Interruption function on the schedule
For example:
- This configuration on the calendar to interrupt a live program…
- … and this configuration at the level of the image (thumbnail) and text choice of the video player…
- … will display this result from 5 PM, with a 2-hour countdown in seconds visible on the player of your TV stream:
The countdown, once scheduled, works in correlation with stream interruptions if you set one (or more in succession, thus managing the overlap). Note: it takes 2 minutes for a scheduled interruption to be reflected in the countdown.
