Array Level Configuration
TME/SCE From the TME/SCE drop-down list, select Enable for MystroMDN for Stream Control Events
(SCE) or Enable for OpenStream for Trick-Mode Events (TME).
Enabling TME requires that the stream service and LSCP or RTSP service deliver more CORBA
events to the Stream Event Channel. These extra events are triggered during the transitions from one
content to another in the play list of the stream. The CORBA event for stream destroy also carries
the history of all transitions of the stream.
Enabling SCE allows real-time splicing of MPEG-2 transport streams for digital program insertion
(including advertisement insertion) in live content as well as content recorded for the purpose of
enabling time-shifted on-demand services. Pre-roll, post-roll, and mid-roll placements of digital
program insertion is supported. The Vault detects the SCTE-35 cues and processes them at the time
of ingest. The StreamExtChannel event channel on the CORBA NotificationService is used to send
ContentSignalingEvents that contain the SCTE-35 cue information to the backoffice.
Note The SCTE-35 cue message cannot be greater than 400 bytes.
Note The configuration change for the ISA Stream Extensions feature requires that the ISA service
is restarted on both the master Vault and the Master Streamer. To identify the master Streamer
and master Vault, use the CDSM Monitor Services page to find the Streamer running the
master stream service and the Vault running the Content Store master. See the “Services
Monitor” section on page 5-40 for more information. To restart the ISA service, choose
Maintain > Services, select the check box for ISA, and click Submit.
