Master Control Workstation
More than 100 TV stations are using Softron's playout applications to broadcast their channel 24/7 thanks of its easy to use scheduler.
In the past 2 years, we have added even more features for this workflow, such as the support for SCTE triggers, sidecar files for CC, a traffic option with Wide Orbit integration, remote control, and more...
What can you see here?
In this workstation, we can demonstrate how OnTheAir Video can be used for scheduling your station's programs for unattended 24/7 broadcast. Import the WideOrbit traffic playlists in OnTheAir Video, trigger SCTE, handle breaking news events, and more...
