Support Applications v6 - Version History

v6.9.1 18th May 2026

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Media Import: Importing audio files that are more then 3 hours in duration could cause Myriad to exit. You should still avoid importing files this large as the built in editor cannot full edit the item.

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Outputs:

• Icecast: The Icecast template has been updated to "Artist - TItle" instead of the previous " Song by Artist" to bring it in line with modern ordering standards as expected by icecast based platforms including Live365. This will NOT affect any existing outputs, but any NEW Icecast outputs will have this format by default. Myriad OCP Pro users can edit this format if they do need to use a different string format.
• The Media Site 'TMS Digital' CMS: There is a new built in OCP output template for The Media Site's new CMS platform. Your Station Enabler will require OCP Pro to be able to add in this custom output.

New Tags:

• There are new Tags available to easily get the Category, Type, Gender and Era of the underlying Media item, including both Categories if set:
  • <OCP_NOW_MEDIA CATEGORYNAME1>, <OCP_NOW_MEDIA CATEGORYNAME2>, <OCP_NOW_MEDIA CATEGORYNAMES>
  • <OCP_NOW_MEDIA TYPENAME>
  • <OCP_NOW_MEDIA GENDERNAME>
  • <OCP_NOW_MEDIA ERANAME>
• The Format Creator has been updated to make it easier to find the Album Title, Custom Fields and Custom Copyright Fields.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Important: The first time you run Myriad Remote Edit Server you will be prompted to allow it to install a new updated Security Certificate. This is required to enable better SSL encryption when working with both Myriad Anywhere and also the Myriad RES REST Api. It also allows you to use the OpenAPI interface with Chromium based browsers. Note: You will still see the browser warning that the Certificate is not from a trusted root authority, but it will now then allow you to access the REST api via https.

US East Region:

• Added support for the new Myriad Anywhere servers hosted in the USA. These servers provide dedicated services for stations based in North, Central and South America and can offer significant speed increases.
• To change to using the new "US1" server cluster, go into Myriad Remote Edit Server and on the Anywhere Cloud menu, select Open Tunnel status page and you can then select the "US East" server region and click Save to change the changes.
• Your existing Myriad Anywhere URL won't change, and any users will automatically be redirected the next time they login.

AI Voice Links:

• ChatGPT script creation: Added support for OpenAI's latest gpt5, gpt-5 mini and gpt-5.2 models.

Performance improvements:

• The speed of uploading very large audio files has been improved, particularly for users using SSD hard drives for the Staging area.

REST API:

• Media: There are several new API methods to read image information:
  
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/Download - downloads the audio for the specified media item.
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/DownloadPeakFile - downloads the peak file for the specified media item.
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/CreatePeakFileByTask - creates (or force re-creates) the peak file for the specified media item.
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/ReadMediaImageInfo - returns information about the primary image for the specified media item if one has been added.
  •  /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/ReadMediaImage - returns the image for the specified media item.
• Media: There is a new QuickSearch method that allows you to do a lightweight search of all media items in the database using very simple search parameters. The results returned are also significantly smaller than for the normal /search method, meaning this method is ideal for providing an easy way for 3rd party applications to query the available items. You can filter by itemtype, title, artist, and also "must have" and "must not have" attributes.
• Media: The UpdateMediaItem method has been updated to allow you to set Categories and Attributes via a new Description string property, instead of having to know the exact attribute number. The supplied Description must be an EXACT match for an existing Category/Attribute.
• Media: The ReadUpdatableMediaItem method has also been updated to return the new Description property for the media item to match UpdateMediaItem

The following issues have been fixed:

• Myriad AutoImporter: The AutoImporter could not correctly import files from FTP servers that had a # symbol in the filename.
• Myriad OCP: The OCP text parser was not correctly handling closing square brackets in format text.  Opening ("[") and closing ("]") square brackets now need to be escaped by prefixing with a backslash character if the square brackets are required in the output, e.g. "\[CLICK HERE FOR ARTIST WEBSITE\]".
• Myriad RES REST Api: If a call to the UpdateMediaItem method failed to write the actual changes to the Media Item them Remote Edit Server would display a message box on screen, instead of returning the error to the caller.
• Media Import: Importing large Opus files would wrongly show the 'Scanning' progress as being completed when actually only a quarter to a half of the file had been imported.
  

v6.8.4 23rd February 2026

Common New Features/Changes:

Notifications:

• Email Notification: Added additional support for SMTP email servers that use unusual certificates/certificate revocation lists.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

SmartInfo:

• Met Office Weather: The Met Office weather provider has been updated to check slightly less often to help stations that are using the Met Office Free tier subscription but are using the same key on multiple stations.

Copyright Reports:

• Running particularly large Copyright Reports is now significantly faster, especially when run against SQL Servers with slower connections.

REST API:

• Log: There is a new API Endpoint for Log actions. Initially this only has 2 methods that broadly match the equivalent named methods already available on the Myriad Playout REST API. Going forward, you should target using the endpoint available via Remote Edit Server instead as this is available securely via Remote Edit Server, and will result in no extra load being placed on the Playout instance.
  
  Important: note that the responses returned by these methods are slightly different to the equivalent method on Playout as Enums are returned as strings NOT as integers to make the responses easier to understand.
  
