✅ What is a Reusable Segment?

Reusable Segments allow you to centrally manage content that you want to broadcast in multiple channels. When you copy a channel, all steps and their settings—like transitions, durations, and backgrounds—are copied into a segment that can be reused and customized.

⚠️ Note: Ticker feeds and any existing Reusable or Scheduled Segments in the lineup will not be copied over.
