Three new custom design features made for news services

At Accedo One, we recognize the importance of immediacy and clarity in news delivery. To better support news related platforms, we have introduced three new custom design features that enhance real-time reporting. 
‍

Feature 1: Real-time publishing indicator

This feature enables publishers to display real-time publishing indicators - i.e. display how long ago a video was posted - directly on the video thumbnail for a news piece. This enhancement reinforces the immediacy of breaking news, keeping content fresh and audiences informed. 
‍

Feature 2: Program duration display 

With program duration display, viewers can instantly see how long a news clip, segment, or special report lasts. Whether it’s a quick 2-minute update or an in-depth 30-minute analysis, this feature provides upfront information on how much time it will take to watch a video. 
‍

Feature 3: Title below thumbnails 

Typically, a video’s title is shown on top of the thumbnail image - which works well for movies and shows. However - as video names for news clips can be rather long (as they are very descriptive), it makes for a better user interface to display these captions below the thumbnails.

Does your service feature news clips, and are you looking to enhance your user experience with these features?  Speak to us (or for existing customers contact your Customer Success Manager), and we will be happy to share more details.
