a. In the Filler Content field, type the first few characters of the content object name, a list of content
objects beginning with those letters are displayed. Choose the content object.
b. From the Channel drop-down list, select the channel for the Filler Content, or select “All” for all
channels for the selected day.
c. Click Add Fillers.
Alternatively, click Select Multiple Channels. The “Select the channels to add fillers” dialog box
is displayed. Check the check box next to each channel that is to receive the filler content, or check
the Select All check box. Click Submit. The filler content is propagated to all empty timeslots. To
cancel the operation, click Cancel.
Note Once the filler content is submitted by either method, all timeslots that are populated with filler
content display as “Scheduled Content.”
Step 13 Continue to fill any remaining timeslots.
Changing Current Timeslots
A current timeslot is a timeslot that contains the present time. For example, if the time is 13:15, the
timeslot from 13:00 to 13:30 is the current timeslot. Following are the rules about changing the current
timeslot:
1. If content is playing, you can replace the current content with new content, but you cannot change
the start and end times. If the new content is shorter than the remaining time that was allotted for
the original content, the new content loops as necessary and terminates at the start time of the next
scheduled content. If the new content is longer than the remaining time that was allotted for the
original content, the new content will terminate at the start time of the next scheduled content.
2. If no content is playing, content added to the current timeslot will automatically get the current time
as the start time, but you can edit the end time. The new content will loop as necessary and terminate
at the configured end time.
