Defining Common Settings (Turnkey)

Updated

Common Settings is foundational and gives you the ability to enable overlays, set player details, update fonts, add support text and link, and more.

To access the Common Settings area, select "Features" under Customize Channel

The options presented are Event Timeline Features & Layout Features. Common Settings is the first option under Layout Features. Clicking on it will expand it.

Enable Overlays

Enabling Overlays allows you to add images to your player. Enabling this feature allows you to schedule or trigger an image/ad to appear over your event window.

The default for this setting is enabled

Enable Active Sessions

  • Active Sessions allows you to limit the number of sessions per account that can access the Channel. This feature is especially helpful for paid events to prevent the sharing of access links.  
  • When enabled, this enforces the account setting of active sessions on the page. If the account setting is set for 2, it will only allow 2 sessions at any time for an individual user to be able to access the page. You are able to set the number of sessions and change this number at any time in the Account Viewer Settings.
  • Helpful Tip: in order to collect media session analytics on individual Viewers, this feature needs to be enabled, regardless of whether there is an active session limit or not. This feature also requires additional set up in Viewer****Settings to function properly (you will need to set the limits that are being enabled)
