<\/meta>Scheduler lets broadcasters have intimate control over how their viewers access their content. Creating a video playlist and scheduling it to play on a website at a certain time for a set duration is what the scheduling <\/a>is all about. In simple words, you can control when and for how long a specific part of the content is to be viewed by the user. Basically, you can combine several video files together to present a TV channel-like experience for your viewers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delivering content can be a tricky business especially when you\u2019re dealing with high-volume content. Without compromising on the quality, providing your customers the ability to offer uninterrupted, smooth streaming, at a lightning-fast speed is where the real struggle lies. One of the most important things to ponder upon is that an appropriate content scheduler is one of the most important steps for the fast delivery of content to the client. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5centsCDN Scheduler <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With the advanced technology of scheduled playlists, there is so much that can be done when it comes to live streams and other content to be published. It is a game-changer in a way that offers the provider the ability to control the content that is offered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the features offer real-time updates in the network in case of any changes in the schedule along with \u200b\u200ban up-to-date, automated content delivery by offering a platform to users where files can be stored that are to be scheduled and broadcasted at a certain time for a set duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live stream schedule vs live stream publish<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With 5centsCDN\u2019s live stream scheduling the provider can offer their viewers an extraordinary streaming experience. Not only that, but It also enables the customer to switch to the best performance CDN Nodes based on their location, device, and bandwidth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, the live stream publish feature offers a seamless experience of the Publish method that helps switch between different stream sources. Instead of switching between items in a playlist, this technique uses publish Livestream to playlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powerful scheduler features<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Along with current playing files and current playing schedules, 5centsCDN offers their users the ability to experience the file resume option after the live session ends. Let\u2019s assume we have scheduled a file and live stream. When we publish a Livestream, the scheduler stops the current playing file and starts the live streaming automatically. When the stream ends, the scheduler will resume the file where it stopped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also offer you the ability to pick a certain point where you want the video to start and the exact duration. We have also enabled playlist reload as well as restart options for our users. With this, your viewers can enjoy your streams in any time zone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schedule OnTime – can be now specified with a repeat for a number of days. This way, you can focus on creating new content while your viewers are enjoying recorded streams. However, if the client needs to start from a new schedule, the playlist needs to be restarted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advance error log, added API\u2019s extension and improved scheduling update time are also a part of our scheduler updates. Not only that, the advanced alerts and notifications along with mitigation in case the scheduler loop is false helps keep the streams smooth and seamless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 5centsCDN, we\u2019re running redundant servers that we call playlist clusters. If one goes down, there will always be a backup so your streaming will never be interrupted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the feature of direct publishing we offer content on loop. For instance, there are certain streaming platforms that require you to offer 24\/7 content. To help you work around this condition, our scheduler feature lets you schedule the content non-stop, at any time of the day and duration you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlimited duration<\/em><\/strong>: We don\u2019t believe in putting limits on the amount of content that your viewers can enjoy. Hence 5centsCDN has no limit per file. Other than that, you are able to schedule unlimited video files without any hassle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use the Feed Status page to check the current progress on the ingestion of your content feed. When you upload a feed, Direct Publisher validates and then ingests each content item in it. Once you upload a feed URL, it takes approximately 5\u201310 minutes for this page to begin reporting the ingestion status of content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a content item has successfully been ingested, a green circle with a checkmark is displayed to the left of the item. Otherwise, a yellow or red icon is displayed next to the item, indicating an issue that needs to be resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
