This post provides insights on the new features available in Cinegy Convert v11. With powerful pre- and post-scripting events it is possible to extend your workflow way further the out-of-the-box functionality, for example, automatically publish videos on Facebook on user’s behalf. Source codes are also available for the reference.

This post provides details on the new Cinegy Playout WEB API available starting from the v11 release. The post explains basic features available and demonstrates the possible results visualization with simple HTML/CSS/Java script. Source codes are also available for the reference.

Starting from the release of Cinegy Air 11, there are some enhanced REST API calls accessible via the playout engine, which allow us to make some interesting interfaces to extend Cinegy Air. While this does not allow complete control of the playlist (for this you will need to wait for Cinegy Air 12, or access the engine via the traditional COM API), it does allow some common activities to be controlled ‒ which can be used to make some useful remote panels.

The idea behind the original presentation at TechCon 2016 was to show how you can extend your workflow using the open architecture of Cinegy products and open Cinegy APIs.

So, in this post we will revisit some of these demonstrations and show that such kind of "scripting" is not as difficult as most of you may think, and can open new horizons for your everyday tasks.