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Log/ReadDisplayItems - this returns top level information for every Log item in the specified hours and is ideal for most use cases.
  •  /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Log/ReadItems - this returns detailed information for every Log item in the specified hours but may result in extra load on the database server if called too often.
• Media: The UploadAndImport method has several changes:
  
  • It now has a new optional itemType parameter, and the mediaId parameter is now optional, meaning you can omit the mediaId and instead Myriad will locate the first available empty Media Item in the database ranges for the specified Item Type.
  • If you specify BOTH mediaId and itemType then the file will be imported into the specified media item with the specified itemType.
  • The method now pre-reserves the Media Item much earlier on in the process so that repeat calls to the method will not be assigned the same Media ID.
• Media: The UpdateMediaItem method has several changes:
  
  • If an ExternalReference is provided in the json to be updated, then the database is checked to see if that Reference is already in use on another Media Item and the request will be rejected if it would cause a duplicate.
  • Additional safety checking has been added to ensure that start/end/delete dates are not contradictory - for example, trying to delete an item before it starts.
• Media: There is a new FindFirstAvailableMediaIdByItemType method that allows you to find the first available (empty) Media Item based on a supplied itemType. This uses the ranges specified in the Myriad Database ranges. You can optionally also reserve the found item with an optional title and a reservation duration. Reserving an item will prevent it being used by other features that look for the first available empty Media Item.
• Media: There are 2 new reservation related methods - ReserveMediaItem and ReleaseReservedMediaItem that allows reserve a specific Media item with an optional title and a reservation duration, and release that reservation if you no longer need it.
• Station: There are 2 new methods to read the Station Attributes for a station: ReadStationAttributes and ReadActiveStationAttributes. Full details are available in the OpenAPI information webpage available from the Help menu.
• Tasks: The responses from the Task methods have been changed to so Enums are now returned as strings NOT as integers to make the responses easier to understand.
• Tasks: When a Task completes, the final result is now held in memory for up to 30 minutes allowing you to query the result of a Task significantly after it has completed.
• Application API Keys: You can now use the Remote Edit Server "Write" API key to call Read methods (GET etc.) as well as Write methods (POST/PUT etc.). The Read API key still only allows Read methods.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Advert Scheduling: Adverts could fail to schedule correctly if there were more than one Advert marked as being a "Tail" media item.

v6.8.3 7th January 2026

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

Important Replication Notes:

• Media Replication: In Myriad v6.8, the default Media Wall capacity has been increased to 999,999 items. When replicating Media Items, both databases must use the same Maximum Media ID.
  
  If you have previously set a custom Maximum Media ID, no action is required. However, if the default value is still in use, media replication may pause — particularly where only one side of a replication partnership has been upgraded to v6.8.
  
  To resolve this, either upgrade both local and remote systems to v6.8, or manually configure the Maximum Media ID to match on both databases.

The following issues have been fixed:

• REST API: The new UpdateMediaItem method was not correctly updating Custom Fields.

v6.8.2 3rd December 2025

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Tags:

• There are new Tags available to easily get the Category, Type, Gender and Era of log items:
  • Category: <OCP_NOW_CATEGORYNAME>
  • Type: <OCP_NOW_TYPENAME>
  • Gender: <OCP_NOW_GENDERNAME>
  • Era: <OCP_NOW_ERANAME>

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Media:

• Added support for the Myriad Anywhere Media Update Wizard.

REST API:

• Media: There is a new UploadAndImport method you can use to upload a media file and have Myriad automatically import it. Once the process has completed you can then use the new Update methods detailed below to review the imported item and update any fields you need to - see the built in Open API documentation for more information.
  
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/UploadAndImport
• Media: There are 2 extremely powerful new methods to allow you to Update a Media Item allowing you to edit/clear almost anything on a Media item, from just a single field up to multiple fields in a single call.
  
  For example, you might want to programatically change the Title of an item, or move it into a specific category, or even update some of the timing points. You can also use it to remove information from a field - see the built in Open API documentation for more information.
  
  There is also a new matching ReadUpdatableMediaItem method that will return you the current state of a media item using the new "Updatable" media item format.
  
  Note: The new UpdateMediaItem method uses the http PATCH verb to indicate that it can be used to partially update an item as opposed to entirely overwriting it.
  
  
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/UpdateMediaItem
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/ReadUpdatableMediaItem
• Media: The Media/DeleteMediaItem method has changed so you can now delete an item via its External Reference as an alternative to by its media Id:
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/DeleteMediaItem?extRef=Son3001

The following issues have been fixed:

• Scheduling: If an item was rejected due to Type/Gender/Era rules, then it could still be incorrectly scheduled even if that means breaking other high importance rules.
• Station Attributes: Editing the Station Categories/Attributes for secondary stations would sometimes overwrite the details for the first station instead and/or fail to save the secondary station information.

v6.8.1 11th November 2025

New Features/Changes:

Version History display:

• System adminstrators can now control if the Version History information should be automatically displayed on startup the first time Myriad is loaded after an update. For more information, please see this help article.

Multiple Profiles:

• You can now show a custom image on the Select Profile window. For more information about how to configure these, please see this help article.

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

FTP Sources:

• There is a new option to use "TLS/SSL Explicit encryption" which is used when connecting on port 21 to TLS/SSL encrypted FTP servers.

