped video as backup video. It only lets the user drop the video before or behind the re-run element. |
| Bulk add ad-trigger |
When bulk-editing multiple rundown elements and trying to add an ad-trigger with a custom trigger-time, the trigger will not be added. The other presets (start / middle / end) still work. |
