Quick Launch Templates

1. QLT App Splash Screen

On the Comcast OTT platform, the technology called Quick Launch Template (QLT) allows the app provider self-service customization of the splash screen experience with the help of background images, foreground images, animations and text. There are two types of experiences to choose from.

• Static QLT
• Dynamic QLT

2. Static QLT

In this experience, the app would display the same image for all launch points. This is a great option to achieve consistency throughout the app.

To implement, please complete the following checklist:

• App development team to inform Comcast Partner Manager/Engineer of the desired experience
• App development team to host QLT JSON file and images to use in the experience
• App development team to construct the QLT JSON file, complying with the specifications in this document without contentURL
• App development team to provide URL to said QLT JSON file
• Comcast to validate the QLT JSON file
• Comcast to setup QLT configuration for the app
• App development team to test and confirm desired experience

Sample JSON response:

	{
		"enabledInApp": false,
		"enableRotation": false,
		"pages": [
			{
			"templateId": "fullscreen_image",
			"imageUrl": "https://example.com/image.png",
			"transitionTimeInMs": 3000
			}
		]
	}

3. Dynamic QLT

In this experience, the app would dynamically display a different image based on user interaction. This option allows a more responsive experience.

To implement this experience, please complete the following checklist.

• App development team to inform Comcast Partner Manager/Engineer of the desired experience, identifying each supported deeplink/launch point type (eg search, media playback, product detail page, menu, etc)
• App development team to host
  • Images
  • A web service that accepts Comcast standard URL format and returns a QLT JSON object, complying with the specifications here without contentURL
• App development team to provide URL to said web service
• Comcast to validate the QLT JSON service
• Comcast to setup QLT configuration for the app
• App development team to test and confirm desired experience

Sample JSON response:

	{
		"backgroundImageUrl": "https://example.com/background.png",
		"transitionTimeInMs": 3000,
		"enableRotation": false	,
		"pages": [
			{
			"templateId": "centered_image_with_caption",
			"imageUrl": "https://example.com/poster-image.png",
			"text": "Loading Example Movie Name..."
			}
		]
	}
