Putting Cablecast on Autopilot: Automating Ingest, Scheduling, and Cleanup
In this practical support and training webinar, we’ll walk through how to dramatically reduce day-to-day scheduling workload in Cablecast by building a fully automated workflow—from content submission to playback. Learn how to use Producer Uploads to securely collect programming directly from churches, government agencies, and recurring producers, while capturing clean metadata and enforcing content policies. We’ll cover when to use auto-approval, how to configure branding and agreements, and how to ensure files are ready for air with minimal staff intervention. From there, we’ll demonstrate how to combine Saved Searches and Auto Schedule rules to automatically play the latest episode in a recurring timeslot—perfect for weekly services, meetings, and series programming. Finally, we’ll show how to use Smart Asset Management (SAM) workflows to clean up old files you no longer need, and how to configure automatic Autopilot sends so your schedule commits reliably every night. By the end of this session, you’ll have a blueprint for putting routine channel operations on autopilot—freeing your staff to focus more time on community engagement, training, and content creation.
