With the optional Video Switch control module, the Digital Broadcaster can be configured to automatically switch away to another switch input source when no programming is airing, rather than simply playing a continuity file or playlist. For example, the Digital Broadcaster can automatically fill program gaps with a message board.
To enable continuity switching:
1. Go to Config → Channel Setup → Channels and click the Edit icon for the specific channel.
2. In the Continuity section, check Enable Continuity.
3. Select the desired input switch port from the Continuity Switch pull-down menu.
Note: For continuity switching to work properly, the channel’s Switch Input and Switch Output settings must match the switch input to which the channel is connected and the switch output that the video server channel typically plays out.
If you are already using a continuity file or playlist, continuity switching will not take effect until the current file or playlist completes or a scheduled program runs.
