TIME SAVERS |
 |
Directly feed raw syndicated promos into AutoPromo. This is a huge time saver —
no longer is it necessary to ingest the raw promos into an editor before
beginning any work.
|
|
|
Promos are edited automatically — just mark a few edit points on the raw promo
and AutoPromo does the rest. Once the user marks the edit points, AutoPromo will
use those same points to produce all versions of the promo. There is no need to
repeat the edit points for other versions (such as a Monday, Tomorrow, and Today).
|
|
|
Share
your edit sessions with other stations. With AutoPromo's revolutionary edit sharing feature, a single user can
complete promos for an entire station group in one edit session.
The remote stations have their promos completed and waiting, all
with station specific branding, without any user intervention! |
|
|
|
AutoPromo creates “dublists” to minimize time filing spots. AutoPromo remembers
your house numbers, names, SOMs and EOMs. With dublists, users are able to file
promos up to 40 percent faster.
|
|
|
AutoPromo is built around a fully functional video editor. Not only do we give
you an automated process for editing your syndicated promos, we also provide a fully
functional non-linear editor.
|
|
|
A set of six promos can be completed with your station's tags in less than three
minutes. Adding two logos only adds another minute to your entire edit
session. Click here to see
AutoPromo's control surface.
|
|
|
AutoPromo’s innovative learning features “remember” how you like to edit. Just
set some key parameters once and AutoPromo will remember those settings so you
do not have to repeat those steps ever again. |
|
|
|
VERSATILITY |
|
|
AutoPromo is extremely versatile, with the ability to import and export
virtually any media file. Supported files include TGA, TIFF, MOV, AVI, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, WMV, MP3, AC3, WAV and MPG.
|
|
|
AutoPromo provides independent audio and video edit points as well as automated
mixing of your audio levels. |
|
|
|
Key station logos (up to two) over the promo at frame-accurate in and out
points.
|
|
|
Combine your video tags and up to two keyed logos into the same promo.
|
|
|
Choose from more than one hundred high-quality transition effects. |
|
|
|
EASE OF USE |
|
|
Anyone with a working knowledge of Microsoft Windows can use AutoPromo
effectively — anyone can produce professional quality promos within minutes. |
|
|
|
AutoPromo requires only one user for just a few minutes. There is no need to
assemble a production team for control room editing or to schedule an edit suite
and a professional video editor to produce promos. |
|
|
|
FEWER ERRORS |
|
|
With the use of dublists, the filing information is already entered; this
provides a reduced risk of typos, entering a wrong house number or time code,
filing an errant promo or airing outdated promos. |

AUTOPROMO OPTIONAL FEATURES |
| Automated Output Options
Depending on your station's workflow, AutoPromo can offer a variety of ways to
output your completed promos. A station can choose to do any of the following:
- Layback to tape at frame-accurate time codes. This feature comes standard with
AutoPromo. When combined with AutoPromo's dublists, filing times are reduced by
50 percent.
- VTR emulation option. With this option, promos can be filed directly into the
station's playback system without ever laying back to tape. When combined with
dublists, ingesting promos into your playout system takes 80 percent less
time.
- VDCP support. If your station's playout system supports VDCP clip transfers, we
can provide this optional feature for AutoPromo.
