|
||
Campcaster is the first free and open radio management software that
|
||
provides live studio broadcast capabilities as well as remote automation
|
||
in one integrated system.
|
||
|
||
Campcaster has three audio outputs: one for live broadcasting, one for
|
||
previewing audio, and one for automated scheduled playback.
|
||
|
||
Major features of Campcaster:
|
||
* Live, in-studio playout. Campcaster Studio enables station personnel
|
||
to play out both individual sound files and playlists such as
|
||
advertising blocks or entire programs.
|
||
* Web-based remote station management. Authorized personnel can add
|
||
program material, create playlists, and schedule programming all via
|
||
Campcaster's web interface.
|
||
* Automation. Campcaster has a scheduler function that enables users to
|
||
set playlists for playback at a date and time of their choosing.
|
||
Playlists can be played back multiple times.
|
||
* Playlists. Campcaster allows users to create playlists that can be
|
||
either played on-demand in the Studio or in automated mode. Playlists
|
||
can be nested inside each other, so for example, a playlist with a
|
||
block of ads can be inside of a playlist with a music program.
|
||
* Centralized archives of station program material. Station personnel
|
||
have a searchable, browseable central archive that is accessible both
|
||
in the office and via the web.
|
||
* Solid, fast playback. Campcaster uses the popular Gstreamer
|
||
multimedia framework for clean, reliable, fast playback.
|
||
* Program sharing. Stations can share both playlists and files with a
|
||
designated, centralized 'network hub.' This enables the creation of
|
||
'virtual radio networks' connected via the Internet.
|
||
* Search-based backup. You can backup all station archives at the click
|
||
of a button, or only backup certain files based on search terms, so
|
||
that backup files can be made of only a certain program or of all
|
||
files created by a certain user.
|
||
* Localization. Campcaster is multilingual and supports Unicode. It
|
||
also is very easy to create language localizations.
|
||
* No restrictions. Multiple instances of the Campcaster Studio program
|
||
can access the same archive on the office network, and there are no
|
||
worries about hardware dongles or keys limiting access on multiple PCs.
|
||
* Innovative design. Campcaster's user interface – the product of
|
||
Parsons School of Design's “Design and Communication” program -
|
||
introduces a number of innovations, including the 'Scratchpad',
|
||
a list of recently-used files and playlists.
|
||
* Open, extensible architecture. Stations are free to extend and alter
|
||
all parts of the Campcaster program code, which makes extensive use
|
||
of XML-RPC APIs.