The following issues have been fixed:

• The HTTP source was not checking the Last-Modified response header, so it could repeatedly downloaded the same file even if it had not changed.
• The FTP source could sometimes repeatedly download the same file if the server URL ended with a "/".

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

Myriad Anywhere Play Logs/Copyright Reports:

• The performance of sending particularly large Play Logs/Copyright reports results to Myriad Anywhere has been significantly improved.

Play Logs/Copyright Reports:

• Copyright Reports: Myriad can now export a CSV file in a format compatible with the Australian PPCA organisation. You will see "Australia - PPCA Transmission Log" in the available formats dropdown in Myriad Anywhere's Copyright Report.

REST API:

• Media: The Media/ReadMediaItem method has changed so you can now read an item via its External Reference as an alternative to by its media Id:
  • /BrMyriadRES/v6/api/Media/ReadMediaItem?extRef=Son3001

Security Options:

• Rate Limiting: You can now turn off the built-in IP address based rate limited using a new option in Application Settings "Use IP Address based Rate Limiting as an additional security precaution". Normally this option should be left turned on as a best security practice, but if you are running Remote Edit Server within a DMZ or behind an application proxy that is already applying IP restrictions then this option allows you to bypass the IP address rate limiting.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Anywhere Schedule: You could not remove date ranges from a Clock Assignment Set.
• Replacing Media audio: The Myriad Anywhere option to replace the audio was not working and would not actually replace the audio file for a media item.

Myriad OCP Changes:

Station Settings:

• The connection to your Broadcast.Radio account now uses the B.R Api Key in the main Myriad Station settings. If you need to change your B.R API Key, then you can do this via the normal Myriad Database Settings window and editing the Station Details on the
  Stations tab.

New Formats:

• Optimux: There is a new dedicated output template for sending now playing information to Optimux based DAB multiplexes. You will need the API key from your provider and also to ensure they have 'whitelisted' your IP address before you can send updates.
• Paneda (Legacy): There is a new Paneda (Legacy) output for sending now playing information to the older version of the Paneda DAB platform.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Tcp/Serial output: Sending BASE64 encoded images via the TCP/SERIAL output was corrupting the image data if it contained certain symbols.
• Alternate Strings: The last item in the list of alternate strings was not ever being sent.

v6.7.4 19th August 2025

The following issues have been fixed that affected multiple Support Applications:

• SmartInfo: SmartInfo was not correctly identifying itself itself to Wikipedia so requests for page information were being rejected once Wikipedia started enforcing tighter limits on use of their platform.
• Importing Media items: Myriad could import invalid total file durations from embedded Cart Chunk data in some cases, even if this duration was longer than the actual audio file being imported.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• SmartInfo: SmartInfo was not correctly identifying itself itself to Wikipedia so requests for page information were being rejected once Wikipedia started enforcing tighter limits on use of their platform.

v6.7.3 16th July 2025

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Outputs:

• Paneda DLS/Text: The Paneda output has been updated to use their new Service Provider ID and Data source ID based service. You will need to remove any existing Paneda output and re-add it using the api token and ID's provided by Paneda.
• Paneda SLS/Images: There is a new output just for sending images to the paneda platform. It uses the same credentials as you use for the normal Paneda DLS service as detailed above and it will automatically post images for each song that has artwork available.
• HTTP Outputs: You can now use the PUT method with HTTP outputs as an alternative to GET or POST.
• Simple Text display: The "Simple Text" format display on HTTP, IP/Serial, DAB, File and Arqiva based outputs has been updated to make it clearer to see how the text will be sent.

Social Media:

• Bluesky: Authenticating to Bluesky now gives you more information if you haven't correctly setup your bluesky credentials.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

Scheduled Log:

• The way that Log estimated start times are calculated has been updated to be significantly faster, particularly on slower servers or network connections.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Log Timing: Split groups set to play as sweepers were not being correctly accounted for in the estimated start times when the times for an hour was being calculated

v6.7.2 10th June 2025

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Importing an audio file into a MediaWall set to store using mp3 format would not display an error and fail to import.
  Remote

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Social Media Posts:

• Posting to Bluesky has been updated to correctly mark hashtags and https:// based hyperlinks so they are show as clickable items in the resulting posts.
• You are no longer prevented from entering more than 300 chars for each post, however each platform has it's own character limits that will apply - for example, if you post more than 300 characters to Bluesky it will truncate your message.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Social Media posts: The character count was not correctly updating as you edit the post message.
• Removing a Split Station: You could not remove a Split Station from the list of active stations.
• Turning off a Stations updates: Turning off a Station's updates via the slide switch would only stop periodic automatic resends, it would not prevent updates from Myriad from being sent to your outputs. It would also not prevent Social Media Posts from being sent.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Mass Change: The Mass Change feature was not working and would fail with a generic error message.
• Media Import: Importing an audio file into a MediaWall set to store using mp3 format would not display an error and fail to import.
• User History: Searching the User history using the Notes filter as well as other filters would ignore the other filters and return all items that matches the Notes filter.

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Importer Group replication:

• It's now very easy to automatically copy your Importer Groups to and from a remote system - for example when working with Myriad Cloud.
• On the "Importer Groups" menu there is a new pair of menu options that allow you to selectively download Groups from the remote station, or upload your Groups TO that remote station.
• This uses the normal Remote Station as configured in the Database Settings Window at the bottom of the the General tab.
• The Remote Station must also be running Remote Edit Server v6.7.1 or higher, or Myriad Cloud v6.7.1 or higher.

