How to schedule tasks on DMM 5.4 Channels

abcronin · ‎05-30-2013

Hi csc

In DMM 5.4 the new concept of 'Channels' was introduced which uses 'subscriptions' for adding the content and channels to the DMP groups.

This is a great feature for creating a list of default and scheduled content and then having different dmp groups assigned to them, however I am having an issue with using it for common scheduled task like, LCD control and content deployments.

In the previous version I was able to schedule system tasks that affected multiple DMPs and groups but with this new subscription model I can only subscribe one channel to a DMP group at a time.

Does anyone know a way around this?

Cheers

Andy

Andy,

Greetings and my apologies. This is a known issue and is being addressed. The defect ID is

This functionality should be available in a future update release. I do not have a time table for this but it is good to know that it has been addressed and will be available soon.

Cheers!
