Gap Filler (DSM-021-15) (rus)¶
{{Image("gap2_en.png")}}
Gap (or unexpected and non-planned pause) filling technology is necessary for radio stations with full or partial autonomous broadcasting. When a non-planned gap occurs (due to a breakdown in communication lines, planning errors, e.g.) the gap filler module automatically prepares a piece of schedule from the elements stored in the database. This audio content will fill the gap until the system gets a valid audio element from the schedule to play. There are different algorithms for filling long (minutes) and short (seconds) gaps. These algorithms are developed in a way to provide the smoothest possible fill in for the program failure. System administrator can set up parameters for the gap filler, which can vary for different time intervals. The administrator can assign special DB categories, filling skeletons and other parameters. Special diagrams are provided to indicate the effectiveness of the gap filler.
The Gap Filler module requires Media DB] (DSA-0700-15) or [wikiDiDevDocDSIIModulesDSA-3000-15_EN Media DB Engine Advanced] (DSA-3000-15) and the [wikiDiDevDocDSIIModulesDSM-005-15_EN Schedule browser module (DSM-005-15).