Importer Groups:

• Dropbox: Dropbox support has been updated to add support for the changes to the Dropbox platform due 1st of January 2026

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Outputs:

• Broadcast.Radio: The Broadcast.Radio output now has a new option to automatically upload the local Images for each Media Item to the Broadcast.Radio platform. These will then be displayed on the Broadcast.Radio Web player and Apps.
• Broadcast.Radio: The Broadcast.Radio output now automatically sends and Show Title and Presenter information that has been set in your Myriad Schedule Clocks to the Broadcast.Radio platform. This information can then be used withing the Broadcast.Radio Archive product to navigate your log recordings.
• AIM Rapid HTTP (OCP Pro): You can now send Now Playing information to AIM Rapid via their new HTTP protocol. The older existing output has therefore been renamed to AIM Rapid (TCP) to differentiate between the two.
• AIM RadioAPI (OCP Pro):  The AIM output has been updated to send the next 5 items as "queued" items to the AIM platform.

Outputs settings replication:

• It's now very easy to automatically copy your OCP output settings to and from a remote system - for example when working with Myriad Cloud.
• On the "Outputs" tab there is a new Replication button that will allow you to selectively download Outputs from the remote station, or upload your settings TO that remote station.
• This uses the normal Remote Station as configured in the Database Settings Window at the bottom of the the General tab.
• The Remote Station must also be running Remote Edit Server v6.7.1 or higher, or Myriad Cloud v6.7.1 or higher.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Station Replication:

• Adds support for the new Station Replication mapping feature added in Myriad Playout/Myriad Schedule v6.7

User and Security Replication:

• Adds support for the new User replication feature. For more information about this feature, please see the Myriad Playout or Myriad Schedule Version Histories.
• Note: If you are using Myriad Cloud, then you will need to change your security settings to allow users to sign in with their Myriad Accounts. You can find full details on how to do this in this help article https://broadrad.com/mcsso

• Media Replication: Deleting an individual item would not always be replicated in complex multi-replication partner scenarios.
• Media Import: The last Now Playing item imported from a .cue file did not have its end time set correctly.
• Log Editing: Manually inserting an advert into an existing advert break would result in the advert break being split into 2 unscheduled breaks if the adverts were re-scheduled.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Backup destinations:

• Dropbox: Dropbox support has been updated to add support for the changes to the Dropbox platform due 1st of January 2026

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

User Security:

• The Guest account (which is disabled by default) and the Broadcast Radio Contact are now only created when you first create a new User Security database, so you can then delete these and they will not be recreated later. Note that AutoTrack SE might still recreate these due to backwards compatibilty requirements with AutoTrack v4, so if you require those 2 items to be removed permanently then you should look at migrating over to Myriad Schedule.

The following issues have been fixed:

• AI VoiceLinks: ElevenLabs voices with very long names could fail to render due to a filename length limit in the Windows temp folder.
• Mass changing Media: Remote Edit Server would halt and display an error message on screen if the metadata could not be written to an audio file if it was in use somewhere else.

• You can also optionally select a list from your Bluesky account, and Myriad will automatically add Bluesky links for any Artists that you have manually entered their Bluesky handles into Artist Information, or where Myriad has been able to automatically locate that information.

Outputs:

• Arqiva DAB: Myriad OCP can now send now playing information to the new Arqiva Data Services Gateway system that is being rolled out across the UK. This allows syncrhonised updates to be sent to multiple multiplexes simultaneously. You will need to contact Arqiva to obtain the server and security credentials you need to use the new DSG system.

The following issues have been fixed:

• On-Air Controller: The name of the current On-Air Controller would stop being displayed after editing the settings for an Output.

• Remote users Editing Database Settings: RES could not receive any Database Settings that were being written via Myriad Anywhere or replication, so would not correctly write them to the database.

v6.5.1 19th November 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Importer Groups:

• Dropbox: AutoImporter can now import from Dropbox "Team" folders, as well as the existing support for personal and Shared folders.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Adding Group: The Import Group Wizard was not asking you what folder to import into when you selected to import the files into a local folder instead of to a media item.

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Outputs:

• Broadcast.Radio (basic output): By default, information updates are now delayed by 20 seconds before being sent to the Broadcast.Radio platform. This is to allow for the typical time it takes for the encoded stream to be recieved and played back by listeners. You can adjust this delay in the output settings.
• HTTP Outputs: There is a new setting that allows you to delay the http request being sent. As with the Broadcast.Radio change above, this is to allow for the time it takes for an encoded stream to be received and played back by a listener.
  • This setting is available for all HTTP based outputs, for example the "broadcast.radio Advanced output", as well as other services such as Icecast, Aiir etc.

Tags:

• There is a new <OCP_NOW_DURATIONTRIMMED> tag which shows the duration of the current item but trimmed to only include minutes and hours if nescessary.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Editing Outputs: All information about playing/previous/next items and station/show information was being wrongly cleared after editing an Output.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Backup Providers:

• (New!) FTP Server: This new provider allows you to backup your media items and SQL Database backups to an FTP server - ideal for backing up to a remote store that is far less likely to be vulnerable to any local malware attack.
• When adding a new provider, you are now prompted if you want any existing "deleted media" information to be removed from the database before it's added. This is useful as it will speed up the initial backup as it won't need to check any of those items against the new backup destination.
  • Important: Before saying "Yes" to this clearout, you MUST make sure that all other backup destinations and any Myriad Replication's have been fully completed or you will find that some locally deleted items may be restored from the backup or replication destinations unexpectedly.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Myriad backup would stop and show an error message if a media item was deleted between it being detected and the backup of that item started.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Myriad Anywhere Changes:

• Anywhere Cloud Tunnel Service: The Tunnel Service application has been updated to support new features coming soon to Myriad Anywhere Cloud.

