Uploads keep running while you move around the dashboard
Uploading a large video meant staying on the Content page until it finished. Uploads ran in the background there, but moving to Screens or Playlists loaded a new page and cancelled every upload still in progress. For a long video over an ordinary connection, that is a real chunk of someone’s afternoon spent not using Screenly.
Content is now part of the same single-page dashboard as the rest of Screenly, so uploads keep running while you go elsewhere. Close the upload dialog, go set up a playlist, and the upload carries on. Reopen the dialog to see its progress and an estimate of the time left, or start more uploads.
Moving between Content and a single item no longer reloads the page either, so browsing your library feels like one place rather than a series of loads.
