Media Blocking
Last updated: 2024-12-03 14:52:01

Overview

The media blocking feature allows you to block or unblock specific media content. When non-compliant media content is discovered, you can immediately block the content. Blocked media (including the original file and the transcoding outputs and screenshots generated from that file) can no longer be accessed, except in the VOD console. This prevents non-compliant media content from being spread and reduces the security risks faced by media platforms and damage to their brand image. After the content is reviewed and the risks are resolved, you can unblock the media to make it accessible again.

Use Cases

Use case
Description
Online education platforms
Because the target audience of online classes is mainly minors, online education platforms are very sensitive to non-compliant content. If, for example, a controversial topic or improper gesture appears during a live class, it should be blocked immediately.
TV stations and OTT
TV networks and OTT services have a large user base and face strict regulations. If a new TV show contains improper content, but it's missed by human moderators before being published, it's necessary to block the show immediately. Some old videos may also need to be blocked if non-compliant content is detected.
UGSV platforms
On UGSV platforms, to get more clicks, some users may publish sexually suggestive or other non-compliant content that is difficult to be detected by the moderation system. Such content has a bad influence, especially on minors, and needs to be blocked immediately.

How to Use

You can block the playback of a media or unblock it in the console or by calling the API. For more information, see the following:
