### How to (Injects)
1. Add an inject, select the TV channel, and click to add video:
2. Select the video you want to use:
3. Once the video is attached you can modify:
* The **news ticker** by adding text in the content box
* An **overlay image**: click the image with a `+` icon. You can also set a time below for this image to appear and disappear
{% hint style="warning" %}
Ensure the video content is appropriately timed with the news ticket text for sufficient reading time
{% endhint %}
4. Send the TV channel to players. The default option here is to send to `All` . But you can send to a specific player by setting up a position if you wish.
#### Send to a "dedicated screen"
You can use positions to send TV channel injects to a "dedicated screen". To achieve this, do the following:
1. Create a TV position in `Configuration` in the Editor:
2. Instead of sending the TV channel inject to All, send it to the TV position:
3. In the Facilitator Dashboard, assign the desired player with the TV position:
Now, only players assigned with this position will receive TV injects. Only sending TV channel injects to some players can test teams' communication skills throughout an exercise.
