The block has been totally refactored in MIB 3.0, with the objective of simplifying the operation. It has been divided in 3 different levels that can be expanded or collapsed:
 
−
# Instance level: The first level groups all the device availabilities for an instance. It can be used to enable/disable the availabilities and configure the quality for all the device types at the same time. In a VOD Channel, it is not possible to create availabilities for different instances. It is just possible to create availabilities into the instance the VOD channel belongs to. The instance is calculated based on the VOD channel parent channel, until recursively reaches a root channel that will be linked to an Instance.
 
−
# Device Group level: The second level groups all the device types that belong to an specific group. Device Groups are managed globally in the [[Device_Type_Groups_Page_Manual_3.0|Device Type Groups page]]. You can enable/disable the availabilities and configure the quality for all the device types of an specific group.
 
−
# Device Type level: The third level contains the specific device types, in case you want to configure the availability and/or quality of an specific device type.

This blocks allows you to select those VOD Contents (Movies, Series, Seasons and Episodes) that will be available inside this channel. To do this, the operator is able to define a set of rules, called Content Criteria Filters that will be evaluated during the Catalog Exporter process. All the [[Movies_Page_Manual_3.0|Movies]] that match the specified filters will be linked to this VOD Channel.

−
<big>'''Create new Content Criteria'''</big><br />
 
−
It is really easy to create a new content criteria. You only have to build an expression by combining filters that will be evaluated to select the movies that match. The expression will be composed of one or more '''Groups''' each of them composed of one or more filters and the AND/OR relationship between them. Example:<br />
 
−
Group1 = FilterA OR FilterB
 
−
Group2 = FilterC
 
−
Content Criteria = (Group1 AND Group2) = ((FilterA OR FilterB) AND FilterC)
 
−
# First add a new '''Group''' by clicking on the [[File:NewGroupButton3.png|middle|80px]] button.
 
−
# Then add a new Filter by clicking on the [[File:AddMib3.png|middle|20px]] button.
 
−
# Select the type of filter from the list and fill the value for the filter. There are multiple filter types available and you can combine them as you want. Some examples of filters are:
 
−
#* Commercialization Type
 
−
#* Content Category
 
−
#* Distributor ID
 
−
#* Episodes by SeasonID
 
−
#* Episodes by SearieID
 
−
#* Genre ID
 
−
#* Instance ID
 
−
#* Last X days
 
−
#* Movie Type
 
−
#* Person Role
 
−
#* etc.
 
−
# Continue adding as many filters as desired to build the first group expression.
 
−
# When you have added all the filters for the first group, select the operator (AND / OR) that will be used to link the filters for that group.
 
−
# Now you can add a new group, go back to 1. When you have finished adding groups, select the operator (AND / OR) between the different groups.
 
−
Once finished you can continue to the Highlights section, Orders section or Preview. Save changes at anytime by clicking on the[[File:Save3.png|middle|30px]] in the VOD Channel page.
 
−
<br /><br />
 
−
<big>'''Highlight content'''</big><br />
 
−
In the new content criteria, you can select some content to be highlighted. This highlighted content will be returned first when ordering the Default order is selected in the VOD channel. To do it, follow this steps:
 
−
# First click on the [[File:NewGroupButton3.png|middle|80px]] button to select movies to be highlighted.
 
−
# A page will open allowing you to search over the different movies you have access to. '''Important:''' You will be able to select '''ANY''' movie from the list of movies you have access to. The movie will be returned independently on the Content Criterias that you have defined in the block. Of course, if duplicated, the content will be returned only once, highlighted.
 
−
# Select one or more contents to be added. It is important to understand that the highlighted contents will be ordered depending on the order they are added. So add first the contents you want to be highlighted first. In the current version of this block, it is not available the [[https://jirapdi.tid.es/browse/GVPPLATF-40418 manual ordering of highlights]], it will be added in future versions.
 
−
# Save changes at anytime by clicking on the[[File:Save3.png|middle|30px]] in the VOD Channel page.

<big>'''Define default ordering and maximum number of results'''</big><br />
 
−
In the new content criteria, you can also define the maximum number of results to be returned and the behavior of the '''default''' ordering and select what ordering criteria should be applied for those contents.
 
−
# First click on the '''Default Order section'''
 
−
# Select the primary ordering criteria from the list available:
 
−
#* Default: Ordered by ID
 
−
#* Editorial Rating : Ordered by movie Editorial Rating value
 
−
#* Episode / Season Order: Ordered by movie.order value
 
−
#* Most Rated: Ordered by rating value
 
−
#* Popularity: Ordered by views value
 
−
#* Release Date: Ordered by movie release date value.
 
−
# You can also select a secondary ordering criteria, in case some movies match the primary order criteria
 
−
# It is also possible to define a maximum number of results to be returned by the criteria. By default, it is set to 0 (unlimited).