• There are 3 new report templates for USA stations - ASCAP, BMI and SoundExchange.
• There is a new General Copyright Report (Collated) example report that shows the total number of plays for each item.
• The Copyright Fields Example report template has been updated to include all of the additional Media Item Copyright fields.
• Collated reports can now now the Station Name and Callsign and correctly separate Media plays between stations, so you can use a single collated report to view play counts across multiple stations simultaneously.
• Reports now have the Country name as a prefix to make it easier to locate the reports for your station, as well as now being sortable by Media ID or Play Count. To see these changes, you need to remove your existing templates by closing Myriad, and remove any files from the DataLocation\Reports\Copyright\Templates that you want to be updated, then re-start Myriad and the templates will be automatically updated.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Importing Media Items: Importing an audio file into a media item as a Link, but where the file has an embedded "genre" that matched a song catgegory would set the Category for the link item incorrectly.
• Replicating Media Items: When a station used replication to download a media item from the MediaWall, the event log was wrongly showing that the "audio" was sent for each file that made up the Media Item, instead of correctly showing that it was downloading the audio/image etc.

v6.4.5 October 2024

Myriad OCP Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Presenter names: OCP would wrongly send "PRESENTERFULLNAME" for an output using the <OCP_SPECIAL_PRESENTERFULLNAME> tag if there was no presenter name information supplied.
• FTP/File outputs: OCP would not update a file if the output resulted in an empty string - for example a file that only contains the tag <OCP_SPECIAL_USERFULLNAME> would result in an empty string if there is no user logged in.

v6.4.4 25th September 2024

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Outputs:

• FTP: Previously, Myriad OCP would maintain a constant connection to the FTP server, however this can cause problems with server's that will disconnect long duration connections. FTP connects are now closed once all of the files have been uploaded, and a new connection is created each time the output needs to update.

The following issues have been fixed:

• FTP/File outputs: OCP would refuse to close if you had an output configured to send to an FTP Server.
• FTP/File outputs: OCP would not always upload to the current sub-directory if the connection had to reconnect.

v6.4.4 25th September 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• FTP Import: AutoImporter would sometimes close down if you had recently edited an FTP importer group configuration.

The following issues have been fixed:

• OneDrive backup: Stability improvements.

v6.4.3 6th August 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• CSV File Import: Files listed in CSV files were not being correctly detected and imported.

Myriad OCP Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• File outputs: OCP would only upload pictures if you included PICTUREFUILENAME or PICTUREBASE64 within the text of the file to process.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Settings:

• The "Limits" section of the Remote Edit Server Settings window where you could set the maximum number of items to be returned as part of search results has moved to the Database Settings window. If you previously altered this from the default of 1000 items then you will need to re-set this setting in the Database Settings window.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Myriad Anywhere Mass Changer: This would always change the attributes for a Song/Link (e.g. Category/Type etc.) for the first station even if you had selected a secondary station.
• Myriad News: Approved by and Used information was not being correctly read and written to v6 News databases.
• Scheduled Log Hour Replication: Uploading or downloading a Scheduled Log Hour from a remote station or Myriad Cloud system was not correctly setting the last modified information which would result in some stations seeing hours re-replicating or replicating in the wrong direction.
• Database structure changes: Several of the key indexes within the database structure have been updated to make them much more efficient to help resolve performance issues and reduce fragmentation with some stations that have large or very manually adjusted Scheduled Logs.

v6.4.2 July 2024

Myriad OCP Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• File outputs: OCP could exit if a user tried to edit the settings and remove a file with an invalid source filename.

v6.4.2 13th June 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Dropbox groups: When AutoImporter detected a new audio file to import, it was not correctly downloading an associated files, e.g. .cue files etc.
• OneDrive groups: When AutoImporter detected a new audio file to import, it was not correctly downloading an associated files, e.g. .cue files etc.
• Some users found that opening some windows would cause Myriad to exit, including the Importer Group settings window. Running the "repair" in the Myriad Installer would resolve this.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• OneDrive backup: Some users were still seeing Token errors during routine backups.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Replication:

• The upload and download timeouts have been significantly improved to help with replicating very large media files over slower network connections.

v6.4.1 5th June 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Importer Groups:

• You can now clear the list of items that have already been downloaded and imported by FTP, Podcast, OneDrive and Dropbox groups. This will cause all items in the importer source to be reimported if they match the group's criteria. To clear this list, edit the importer group and look for the "Clear the list..." button.
• Added experimental support for importing ".snd" format audio files. This has only been tested with a small number of Dalet snd files.
• Podcasts: Added extra handling to remove invalid "atom:link" items from the podcast feed before processing as these can contain invalid uri link that prevent items from being able to be imported.

