To have the ability to stop an event once it has started, in case the wrong event has been programmed in error

With the ability to either reset or stop events when they go off track will allow us to correct issues on our end also having a way to delete an event and re-enter the event in a way the system can determine to play the correct event.

We tried to override the event, but it's like a runaway train. Once the event starts, there is no way to override or stop it. We ended up creating a new event and scheduled it at the end of a repeat show this system played in error. We had promoted the time for this show and had to apologize and push the latest show back a few hours.
