About Whiteouts
Whiteout mode prevents all injected audio from being played on the stream. Instead, your terrestrial audio will be played. Setting up whiteouts will require some effort on the part of your engineers / traffic supervisors, but once set up it provides a lot of flexibility and does not require access to the streaming computer.
The station engineer, or whoever handles the AMS, creates two new carts from a promo / station liner / PSA with modified title fields. Place these carts in the AMS category normally defined for these types of audio. Set the first cart's title to START WHITEOUT, and the other to END WHITEOUT.
To begin a whiteout, play the START WHITEOUT cart in the stream. To end it, play the END WHITEOUT cart.
If you or your team experience have any questions regarding whiteout functionality, please contact AmperWave Support and we would be happy to assist.
