We’re pleased to introduce a convenient enhancement to your playlist management: the right-click context menu. This simple yet effective addition consolidates several useful features into one accessible menu, streamlining your playlist management experience.

Below, we’ll break down each feature and highlight the practical benefits of this new context menu. Let’s dive in and explore how it can make managing your playlists easier than ever.

A new home for existing features

Previously, to preview your audio or video file, you had to click the play button within each individual file. In an effort to streamline and standardize the process, we’ve consolidated these options into our new context menu, alongside convenient shortcuts and the rename feature too.

Duplicate playlist item

In our previous update, we introduced the feature allowing users to re-insert existing files by selecting the “Show queued files” checkbox from our manage library screen. To further enhance this functionality, we’ve made it even more convenient. Now, with the new duplicate feature in our context menu, you can effortlessly create a duplicate entry without duplicating the actual file. This means that while referencing the same file, it won’t consume any additional space on your storage.

Effortlessly Retrieve Your Files with Our Download Feature

Our new download feature allows you to easily access files that were initially uploaded for streaming. Whether you need to replace lost copies or revisit previous uploads, retrieving your files is now a seamless process. Enjoy the convenience of accessing your files whenever you need them.

Send files to top or bottom of the list

Managing long lists of files can be a challenge. Our new “Send to Top/Bottom” feature simplifies the process. Whether you’re organizing an extensive list of video or audio files, this tool makes it easy to move your files up or down the list. With just a click, you can efficiently manage your files and quickly access your essential items. Say goodbye to the hassle of manual organization and enjoy effortless file management with this feature.

Streamline Your Workflow with Comprehensive File Information

Effortlessly access essential details about each file, such as duration, size, and resolution. For those using stream storage share, quickly view which stream your file has been uploaded to. With all the information you need in one place, streamline your workflow and improve your efficiency.

Enhance Your Designs with New Layer Blend Modes

Our stream designer now features popular blend modes like multiply, screen, overlay, darken, and more. Experiment effortlessly with these blend modes to refine your designs. This update gives you greater control over your visuals, allowing you to create impressive effects and elevate your projects. Explore the latest enhancements and enhance your design capabilitie

Quality of life improvements

This update brings several quality of life improvements, including improved contrast for dark and light modes in various areas. Additionally, there is a new warning feature for individual files, which alerts users if the resolution of those files is larger than the stream resolution, potentially leading to poor stream performance.

Feel free to share your thoughts on the latest update: you can click the chat icon or send us an email. We value your feedback and are always happy to chat.
