| ====== Bandwidth limitation. ====== | ====== Bandwidth limitation. ====== | ||
| + | In the CMS, when content is broadcast (a playlist, a page, a video or an image), the screen or player that will broadcast it must first download it. This download then uses the bandwidth of the Internet connection of the room where the screen is located. | ||
| - | In the CMS, when a playlist, page, video or image is sent to a screen, the screen displaying the content has to download it. This download then consumes the bandwidth of the Internet connection of the room where the screen is located. | + | In some cases, this bandwidth consumption can have an impact on other equipment or users requiring the Internet connection (cash desk, payment terminal, servers, backup procedure, etc.). |
| - | For a number of reasons, this bandwidth consumption can interfere with the operation of other devices using the network on the premises where your equipment is located (cash registers, credit card machines, office network, copiers, etc.). | + | It is therefore possible to limit or prohibit bandwidth consumption when downloading media (hosted images and videos) during one or more time slots that you can define. |
| - | In the CMS, it is possible to limit or prohibit bandwidth consumption when downloading media (images and videos hosted on the cms) within a user-defined time slot. | + | <WRAP center round important 90%>Warning: this function is not able to limit bandwidth usage for all external content (web zone, youtube zone, google docs, IPTV, RSS, widgets...).</WRAP> |

| - | **Bandwidth consumption ban:** images and videos will not be downloaded during the defined period. | + | <WRAP center round info 60%> |
| + | If bandwidth consumption is prohibited: content updates that do not require heavy downloading **remain possible** (e.g. deleting an item from the playlist, adding an item already present on the screen/player storage, changing the content of a text zone, changing the layout of zones on a page, editing schedules, etc.). The screenshot function remains fully functional. | ||

| - | **Limitation of bandwidth consumption:** a capped part (according to the user's choice) of the bandwidth will be allocated to downloading the media in the playlist. Downloading will take longer, but will allow other devices in the room to access the internet connection without interruption. | + | **Limitation of bandwidth consumption:** Bandwidth usage will be limited. Downloading will take longer, but will allow broadcast content to be updated while leaving bandwidth available for other equipment and users of the Internet connection. |
