Cablecast 7.10 ships with a new Cablecast Support Tool that enables our team to deliver amazing support when you need it most. The cablecast installer will take care of everything for you. We encourage stations to update at their earliest convenience as we will need the new support tool installed before we can assist with most troubleshooting tasks.

Stations can now setup portals that allow producers to upload content seamlessly to Cablecast. Content is uploaded first to Cablecast Cloud Services where it can be held before an operator approves it. Cloud services will perform quality checks and a processing transformation to assure content is safe to download before it ever reaches your Cablecast server.

Internet Channels can now be configured with a saved search to pull pre-roll messages used for video on demand and live stream players. Pre-roll messages work for web players and allow stations to deliver short messages before a viewer watches their content.
