TSS Compose
This release strengthens the foundation of Compose, aligning it more closely with the latest updates in Play and Control.
The changes are largely behind the scenes, but they are essential to keep the platform consistent, stable, and ready for future development across the suite.
What changed
Release 4.0
Stronger foundation for component integration
Compose has been updated to better support the new architecture of Play and Control, ensuring smoother interaction between components and a solid base for future improvements.
More reliable media uploads
The upload process for large media files has been improved. Files are now uploaded in smaller parts, reducing the risk of timeouts and allowing uploads to continue even if the browser becomes temporarily unresponsive or is closed.
Better performance
We optimised how Compose communicates with on-site components, resulting in improved performance during design and content management.
Security updates
All Compose dependencies have been updated to known safe versions to keep the platform secure and up to date.
Release 4.1
Story folder management
Stories can now be organised into folders, making it easier to keep large libraries structured and findable. Folders can be created, renamed, and shared with collaborators, and stories can be moved between folders with a simple drag-and-drop.
Moving media from personal- to company library
We added new controls for moving media from the Personal Library to the Company Library. By default, all user groups that already have permission to add media to the Company Library will now also have permission to move media from their personal library into the company library.
Story management for admins
Admins now have broader control over stories within their organisation, allowing them to oversee, manage, and maintain the full story portfolio without depending on individual story owners. Such as deleting stories of users or transferring story ownership to a new user.
Release 4.2
Per-asset audio level control
Audio content often differs in volume from one asset to another. Creators can now balance the audio levels of individual assets directly when building a scene, removing the need to adjust the master volume during a live presentation.
On-click actions on screensavers
On-click actions are now also supported on the screensaver scene, turning the idle state of a setup into an active starting point for interaction.
Asset processing
Uploaded media is now automatically converted to the optimal format for playback based on its size and content, with GPU-accelerated encoding where possible and dedicated paths for transparency and ultra-wide content. The result is faster loading, smoother playback, and consistent quality across every setup.
What this means for you
More reliable uploads for large media files
Less risk of losing progress during long uploads
A more consistent and future-proof CMS experience
Looking ahead
With this foundation in place, future updates to Compose can focus more on usability and feature improvements, while staying fully aligned with Play and Control.
