Main Features and Advantages
- Minimal changes to current news production:
- NewsHub allows for centrally coordinated lists for regional, national, or local blocks. Local segments blocks are pre-recorded or are taken live. This allows for unique local and commercial break content at each site.
- National and regional content is shared via streaming or via content file delivery.
- The shared newscasts act as if originating at each local NewsWheel site, allowing for local news content and commercials to also be added at designated ‘local’ times.
- User Access Options – Studio, Production and Master Control can all view the playlist in Crispin’s web browser playlist, webRPX.
- User options and privileges can be configured by each user’s log in credentials.
- Playlist includes ‘edit protection’ for site operators during playlist blocks they do not have access to edit.
- Local producers or talent can view a countdown time to local segment start.
