Chronolog: SavePoint v1.1.5 Adds YouTube Uploads, Smart Thumbnails, and Rich Discord Embeds

SavePoint v1.1.5, Build 211, improves how online station owners publish pre-rendered content to YouTube and announce programming through Discord.

This release focuses on three major improvements.

Upload Pre-Rendered Videos Directly to YouTube

Pre-rendered tracks can now be uploaded to YouTube without leaving SavePoint.

The upload dialog automatically pulls the title, artist, album, tags, and copyright notice from the track library. Uploads begin as private videos and include progress tracking, cancellation controls, and a direct link to the uploaded video.

SavePoint can also add each video to an existing YouTube playlist or create a new playlist automatically.

Select and Prepare Smarter Thumbnails

YouTube thumbnails now follow the same image inheritance system used during broadcasts:

1. Track
2. Playlist
3. Segment
4. Station master

Station owners can also select another image from the media library.

When an image exceeds YouTube’s 2 MB thumbnail limit, SavePoint automatically resizes it to 1280 × 720 before uploading it.

Publish Richer Discord Announcements

Discord announcements can now use rich embeds instead of plain text.

Each channel can be configured independently, with options to include the track background image and display it as either a large banner or compact thumbnail.

The embed builder combines track metadata, album artwork, and station branding into a more polished announcement.

Additional Improvements

SavePoint v1.1.5 also introduces:

• Live YouTube title and description updates
• Improved OAuth token handling
• Smarter pre-render invalidation
• More stable stream and segment transitions
• Waveform visualizer fixes
• Server-side Google Font caching and rendering
