Record & Prep Manager (RPM)
This browser-based prep tool improves flexibility, simplifies workflows, and enhances usability for broadcast operators.
Crispin’s Record and Prep Manager (RPM) unifies the features of our System2000 tools, Record Scheduler and Dubber, into a single, browser-based platform.

Scheduled one-time and recurring recording

Crash (manual) recording

Prep functionality for review, segmenting and trimming

Centralized resource management for all available server ports
Confidence Monitor
RPM integrates Harmonic’s Confidence Monitor functionality directly within the interface. This feature provides a low-resolution, high-quality RTC stream from the Spectrum X I/O port, viewable via standard web browsers or directly within the RPM window.
Use the embedded monitor to:
- View real-time activity on any port
- Perform prep functions without requiring a full broadcast-quality prep station
Resource Management
RPM includes a built-in timeline view that displays all activity across server ports, enabling centralized and efficient resource management. Operators can easily monitor, manage, and assign server port usage from a single, consolidated interface.
Recording & Prep Functionality
RPM automatically assigns resources based on current schedules and port availability for both scheduled recordings and prep sessions.
Operators can:
- Select completed or in-progress linear recordings directly from the timeline for review and prep.
- Instantly initiate a prep session on any available port
Every feature is thoughtfully designed to streamline operations and reduce manual tasks, enhancing productivity and minimizing room for error.
