OnAir TV Features
Control Your Content
Sophisticated MAM for Centralized TV Asset Management
Clear overview
The media library acts as a centralized hub for all your TV assets like movies, series, documentaries, promos, and clips. Powerful search, filter, and sorting tools make it easy to locate and organize content. Built-in import features and batch editing tools streamline asset management, saving time and enhancing efficiency.
A clear overview of items, categories, series, and all your other assets allows you to organize your assets in a logical manner.
Edit and preview your videos
The editor is the section where you can assign metadata to your items. You can also preview items in the editor with frame accuracy.
Events
Events allow seamless integration of additional assets such as promos, logos, and commercial blocks into items. When an item with events is scheduled, all assigned elements are automatically incorporated, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow. Use Events to effortlessly create items that include logos, promos, or commercial breaks, streamlining your scheduling process.
Soft-parting of items
It is easy to soft-part items using the editor. By dividing an item into multiple virtual parts, you can seamlessly ingest commercial blocks, SCTE markers, promos, or other assets in between these designated parts.
Legal
The legal section will help you to stay in compliance
In the legal section you can store the legal details of your items. The planner will always enforce these legal rules. As a result, you are always sure to be in compliance.

EPG templates make it easy to enter the correct EPG information.
OnAir TV can generate EPG in many native formats and the EPG files can be send directly to your provider.
