Emergency Broadcast
An emergency broadcast can be launched by any ETV Portal Server user with appropriate
permissions. It broadcasts a live or stored emergency broadcast to specified VBricks or STBs
in case of an emergency. The broadcast is launched instantly, for a specified duration, and
preempts all other broadcasts. (Any schedules whose start times occur during an emergency
broadcast are discarded. ) It is not subject to copyright restrictions or expiration dates. When
done (or manually stopped) all preempted schedules automatically resume. Emergency
broadcast templates are pre-defined in advance by administrators as explained in the ETV
Portal Server Admin Guide.
Note Emergency broadcast streams are shown only on monitors or TVs attached to VBricks
and STBs respectively. They are not shown on the Portal Server user interface. If you are
watching a stream in the embedded player on the user interface browser, you will not
see an emergency broadcast (except as selectable live stream).
