 ## Event media types in Zapp
 Zapp assigns a video type based on the fields. It takes a few minutes before changes to media item fields are available in Applicaster apps due to caching. Applicaster Zapp therefore also uses `VCH.ScheduledStart` and `VCH.ScheduledEnd` to determine when an event is live.

+### With contentTypes
+Where a contentType is defined in the JW platform the Zapp middleware will use this to replace the `live-` part of the Zapp video type. eg if a live asset has a content Type `liveEvent` Zapp will use the three video types:
+`liveEvent-future`
+`liveEvent-now`
+`liveEvent-vod`
+This can be used to manage live assets with content type metadata and allow for multiple live workflows and application logic.

+URL signing is enabled by default on the Applicaster Zapp Middleware. Signed URLs are automatically used by the middleware based on the API keys provided at the time of setup. This means URL signing can simply be enabled on the JW Platform and used within Applicaster apps.

 ## How to apply geo blocking?
 Applicaster Zapp supports [JW geo blocking rules](https://docs.jwplayer.com/platform/docs/protection-set-geoblocking-rules-for-videos). Applying these rules automatically removes country-specific media items from playlists based on the viewer's location.
