  // Retrieve the sample broadcast publishing point.
  BCPubPoint = (IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint)Server.PublishingPoints["Sample_Broadcast"];

  // Stop the publishing point.
  BCPubPoint.Stop();

  // Specify the publishing point path.
  BCPubPoint.Path = "C:\\WMPub\\WMRoot\\Serverside_Playlist.wsx";
