Upgrading to the latest version of PlayoutONE

Newer versions of PlayoutONE support simple, in-place upgrades that can — in many cases — be carried out yourself without any assistance from our support team.

If you need to avoid radio silence, make sure you have created a mixdown file to play from an alternative audio source while PlayoutONE is offline during the upgrade.

Check out this video to learn how to use a mixdown file to prepare for maintenance.
