Low Cost/Free Automation Software

I just checked it out, and my playout computer's too out of date to run it as is.

I'll have to trial it on my other computer, which is new enough, before I decide if it's worth upgrading or not.

Exactly.


Ooo, and it's free! I'm gonna check it out!



The free version ought to be plenty for me. I'm not trying to sound big market.

I think you’ll be happy with playoutone standard for free. there’s a fairly decent user support base on facebook.

We have considered spinning up a standard version to escape an issue with another automation system we have

I hope so.

I'm spinning up a Windows 10 virtual machine for testing as I type.

If I end up liking it, I may have to buy a newer computer to run it on (my current computer is 6th-gen Intel based; PlayoutONE says it requires 8th-gen, so we'll see).

Okay...

I got my Windows 10 VM up and running, and I got PlayoutONE installed and running in it.

Now comes the fun/interesting part: learning how to use it!

I'm liking it so far, but it's quite different than PlayIt, so it's going to be awhile before I feel confident enough to fully transition, I think.

If anyone has any pointers or advice on usage and/or configuration that they'd be willing to share, please don't hesitate to send me a DM!
