• Offline Media •
Media content stored in long-term archival storage, which therefore requires a restore operation before becoming immediately available for editing, playout, or other processes. In Etere, the related asset remains accessible: users can view its main data, edit the EDL, and preview its proxy, provided that the proxy itself is stored in direct-access storage
• Object Reel •
Tape containing a pre-assembled set of media contents, extracted from a specific section of a playlist. It is intended to provide an analogue backup for on-air transmission in case of digital system failures. In Etere, object reels can be created from any type of material and played independently from the main schedule to ensure broadcast continuity when the primary playout system is unavailable
• Online Media •
Media content stored in direct-access storage; it is therefore immediately available for editing, playout, or other processes. The quality of online media may vary depending on the workflow and intended use
• Order •
Virtual document that represents a commercial agreement for the sale of advertising space. It includes one or more order lines that define scheduling, pricing, invoicing, and payment specifications. With Etere, users can create and manage order lines containing customer data, invoicing details, associated material, and scheduling requirements for the placement on commercial playlists. An order is also referred to as a commercial order or contract
