Warning: New actions !
In OnTheAir Video 4.2, one of the major changes is the new types of Actions. Previously, in OnTheAir Video 4.1 or earlier, actions were only AppleScripts. With version 4.2, actions can be other things than AppleScript in order for example to control the DGO or video routers directly. These new actions required us to change the playlist format to save these actions. Thus there could be issues when going back and forth between version 4.2 (or later) and earlier versions of OnTheAir Video which were using different actions. Here is the behaviour to expect: When going from version 4.1 to 4.2: - Actions will be converted to the new actions with attributes, there is nothing to do. - You can save the playlist in the new format and if you only use AppleScript actions, you can go back and forth between version 4.1 and 4.2, but not if you use other types of actions. When going from version 4.2 to 4.1: - If you were using only "AppleScript" actions in version 4.2, there will be no issue. - If you used other types of actions, you will be able to open the playlist in version 4.1, but if you save your playlist in version 4.1, you will loose all "non-AppleScript" actions and you won't be able to retrieve them when reopening with version 4.2. So make sure to disable auto-save in that case. REST API modifications There are some important changes in the REST API. We recommend using the same OnTheAir Video versions for the client and the server. Particularly if you are using actions.

!! WARNING !! Check your Actions AppleScript after the update!!
There can be issues with Actions AppleScripts controlling either the Videohub or GPICommander. Indeed, there was a syntax issue in previous versions of OnTheAir Video, as both VideoHub and GPICommander used "inputs" and "outputs", which led to confusion to script editor. For VideoHub we now use "Sources" and "Destinations", instead of "Inputs" and "Outputs". But if your script was written (or saved) with an old version of OnTheAir Video opened, and you then start a new version of OnTheAir Video, it could use "destination" instead of "output" for GPICommander. Sorry for any inconvenience.
