Playlists, creator metadata, and richer media responses
Back to Changelog
FastPix now exposes a full playlist API alongside richer creator and quality metadata on each media. You can create, update, list, and delete ordered playlists of VOD content, and attach creator-level metadata (title, creator_id) at create-media time so it flows through search, list, and webhook responses.
This makes it easier to model the editorial structure of a video library — channels, series, seasons, creator pages — without standing up your own catalog database on top of FastPix.
What’s new:
- Playlist endpoints — POST create, PATCH update, GET list, DELETE, and add-media-to-playlist / remove-media-from-playlist. Successful PATCH returns 200 (rather than the previous 201) and successful playlist update returns 200 without a body change.
creator_idandtitleon media — both fields can be set at create-media time and on update-media, and are echoed back on all media responses.- Frame rate in media response — get-media now includes
track_frame_ratefor each video track so client UIs can display the correct frame-rate badge. mediaQualityin media response — the media response now includes the resolved media quality (Standard, Plus, Premium) used for transcoding.- Source resolution in playlist media list — the media list nested inside a playlist response now includes each item’s
source_resolutionso list UIs can show quality without an extra get-media call. - Add-media-to-playlist fix — a 500 error that occurred when adding certain medias to a playlist has been resolved.
- List-uploads fix — the list-uploads endpoint now returns correctly ordered results for workspaces with thousands of uploads.
Existing media will continue to work; if you want the new metadata fields populated retroactively you can call update-media with the relevant values.
