Ad avail blanking and blackout

You can turn on one or both of the following features to blank out the content associated with a SCTE-35 event:

  • Blackout”: Blank out the content for other types of SCTE-35 messages such as chapters and programs.

  • Ad avail blanking”: Blank out the content for a SCTE-35 message that is considered an “ad avail” (according to the mode, Getting ready: Setting the ad avail mode).

In both features, the handling is one of the following.

  • Replace the video content associated with the event with an image you specify or with a black image.

  • Remove the audio associated with the event.

  • Remove the closed captions associated with the event.
