Content Duplication in a Broadcast

Situation Description

On this page, the user can learn about the **Content Playback Frequency** functionality, which is used to configure the appearance of multiple content units within a single broadcast. This functionality allows configuring content and its display within one broadcast page.

Action Algorithm

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.

Example of the “Broadcasts” section and “Create” tab

After opening the **Create** tab, a broadcast creation window will appear. In this window, the user must create a zone where content will be placed.

Example of the “Add Zone” icon

In the created zone, the user must add content (e.g., an image or video) by dragging it from the content list on the right side of the screen.

Example of adding content

After adding content to the zone, the user must click on the content. This opens the content settings control panel, which replaces the content list on the right side of the screen with content configuration options.

Example of content settings display

For the content playback frequency feature to work correctly, the user must uncheck **“Place content continuously over time (auto calculation)”**. This action enables manual control over time intervals.

Example of the checkbox “Place content continuously over time (auto calculation)”

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 appear below the zone in the lower part of the screen. This area displays both the current and the newly added content.

Example of added content on the page

After selecting the next content item, the user must click on it again in the broadcast zone to access the broadcast settings. Then, go to the **Content Settings** block.

Example of the “Content Settings” block

In this block, find and click the **Add** button under the **Duplicate Content** parameter.

Example of the “Add” button for “Duplicate Content”

After clicking this button, the content will be copied and added below the two original content items. The screenshot shows the display after duplicating the content.

After finishing the configuration, be sure to scroll down and click the **Save** button to apply the settings to the page.
