Content
management
Prepare media before it enters the schedule.
Manage the media and files used in your channel operation — video, audio, live inputs, images, subtitles, and graphics.
Stream Circle keeps playout content organised with folders, metadata, and segmentation tools before it enters the schedule. Operators can prepare media, verify file details, and use metadata for scheduling, graphics, and reporting.
Key capabilities
• Physical and virtual folders — organise files manually or through query-based rules.
• Technical metadata — extract media properties from files.
• Descriptive metadata — add or import fields used for scheduling, EPG, and graphics.
• Video segmentation — adjust in/out points or split clips using low-resolution previews.
• Schedule preparation — verify that required media is available before playout.
Folder organization
Use local, remote, and virtual folders to organise content for daily playout operations.
Virtual folders populate automatically from metadata-based rules — for example, by format, duration, genre, status, or custom tags. This helps operators keep playout content structured without manually sorting every file.
File details & metadata
Each file can carry technical metadata extracted from the media and descriptive metadata entered manually or imported from other systems.
These fields can be used for playlist rules, EPG data, search, reporting, and data-driven graphics.
File segmentation
Adjust start and end offsets, or split a video files into segments directly in Stream Circle.
Operators can work with low-resolution previews and precise timecodes for simple segmentation tasks without opening an external editor.
