Channel Ad Markers

1min

The Ad Markers tab is only shown for relevant Channels. If an Adaptive or Transcoded Channel has a stream that contains Ad Markers, then information about these markers is shown in the Ad Markers tab. HLS ad markers are written as plaintext into the outgoing XML manifests of the transmuxed HLS.
﻿
The following table describes the information shown for each Ad Marker in the stream.
Parameter
Description
Bitrate
The name of the 'component' on which the ad marker was written
Time
The timestamp of the ad marker.

The type of ad marker. Possible types are:
Cue-out – marks the beginning of the ad insertion opportunity
Cue-in – marks the end of the ad insertion opportunity

Program
The elementary program that the SCTE marker is affecting.
