I expect you've got regions with very long durations?

The client will finish playing the current layout completely before it changes to the new content that it has downloaded. So say you have a media item on the current layout with a duration of 600 seconds, it will take 10 minutes after the update has applied before you'll see your changes.

You can force it to reload the layout by pressing 'i' then 'r' then 'n' then 'i' on the keyboard - but assuming it's all configured correctly it will do it itself when the current layout finishes playing.

Hi Alex,
Yes, You are right, it's because of wrong scheduling and everything is working fine now.Thanks for the reply.
Regd.media you mean first it will download the video then starts playing it ?
There is no option for Live streaming the video ?

The client will always download media before it begins playing it. There's no streaming support.
