Scope of processing by feature

The SCTE-35 features have different scopes in terms of the output groups and outputs that they affect:

Blackout or ad avail blanking

Blackout applies at the global output level. If you enable blackout, all the relevant content in every output in every output group is blanked.

Ad avail blanking also applies at the global output level. If you enable blanking, all the ad avails in every output in every output group are blanked.

Decoration

Manifest decoration applies at the output group level. If you enable manifest decoration in an output group, all the outputs in that output group have their manifests decorated.

SCTE-35 passthrough or removal

SCTE-35 passthrough or removal applies at the output level. You can enable passthrough or removal in individual TS outputs. The messages are passed through or removed only in those outputs.
