Technical Overview/Help
How And What 's Delivered
Six shows are delivered each week. The 5 weekday shows and a weekend 'reheated' show which features the best of the weekday shows. The shows are delivered via FTP. Content feeds are pulled by stations at 5pm and 7:30pm pacific time the day prior to broadcast Sunday ~ Thursday with positive verifications delivered to a nominated email address so you know the show is ready to roll. The show is also available for emergency manual download if needed.
The amount of show content varies by affiliation level but 'local where it counts' affiliates get options that include local client adlib commercials, interviews for major events or a local contest segment.
Non localization affiliates get 16 files each week day. 12 content segments and 4 teases. You choose how may hours to run the show over because you place the content. The weekend 'reheated' show is 12 segments.
We also have available for all affiliates artist intros which you can elect to place. If you use Linker its a snap to make intros work automatically. The telescoped hour on the affiliates page is a 100% automated show with full 'local where it counts' customization.