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Fields:

• You can now include each Media item's MusicBrainzID ID using the tag <OCP_NOW_MEDIA_MUSICBRAINZID>

Outputs:

• AmperWave: Myriad OCP Pro now has an output template to send now playing information to an AmperWave RDS encoder.

The following issues have been fixed:

• OCP was not correctly reloading it's settings if a user edits a Stations's Outputs via Myriad Anywhere.
• Broadcast Radio Encoder output: This was wrongly set to send repeated updates even if no information had changed.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Backup/Restore process:

• Multiple Backup providers: You can now backup to multiple "providers" simultaneously - i.e. every time a Media Item changes, it will be backed up to all your configured backup locations e.g. Onedrive AND Dropbox, as well as the new "local" file storage - see below.
• Myriad Backup has been significantly overhauled to improve the way that backups are created and managed, and Backup and Restore are now separated within the application, with the main user interface now focusing primarily on configuring and monitoring the BACKUP process.
• RESTORING items is now done from the new Restore menu, and has a new streamlined interface for choosing what items should be restored, including new controls to allow you to even restore items media items that are OLDER than the local media to help with rolling back to previous audio when required.

Backup Providers:

• (New!) Local File/Network: This new provider allows you to backup your media items and SQL Database backups to a local drive or network location - ideal for making sure you also have an on-site backup as well as the other providers for offsite backups.
• OneDrive: The OneDrive provider has been updated to the use the latest "Microsoft Graph API" which includes significant performance and reliabilty fixes from the Microsoft OneDrive team.
  • Important: Due to changes in the Microsoft Graph API, you MUST re-authorise Myriad Playout Backup with your OneDrive account so it has permission to create and restore backups.
• Dropbox: The Dropbox provider has been updated to use the latest API available from Dropbox.
  • Important: Due to changes in the latest Dropbox API, you may need to re-authorise Myriad Playout Backup's access to your Dropbox account.

The following issues have been fixed:

• OneDrive: Several issues with "tokens" expiring and other problems have been resolved by changing to the latest "Graph API" provided by Microsoft.
• Dropbox: Fixed issues with security tokens that could time-out if no backups were needed to be created for a long period of time.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Scheduled Log:

• AI Voice Links: The default ChatGPT model has been updated to use GPT-4o which is has more up to date information about the world, works significantly faster and also a lot cheaper.

Play Logs/Copyright Reports: 

• There is a new example Copyright report "Example with all Copyright Fields" which shows an example of all the primary fields that are available in Copyright reports. This is very useful if you need to modify an existing report or to build your own from scratch.

Replication:

• When replicating a Song or Link item from a remote system, the "Allowed to be scheduled" information is now preserved.

Myriad Anywhere Changes:

• Anywhere Cloud Tunnel Service: The Tunnel Service application has been updated with several changes to significantly improve download speeds for users on faster connections, as well as reducing the load on heavily used firewall/routers.
• The Ducking systems used by Myriad Anywhere and Myriad Playout Remote has been entirely re-written to provide a much more stable multi-user capability. You will need to update Myriad Playout to at least v6.4.1 to use this new feature.

OpenAPI REST:

• REST testing: There is a new option in Remote Edit Settings to "Open additional HTTP test port" - this opens an http based port to allow easy testing of the REST api via the built in OpenAPI swagger test webpage. This port should NEVER be exposed to the public internet and should only be used for testing. Once your testing is complete you should turn off this option and use the normal https based port instead.
• User Security Tokens: As well as the existing master Read and Write API Keys (available from the Settings menu), you can now create User Security Tokens from within Myriad Playout and Myriad Schedule's new "Manage My Account/Security" window which will give you a token that can be used for the X-API-Key which is then used to authenticate and authorise your calls to the OpenAPI REST methods. Any methods that result in changes (for example importing media items or working with Traffic Logs) are the performed using your user account. This provides and much more secure and audited method of working with the REST API.
• There are several new REST methods including:
  
  • Media:
    • Media/ReadMediaItem, Media/ReadMediaItems, Media/ReadMediaItemsRange, Media/CopyMediaItem, Media/MoveMediaItem, Media/DeleteMediaItem, Media/ImportMediaFile
  • Traffic:
    • Traffic/ReadAdvertPlayLogs, Traffic/WriteAdvertLogs
  • Security:
    • Security/IssueUserSecurityToken, Security/RevokeUserSecurityToken, Security/DeleteUserSecurityToken
• To see a full list of the available methods, click on the Help menu, then Documentation, then Display OpenAPI REST information.

Database Housekeeping:

Myriad Remote Edit Server also now runs the same Housekeeping process as other Myriad Playout related produts, but works across all enabled stations in the database. This helps to make sure that any stations that are not regularly used - e.g. Training stations etc. - also have their scheduled logs automatically managed etc.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Extro's not being read from transport files: Importing a transport file that contains a non-wav audio file (e.g. mp3) could result in the extro being re-detected using the AutoExtro process instead of retaining the extro set in the transport file. This could also affect replicating items with a remote site.
• Importing audio files from I Like Music: Myriad was not correctly importing the Copyright title and Publisher information.
• Myriad Schedule: In Enhanced deck mode, extra checking has been added to confirm that an item is "Allowed to be scheduled" even if it is still wrongly in the Song/Link decks due to previously using mismatched versions of Myriad to edit Media items.

v6.3.6 May 2024

Myriad OCP Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Editing outputs: Some users would open an Output setting window (for example editing an Icecast output) and find that the details were not being displayed and that any edits were not being recognised.

v6.3.6 April 2024

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Replication:

• The way that files are read from local data folders to be sent to remote users has been rewritten to give significant performance improvements.

