OnTheAir Video can be used for automated playout using its own scheduler or it can serve as a clip store for live news operations, local broadcast or live shows. Schedules can be created weeks in advance.

Thanks to its powerful and reliable playback engine, OnTheAir Video supports within the same playlist many video formats such as Apple ProRes, MPEG-4, MPEG IMX, DVCam, DV, DVCProHD, DVCPro, DVCPro 50, DV50, Photo JPEG, M-JPEG etc... OnTheAir Video can support full HD (optional) resolution playback using Apple ProRes, DVCProHD or uncompressed video clips. All codecs can be mixed but the frame size must be identical. Soon, you'll be able to mix not only codecs, but also different frame size (SD, HD1440, HD1920...) in a playlist. Downscaling and upscaling will be automatic.
Playout multiple streams on one Mac
With OnTheAir Video unequaled efficiency, you can playout 4 streams of HD simultaneously on one Mac. OnTheAir Video's playback engine (NAVI) has been developed since 2004 and used to be running on G4s (in SD of course) and is thus optimized to take advantages of multiple cores. It also doesn't use the Graphic card for the play out, and you do not need to have a monitor connected to your Mac to keep Open GL active as with other play out solutions.
