We just released a new version of the blip.tv dashboard. There are a number of enhancements included in this new release. They include: a new Episode Manager, greatly improved playlist support, and support for distribution to Boxee directly from within the Dashboard.
A number of shows have been distributing to Boxee for the last several months through blip, but now the feature is truly available to everyone (subject to approval by the blip.tv content team).
Some details on the release:
- The new Episode Manager
- Drag & drop episodes into playlists
- Create playlists on the fly
- Add episodes to playlists during upload
- Drive custom players and embeds off of playlists
- Boxee distribution
- Apply for distribution to Boxee from within the Dashboard
- Distribute new episodes to Boxee with a checkbox on the upload form
- Distribute your back catalog to Boxee with batch editing in the Episode Manager
- Upgraded revenue statistics, including eCPM
We believe that the new playlist features are really going to drive some interesting things. You can now organize seasons, themes, anything you want. Customize feeds and players based on those playlists. You can have a Season 1 Player, a Season 2 Player… a Dirty Jokes Player and a Really Dirty Jokes Player. And, of course, knowing your eCPM and distributing to Boxee can’t hurt ;-)
One really important caveat: The new eCPM reporting reports your earnings per thousand video views across all your video views, including the ones we’re unable to serve ads on. Read Optimizing your show’s revenue for information on how to increase your eCPM (tip: make sure more video views happen in the blip player).
There’s another new release already being worked on that will, among other things, bring Sony Consumer Electronics (Sony Bravia TVs and Blu-Ray players) and Verizon FiOS Video on Demand into the Dashboard. TV distribution is going to be important in 2010!