The following issues have been fixed:

AI Voice Links:

• Azure OpenAI: Updated to the latest Azure OpenAI release - required to support the latest updated to Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Anywhere users: Users could not save Personal Jump buttons until they had logged into full on-premise Myriad Playout first.
• Database selection: If there are no Myriad Databases on the current Microsoft SQL Server you are now shown then Select Database Dialog so you can create a new one if needed.

v6.3.3 28th February 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Importer Groups:

• Mass Changer: Fixed a problem with Mass Changing the scheduling details for an Advert in a different station would wrongly apply the new scheduling settings and could affect the currently open Station as well.

v6.3.2 24th January 2024

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

OneDrive Support:

• Myriad AutoImporter can now import directly from OneDrive so you no longer need to install and configure the OneDrive client. When you first configure the Importer Group you will be asked to login to OneDrive and then grant Myriad access to your account to download files. Myriad does not store your username and password, only a special secure 'token' that grants this instance of Myriad access to your onedrive files.
• Each AutoImporter Group uses it's own OneDrive 'token' so each group can download from a different account if nescessary.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Add Importer Group Wizard: The "browse" button was not being enabled when adding a local file or network based importer group.
• FTP Sources: New files would not be downloaded from the FTP Server and would show an "invalid cast" exception.
• Podcast Sources: These would fail to download if the title of the Podcast Episode contained certain invalid filename characters such as the pipe character ( | )

Myriad OCP Changes:

No new features or significant changes.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

No new features or significant changes.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

v6.3.1 12th December 2023

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Managing Importer Groups:

• Add New Group: There is an all new Add Importer Group wizard that walks you through the process of adding a new Group. This dramatically simplifies the process for the majority of users. You can still go direct to the full window by clicking the "Add new Importer Group (Advanced)" menu option instead.
• The folder that the AutoImporter Logs are stored in has changed from (DataLocation)\Logs\MediaAutoImporter6 to (DataLocation)\Logs\AutoImporter6

Dropbox Support:

• Myriad AutoImporter can now import directly from Dropbox so you no longer need to install the Dropbox windows software. When you first configure the Importer Group you will be asked to login to Dropbox and then grant Myriad access to your account to download files. Myriad does not store your username and password, only a special secure 'token' that grants this instance of Myriad access to your dropbox.
• Each AutoImporter Group uses it's own Dropbox 'token' so each group can download from a different dropbox account if nescessary.

Station Enablers:

• AutoImporter now requires at least one Stations to have a Station Enabler. If you already have a Station Enabler code for your station then there is no further action required and Myriad AutoImporter will run straight away.
• If you don't currently have a Station Enabler code, please contact hello@broadcastradio.com for more information.
• Station Enablers are available free of charge to all existing stations who have a full Myriad Playout license.

The following issues have been fixed:

• FTP download: Added additional support for some rarer versions of "Passive" mode FTP servers.

• Media Import: Replacing a media item on the MediaWall with a transport file was not correctly moving the previous version into the recycle bin.

Myriad OCP Changes:

New Features/Changes:

New Media Note Tags:

• Now that Social Media (short) and Social Media (long) note types have been combined, there is a new tag to include those notes - <OCP_NOW_MEDIA_SOCIALNOTES>
• Now that RDS and Digital Radio note types have been combined, there is a new tag to include those notes - <OCP_NOW_MEDIA_DRNOTES> - the existing <OCP_NOW_MEDIA_DABNOTES> does also still work for existing outputs.

Outputs:

• AIM Rapid by XPERI: Myriad OCP Pro now has an output template to send now playing information to AIM Rapid.
• AIM Radio API/DTS AutoStage: The existing AIM Radio API output has been updated with the latest specification from AIM.
• Cirrus by Securenet Systems: Myriad OCP Pro now has an output template to send now playing information to Securenet Systems' Cirrus platform.
• File/FTP Output: There is a new option on this output that allows you to select the text encoding method used - for example, you may need to force ASCII or UNICODE output format.

Station Enablers:

• All OCP stations now require a Station Enabler to allow Myriad Playout to send information to Myriad OCP. If you already have a Station Enabler code for your station then there is no further action required and Myriad OCP will run straight away.
• If you don't currently have a Station Enabler code, please contact hello@broadcastradio.com for more information.
• Station Enablers are available free of charge to all existing stations who have a full Myriad Playout license.

The following issues have been fixed:

• HTTP and Broadcast.Radio outputs: These outputs were wrongly treating a single "#" in the information to send as an instruction to split the message into multiple parts.

Myriad Playout Backup Changes:

No new features or significant changes.

Myriad Remote Edit Server Changes:

New Features/Changes:

Media Wall/Report:

• Find next empty Media Item: The way that Myriad searches for the "next" empty media item, especially in databases that are set to replicate with other systems, has been entirely rewritten to give a significant performance increase. This is used when adding new items via Myriad Anywhere including recording new Voice Links
• CRTC Copyright report: The "SUBCATEGORY" field is now populated from the Custom4 field on the Media Editor. Existing stations may need to remove the existing "CRTCAirplay-v5.xml" file in your DataLocation\Reports\Copyright\Templates so this file can be recreated to get this update. 

