And with its responsive web-based interface, it’s available from anywhere, even on mobile!

Simply schedule your content and it will be played back on your channel and live stream, published to your bulletin board, updated in your web content library, transcoded for video-on-demand, available in X-list format for Rovi, and included in your program reports. One step does it all with Cablecast.
Enjoy zero extra steps to getting your content from your server to the web. Cablecast comes complete with pre-built web content pages that automatically populate with your schedule, live stream, and video-on-demand library. Easily customize these pages for your brand through the Cablecast web interface or use our new and improved APIs to pull the information from these pages into your existing website. The possibilities are endless, but getting started couldn’t be easier.
CHECK YOUR WEB PRESENCE OFF THE LIST
Cablecast video servers give you a station bug for branding your channel. They also give you bug text which you can run in a different corner simultaneously. Best of all, it can generate a crawl at the same time with both background and foreground graphics.
