Set the extend Opencast CMS event interval

Applies to: Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nano, Pearl Nexus.

A button in the Admin panel — or on the device screen, on Pearl devices that have one — lets users extend the length of an event that is in progress. Pearl Nexus is headless and has no device screen, so use the Admin panel, Epiphan Edge, or third-party control. By default, the event is extended in 5 minute intervals each time the button is selected. Using the Admin panel, you can set the amount of time the event is extended to 5, 10, or 15 minute intervals. Events cannot be extended beyond the start of the next scheduled event.
