Setting Up an Intermission
If there is no content scheduled for a certain period of time, Producer enables setting an intermission source which automatically
plays:
MPEG-2 or MPEG 4 h264 file from a Vision
Multicast MPEG-2 source such as a DVB or Live MPEG channel
Unmanaged Live channels are also available for Intermission as well.
Perform these steps to set up an intermission:

Set the File or Live Feed options to indicate whether the intermission source is from a file or live feed. After making your
selection, do one of the following:
File: Select an Archive using the Content drop down menu. Select a file using the Name drop down.
Live Feed: Select a live channel from the Live drop down menu.
2.
Click Apply.
3.
Set the Enable Intermission setting to ON in the Intermission section and click Apply.
4.
Set the Stream Enable setting to ON to activate the Producer.
The Name and URL text boxes populate with the name and path of the intermission source. This source will play if there is no
scheduled content.
