FEATURES

SPIN is a complete turn-key system used to create, distribute,
schedule and playback media in a broadcast television format.

Create - SPIN includes all the tools you need to produce broadcast quality visuals.
Elements are assembled, modified and layered using simple graphic techniques in
a highly productive environment. A wide assortment of easy-to-use tools and sophisticated
video effects promote creativity while offering flexibility. Simple procedures allow you
to create screens in minutes using libraries of attractive background graphics, CD quality music,
True Type fonts, animations and visual effects.

You can add to your library by creating, digitizing or importing materials using the wide array of supported formats. In minutes you will be playing the professional looking pages and sequences
you've created over your own cable channel.

Schedule - SPIN lets you generate multiple scripts that can be called for playback. Each player unit will have one or more scripts and the scheduling to control them. The combination can control the starting and ending times, or the time at which certain elements are substituted or deleted. They can be individual pages, groups of pages or the entire channel by time, day or date. You can schedule a program to begin weekdays at 8:00 AM but on weekends at 10:00 AM, with a different sequence of material for each part of the day or day of the week.

Distribute - SPIN includes many built-in options for managing, scheduling and delivering the information to the targeted audience. SPIN supports distribution over local area networks, wide area networks, the Internet, direct connections, dial-up modem connections, and data broadcasting technologies. With centralized control over where, when, and how communication occurs, you will have the ability to schedule and target specific players or groups of players to receive the information.

Playback - SPIN has a versatile and adaptable playback engine that allows information to be broadcast to large and small audiences on TVs, cable networks, computers, kiosks, video walls and projection systems. SPIN is the communications tool of the next century.
