Staging Content and the Flash Template
These procedures can be done ONLY by the Administrator Role.
The process of pre-
positioning content for the Flash template is called “Staging.”
Content Staging needs to be done daily, but you need only do this if content has
recently changed. Content includes playlists, tickers, and video files. The amount of
time required to preposition the content depends on a number of factors including
the content size, the number of DMPs, and the number of groups and zones.

You can schedule content to be staged at a particular time and interval each day.
When content is staged on a schedule, StadiumVision distributes content to the
Cisco DMPs that require that content within the next 24 hours.

For event scripts that are scheduled ahead of time, you do not need to restage
content. Content is not pre-positioned until it is needed. If content is not required for
a scheduled event in the specified time period, it is not distributed to the Cisco
DMPs.

Once the content has been downloaded to the Cisco DMPs for events occurring in
the next 24 hours, a LOCK icon will appear on the schedule screen for those
events. No additional content changes can be made to those event scripts.

Note that you need to stage the Flash template when you install new Cisco DMPs or
when the Flash template application is modified. See

New Staging Behavior for Release 2.3
When you start an event script, SV Director stages only the content necessary for
the selected event script. For example, consider the following case:
the selected event script. For example, consider the following case:
After the nightly staging task has run:
Schedule an event script A to run later the same day
Schedule an event script B to run before A
When SV Director stages the content for script B, it does not stage the content for
script A. Previously, SV Director would have copied the content for both events
during the staging for script B.

during the staging for script B.
StadiumVision Director no longer stages non-script content, such as the logo in the
channel banner, to the DMPs on each script start. The event operator will need to
manually stage non-script content (using Control Panel > Setup > Staging >
Content Staging) or wait until the nightly staging task runs for changes to the logo
to take effect. Refer to
