This means a customId functions more like a tag where reporting on a customId can
return multiple unique items. Logic for RSS sequences differs because the RSS GUID is used as
a unique identifier and is used to prevent creating different reporting items when RSS feeds update.additionalReadOnlyData in cloud configuration to mark custom data fields as read-only.
For example additionalReadOnlyData=LicenceID in active cloud configuration would prevent users changing the LicenceID field in item data.

This is to support additional addresses for already populated blobstores.events to healthcheck API response.sequenceIdOverride to enable quick override of a screens sequenceId without losing

The itemId is now used to look up the ItemInfo metadata which includes the sequenceId.
This results in more compact storage in the legacy database and more consistent results when comparing data with the new data warehouse.
Note, if an itemId is duplicated across multiple sequences then the wrong sequence may be referenced. This regresses change made in 5.3.0.sequenceId from StackItem.sequenceId sent from players in display reports is ignored and new players will not send it.data.url. This should resolve replication
issues with URLs over 512 characters and previous issues with 1024 character URLs.sequenceId in cloud config screen defaults.
Note: desiredPlayer will also need to be set to start playback.fullId and automatically reapplied when the DataSource is
saved or accessed via DataSourceDao. This fixes the MongoDB 1024 byte key length limitation.templateGroupIds and widgetGroupIds

If blobDataCorruption > 0 it is likely file storage on the local device is faulty.
Please note, this value will also be incremented if a proxy manipulates downloaded data.
Some mobile data providers re-encode images and videos to make them smaller. The player regards this as a Man In The Middle (MITM) attack
and will delete the data and increment blobDataCorruption.
Default periodic check time is 03:00 (based on screen TimeZone). To change set corruptionCheckTime for example corruptionCheckTime=07:00
to disable, set corruptionCheckTime=disable. Please be aware that is does not affect existing verification checking
