"cue-in-id": "<unique_scte35_identifier>",
"cue-in-position": "START|END"
}Logo
Ability to show or not the logo on each content. If missing considered by default as "logo": true :
{
"uuid": "9cc2e369-88e2-401e-a253-edad2a4d31c9",
"media_uuid": "1b1bf470-527a-4c6e-8f19-1d369f2eabf1",
...,
"logo": true|false
}Interlaced content
Ability to deinterlace a content. If missing considered by default as "deinterlace": false :
{
"uuid": "9cc2e369-88e2-401e-a253-edad2a4d31c9",
"media_uuid": "1b1bf470-527a-4c6e-8f19-1d369f2eabf1",
...,
"deinterlace": true|false
}Cut a content
Ability to cut a content. If missing considered by default as no cut ( "cut": -1 ), value in milliseconds :
{
"uuid": "9cc2e369-88e2-401e-a253-edad2a4d31c9",
"media_uuid": "1b1bf470-527a-4c6e-8f19-1d369f2eabf1",
...,
"cut": 42000
}cut (valeur en millisecondes, défaut=-1) : permet d'indiquer à quelle durée le fichier doit être tronqué (attention ce sont des millisecondes).
Si absent ou valeur <=0, le fichier ne sera pas tronqué.
Declare a LIVE content
Ability to declare a live content, it is a special broadcast element that is not related to a specific media file.
Therefore, a specific identifier must be used, to allow the playout scheduler to recognize it and act as a placeholder for a live event.
When an element is a LIVE element, the media_uuid field must be set to null and an optional field has to be declared live: true .
The uuid field must remain unique within the schedule.
The absence of the live attribute has to be considered as live: false
{
"uuid": "9cc2e369-88e2-401e-a253-edad2a4d31c9",
"media_uuid": null,
"live": true,
...,
