GMR – Disabling a data point continues to report.
GMR – Multiple values being reported for device total usage data point.
GMR – Temperature data point doesn’t return a value.
GMR – HDMI source connection/disconnection does not trigger data point to be reported to telemetry SDK.

New Features:
CMS:
New configurable timer for the ‘Player not seen’ alarm available on the CMS Player Manager which can be set to a minimum of 5 minutes and a maximum of 12 hours.
Added the ability to generate unique URLs for each player based on PLI Key Value pairs. The PLI keys are selected during content creation and values get added to compute final URL by players during playback. This allows users to have a single URL yet display content specific to each display by enabling differentiation at third party content server. This feature will be available only on SoC for now and will be added to NTBs in a future release.
SoC:
Append PLI values configured on SoC players as URL query parameters for configured External Web Page playlist items.
4K videos are now supported on LG webOS 4.0 and 4.1 platform only. For gapless playback using 4K videos, please refer to SoC content authoring guidelines.
Current time and timezone are now displayed on SoC On Screen Diagnostics.
Improvements:
SOC:
Improvement to ‘CMS Connection’ property on the OSD view to include a date/time stamp of when a player last connected to the CMS or disconnected from the CMS.
Improvement where SoC players now notify the CMS Player Manager by raising a download alarm in Amber to indicate a Channel is being downloaded by a SoC player. The alarm is later lowered and shown in Green once the Channel download is complete.
Third Party Platform Limitations:
Wi-Fi on SoC: We are aware of an issue impacting stability on LG SoC players when connecting via Wi-Fi. We are working with LG to identify the root cause and resolve this issue. In the meantime, please utilise ethernet for LG SoC devices wherever possible.
