Cisco Cisco StadiumVision Director

“Change both the “Default item Duration” and the item duration to “0.”

Put the playlist in a state and run the script state across 2 or more DMPs.

Duplicate the item in the playlist and change the per-item duration back to the length of the 

item from “0.” Now that there are 2 items in the playlist it will give the runtime a chance to sync when 
the items transition from one to the other.

SV-4K: When starting a script where the first state is a non-video state, multicast channel 

shows up for a second or so after script loads.

The following steps recreate the conditions when this defect occurs:

Log into Cisco StadiumVision Director.

Open the Control Panel.

Create a new non-video playlist with some images.

Create a new script, make sure that the first state uses a non-video state.

Save script.

Navigate to control and start script.

The runtime loading splash screen shows up. After that screen goes away, the user expects that the first 
script state will play. Instead, the user gets whatever multicast was playing before the script was started 
to run for a second or so.

As a best practice the first state in a script should be a “blank” state to allow all DMPs time 

to get into steady state before switching to a normal state. The duration of the empty state should be at 
least two minutes (120 seconds) depending on how many media players are in the system and the amount 
of time it takes to stage content.
