OAS Playout - the future

Here you can find a summary of the new things happening now and in the future to OAS Playout - in chronological order.

Advert Scheduling

This would be the next major significant addition to Playout - it's currently still some way off despite me having discussed it informally with a number of our beta testers during mid 2004. The idea (as the name suggests) would be to provide some mechanism of generating advert schedules - possibly as short playlists or dedicated 'advert lists' which can be played out to form an ad break in it's entirity. Previously I'd considered a 'points' based system reflecting frequency of advert and peak/off peak times however I'm open to ideas as to a good means of handling this. Thoughts on the forum pages would be good.
