You can now create DVB subtitles directly from your existing VTT files using Syndication.
When you add subtitles to your content on Uplynk, those subtitles are automatically converted and stored in VTT format. If you want Syndication to generate DVB subtitles from those VTT files, just include the following key/value in your Syndication job: show_vtt = 1.
For more information about Syndication, check out the documentation.
We’ve made a couple of important improvements to how you interact with tables:
Tab to go to the next item, Shift + Tab to go back, and Space to select or deselect an item.These updates make managing tables faster and more efficient, whether you prefer using your mouse or keyboard.
Multi-row selection
Keyboard navigation
We’ve made a small but impactful improvement to Playlists!
You can now view asset details directly by clicking on any entry in your playlist - and if you need a closer look, you can open the asset in a separate tab with a single click.
This update helps you move faster by reducing unnecessary clicks and page navigation, making it easier to manage and review your playlists.
We’ve just upgraded MP4 Exports to give you more control and flexibility! You can now export any available rendition of your asset, whether it’s high, low, or anything in between, and get direct download links for both MP4 files and any other available sidecar captions.
Whether you’re distributing content, running QA, or just need a quick download in a specific resolution, it’s now faster and easier.
Head to the Export tab of any asset to try it out.

Under the Assets page for Analytics, there is a new Inventory tab that reports on the number of assets of all types stored for an Uplynk account. If a user has access to more than one account, a user can filter by account.
The Inventory tab also shows a graph of how many assets were created over a time range.

We’re excited to announce that our new Syndication workflow will go live on Monday, July 21.
This update introduces a new way to manage Syndication jobs through job templates. When you create a target, you will be able to pre-configure job settings that will automatically apply whenever a job is added to a live channel or event. This makes the setup process faster and simpler - especially if you need to reuse the same configuration for different live events.
Check out our updated Syndication docs here, and reach out to our Support team if you have any questions.
