Cisco Cisco StadiumVision Director

Updates to playlists tied to a script that have all content items requires no human intervention.

Imported playlist are easily identifiable as “external playlist.”

Indicates playlist with missing content.

Warn user when trying to assign a missing content playlist to template.

Warn user when starting a script with missing content playlist.

Works in the same way as a manually created playlist, but with more granularity.

Automatic insertion of PoP tag for each time slot play.

The API automatically creates the playlist, which you can easily identify by an icon that tags it as an 
external playlist source (

The playlist is populated with existing content in Cisco StadiumVision Director, and you are alerted to 
any missing content in the playlist by a red box around the external playlist icon on the Content screen. 
The missing content item is identified with a question mark. Once you import any missing content, it is 
automatically linked to the external playlist.

Current proof of play reporting is fully supported for external playlist sources and PoP tags are 
automatically created for specified sponsor IDs. Any missing content is not included in the PoP report.

Beginning in Cisco StadiumVision Director Release 3.2, an API is introduced to support integration of 
Point of Sale (POS) vendor data for use in the External Content Integration feature. This method of POS 
data integration provides a more flexible way of creating and updating menu boards using the Widgets 
tool independent of the legacy DMB application. 

The DMB application currently supports a more tightly-coupled integration with Micros and Quest POS 
vendors that allows for dynamic content updates along with support of in-suite ordering capabilities. The 
POS API does not support in-suite ordering, but would allow for more open integration of POS data from 
other POS vendors that can conform to the XML schema supported by Cisco StadiumVision Director.
