Инструкция по работе виджета событий/en

== Widget Description == This widget allows users to utilize event functionality across multiple devices simultaneously. That means, if users have several devices/screens, each playing its own stream, a button press on the remote control will trigger the widget to simultaneously start playing the desired event on all three devices, interrupting the current broadcast. After the event playback is complete, the widget stops functioning and the original broadcasts on the devices resume.

== Adding the Widget to the Personal Account == To add this widget to the personal account, the user must request it from the SmartPlayer support team. It will be provided as a ".zip" archive.
