Timing
.
Where
possible,
consistent
timeslot
lengths
gives
you
more
flexibility
in
the
scheduling
of
ads.
It
will
also
ensure
smoother
transitions
when
using
the
Continuity
Playlist
method
of
displaying
ads.
Scheduling
a
Live
Switch
Event
whose
Actual
Duration
Varies
Live
events
can
be
shorter
or
longer
than
the
time
you
originally
scheduled.
For
example
your
station
might
schedule
a
weekly,
two-hour
switch
to
the
camera
at
the
high
school
basketball
game.
If
the
game
runs
long
you
will
want
to
continue
to
broadcast
it.
If
the
game
ends
early
you
will
want
to
show
your
viewers
a
related
program.
One
way
to
control
what
you
broadcast
when
you
have
switched
to
a
live
event
is
to
schedule
the
event
for
less
time
than
you
expect
it
to
run,
then
lock
the
switch
manually
until
the
event
finishes.
The
server
will
still
play
the
event
after
the
switch
event,
but
viewers
will
continue
to
see
the
live
event.
1. On
the
Config
page,
go
to
Switch
Configuration
configuration
and
make
sure
manual
detection
of
switch
actions
is
on.
2. On
the
Programming
page,
schedule
the
switch
event.
3. Schedule
an
event
to
follow
the
switch
event.
4. After
the
switch
event
begins,
go
to
the
Dashboard
and
click
the
Lock
option
next
to
the
switch
output
you
want
to
lock.
5. When
the
live
event
ends,
release
the
switch
lock
by
clicking
the
Unlock
option
on
the
Dashboard.
The
event
you
scheduled
to
play
at
that
moment
is
immediately
visible
to
viewers
from
its
current
point
according
to
the
schedule.
Continuing
the
basketball
game
example,
suppose
you
expect
the
game
to
last
two
hours.
You
could
schedule
the
switch
event
to
the
game
camera
for
only
90
minutes
and
follow
it
with
a
switch
event
to
your
news
studio
feed
for
90
minutes.
After
the
basketball
game
begins,
lock
the
switch.
As
long
as
the
game
ends
after
90
minutes
but
before
three
hours
you
can
notify
your
news
studio
to
begin
post-game
coverage,
then
release
the
switch
lock.
Another
possibility
would
be
to
schedule
the
switch
to
the
basketball
game
camera
for
90
minutes,
followed
by
a
60-minute
continuity
playlist.
After
the
basketball
game
begins,
lock
the
switch.
Unlock
the
switch
when
the
game
ends.
If
the
game
ends
after
90
minutes,
viewers
will
see
the
entire
60-minute
playlist.
If
the
game
ends
after
two
hours,
they
will
see
the
playlist
from
the
middle
to
the
end.
If
the
game
ends
after
two
hours
and
25
minutes,
they
will
see
just
the
last
five
minutes
of
the
playlist.
