Ad insertion is a licensed feature. For more information on licensing, see Managing Licenses.

Synopsis

adinsertion ID start    
adinsertion ID stop 
adinsertion ID set parameter=value [parameter=value...]
adinsertion ID get [config, stats, all]
adinsertion ID clear

Actions

Action	Description
start	Starts the adinsertion source.
stop	Stops the adinsertion source.
set	Configures adinsertion source settings. A series of one or more `parameter=value` pairs can be provided at once. See Parameters below.
get	Display information on the adinsertion sources. You can select to display the configuration (config), stats, or all.
clear	Clears the adinsertion source's statistics.
help	Displays usage information for the adinsertion command.

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description/Values
name	n/a	A unique descriptive name of up to 63 characters. 'none' can be used to revert to the default name.
synchronization	auto	Options are: Auto - Auto-select the sync mode based on what SCTE-104 messages are being received. The priority of selected sync methods is as follows (in decreasing order): Alive, Time, System. Alive - Force the use of the received SCTE-104 alive_request_data() messages as the means to synchronize the time between the upstream SCTE-104 source and the Makito. Time Descriptor - Force the use of the received SCTE-104 insert_time_descriptor() messages as the means to synchronize the time between the upstream SCTE-104 source and the Makito. System - Use the local system time as the means to synchronize the time between the upstream SCTE-104 source and the Makito. NTP should be configured as the local time source. Note These modes only apply when time deferred SCTE-104 requests are requested from upstream SCTE-104 sources.
leapseconds	37	Leap seconds added since Jan 1, 1958 to convert UTC to TAI.
timedescperiod	0 (disabled)	Period in seconds to force the insertion of time_descriptor. Range from 0 (disabled) to 60.
eventreminders	3	Number of event reminders to send to downstream equipment. Range from 1 to 5.
messagedelta	2000 (without parameters)	Interval in ms between event reminders. Range from 100 to 10,000ms (with parameters).
