Situation Description
On this page, the user can ознакомиться with the **Content Playback Frequency** functionality, which is used to configure the playback of multiple content items within a single broadcast. This functionality allows configuring content and its display within a single broadcast page.
Action Algorithm
In order to use the **Content Playback Frequency in a Broadcast** functionality, the user must register/log in to the SmartPlayer personal account.
Next, go to the **Broadcasts** section and select the **Create** category.
After opening the **Create** tab, the broadcast creation window will appear. In this window, the user must create a zone where the content will be placed.
In the created zone, the user must add content (for example, an image or a video) by dragging it from the content list on the right side of the screen.
After adding content to the zone, the user must click on the content. This is required to open the content settings control panel, which will replace the content list on the right side of the screen with content configuration parameters.
For the content playback frequency configuration to work correctly, it is necessary to uncheck (remove the checkmark from) **“Place content continuously over time (auto calculation)”**. This action will allow the user to work directly with time intervals without system interference.
Next, click the **Save** button at the bottom of the screen to apply the settings.
Now the user needs to add another content item to the same broadcast page. The added content will be displayed at the bottom of the screen under the broadcast zone. This area will show the current and the newly added content.
After selecting the next content item, the user must click on it again in the broadcast zone to return to the broadcast settings configuration. Then the user needs to go to the **Content Settings** block.
In this block, find and click the **Add** button under the **Content Playback Frequency** parameter.
Content Playback Frequency Configuration
After clicking the **Add** button for the **Content Playback Frequency** parameter, a modal window with configuration parameters will open.
In this window, the user can configure the following parameters:
- page duration — allows viewing the current duration of content in the broadcast;
- number of content items displayed on the page — shows the current number of content items on the broadcast page;
- play content every interval — the user can manually specify the playback interval for the content added to the page and select the time unit. Available units: seconds, minutes, hours;
- playback start/end — allows selecting the playback start and end type from the list. Two options are available: **“From the start of the broadcast to the end”** and **“Manual settings”** (a configurable option that adds two active fields for editing);
- playback start — allows manually setting the start time for inserting content into the broadcast. Available only for manual configuration;
- playback end — allows manually setting the end time for content playback in the broadcast. Available only for manual configuration.
To complete the parameter configuration, the user must click the **Apply** button at the bottom of the modal window.
