Softron 3.IB44 Overview

The OnTheAir CG Plus Logo Option Bundle software from Softron is a character generator (CG) application for Mac coupled with the logo option for OnTheAir Video. OnTheAir CG is capable of simultaneously working with multiple animated graphics, including tickers, clocks and image sequences, as well as pictures and shapes.

The software can be integrated into OnTheAir Video, where, if you have the PCI version, you can use your bundled Logo Overlay option to overlay the station logo on top of your video without requiring any extra hardware. You can position the station logo anywhere in the video, and it also works in HD, together with the HD option. The logo may be different for every clip in the playlist and has to be a PNG, TGA or PSD file.

Alternatively, OnTheAir CG can be utilized in standalone mode. Control of the application can be achieved interactively, for example, by clicking on a button to begin an animation. You can also control it via playlists in the OnTheAir Video program. The software is compatible with the Mac OS X Server and MacPro.