Myriad Schedule:

• User History: To reduce clutter in the User History, all Automatic scheduling and log cleanup of both Myriad and Advert logs is now logged in the User History as "System" events - to see these events you need to change the filter from "Normal Events" to either "All Events" or "System Events".  Any Scheduling or log deletions that are done by a user are still shown in the Normal Events list.
• Myriad now logs in the User History when a user adds, edits or deletes a Clock, Clock Assignment Set or a Station Rules set.*
• Remote users are now limited to scheduling no more than 31 days in a single scheduling operation. If a user needs to schedule more than this duration then they should break it into shorter date ranges.

Security:

• Users are now prevented from attempting to login too frequently if they do not have a valid username and password. They will instead recieve a message telling to wait a short while before they can try to login again. Subsequently entering a correct username and password will clear this time delay.
• Replication connections: The login and logout messages relating to a replication connection are now only shown if you change the User History filter to include "system" events.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Myriad Anywhere TCP port: You could change the port in the settings window, but it would revert back to 6947 the next time you started Remote Edit Server.
• Importing/Replicating Media Items: Importing a transport file or replicating a media Item where the media item is set to "Basic Media Item" was wrongly setting the destination media item's type to the type for the range, rather than honouring the original source media item's Item Type.
• Media Export: Exporting a transport file or replicating a media item to a remote system would not correctly include any "Display By" information.
• Media Import: Replacing a media item on the MediaWall with a transport file was not correctly moving the previous version into the recycle bin.

v6.2.2 4th September 2023

Myriad AutoImporter Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• HTTP and Podcast Groups: After stopping an HTTP or Podcast Group, all other groups of the same type would fail to import anything further, showing an "ObjectDisposed" message, until AutoImporter was restarted.
• Remote editing of Groups: If you edited your Importer Groups remotely, but one or more of the groups had an invalid configuration (for example a missing file path) then AutoImporter would display a message on screen and not complete it's autorestart until you clicked the OK button. Instead, AutoImporter now silently restarts and displays the error message in the event log at the bottom of the window.

Myriad OCP Changes:

The following issues have been fixed:

• Format Creator Window: Pressing the delete key near a Tag could sometimes remove too much text, and could on occasions result in OCP exiting.

• An Importer Group that is configured to check every X seconds can now additionally be set to import files if the system time is between a specified start and end time in the hour - for example, only download a Traffic update between 40 mins and 50 mins past the hour. You can also set this to stop checking for the remainder of the period once an item has succesfully been imported.
• You can now set the Importer to look for the Media ID at the END of the filename instead of the start.

REST API:

• The AutoImporter now has a REST API to allow you to start and stop Importer groups remotely as well as check the running status. More details are available on the Help menu.

New Features/Changes:

Voice Link Processing:

• You can now specify a command line audio processing tool to use to post-process new Voice Links after they are uploaded. You specify the command line tool to use on a new Audio tab in Remote Edit Server Settings. This also includes a preset option to automatically configure the options required to use the Stereo Tool command line tool - note that this requires a license from Stereo Tool.
• Important note: You cannot not currently process voice tracks that are being stored on a MediaWall stored using the Opus audio format as most command line tools cannot process Opus format audio files.

Myriad Anywhere Changes:

• Anywhere Cloud: There is a new option on the Myriad Anywhere Cloud menu to manage your Myriad Anywhere Cloud account on the Broadcast.Radio platform - https://my.broadcast.radio/station/x/options/anywhere
• Anywhere Cloud: The first time you run Myriad Remote Edit Server and choose the option to install the Anywhere Tunnel Service, Myriad RES will check to see if there was an API key previously used in RES v5 and will display that key along with additional information on how to enter that into the settings web page. If no API key is found then RES will ask if you want to be taken to the Myriad Anywhere page on the Broadcast.Radio platform to locate the API key.
• Anywhere Cloud Tunnel Service: Myriad Remote Edit Server now checks the running version of the Tunnel Service and warns you if you are running the older release that shipped with Myriad v5.
• Anywhere Cloud Tunnel Service: The local webpage that confirms the API key in use and that the Tunnel Service is connected has been updated with new Anywhere v6 graphics.

The following issues have been fixed (17th May 2023 update):

Outputs:

• Adding a new output: You can now fast navigate the list of available templates by pressing the first letter of that output - for example pressing "h" will just down the list to the HTTP output
• Icecast: The default template for new Icecast Outputs now includes a charset section to tell Icecast that OCP may be sending non English characters.
• Outputs List: The "OK" caption will now show as a blue clickable hyperlink if there is additional information to display. For example, Icecast sometimes returns "OK" for an update requests even though it has actually rejected the update due to some internal source restrictions. Clicking the hyperlink to see the extended status will now show the full response provided by the Icecast server.

The following issues have been fixed:

• TCP/IP Connections: Myriad OCP would occasionally stop sending updates to connections to TCP/IP devices that were set to close after sending each message.
• Adding Outputs: Creating some outputs from the templates (for example Broadcast Radio Logging) would not set the text format to use when sending the message.

  • Note: This requires an update to Myriad Anywhere Cloud so may not be available immediately but will be made available in the very near future.

The following issues have been fixed:

• Firewall: The firewall rules would not be correctly updated/created in some non-english versions of Windows.
