Video Scheduling Software for Mac OS X

Plyxim has announced Exibia 2.0, a brand new version of their video broadcast scheduling application for Mac OS X. Exibia allows clients in a multi-user, multi-platform environment to upload and schedule still images and QuickTime-compatible videos to a centrally located server.

The Exibia Server, a Macintosh connected to a cable television (CATV) system for broadcast, a stand-alone flat panel display or television, or a digital billboard, handles the hosting, scheduling and playback of video content. Users of any platform can easily upload and schedule videos for playback using their web browser, including iPad, iPhone or iPod touch.

Version 2.0 introduces the following new features:
* Complete web-based administration of all Exibia settings
* A completely redesigned web interface
* A "Default Playlist" of still images or videos that will loop continuously when there is no scheduled content
* Creation and scheduling of playlists of videos
* Repetitive scheduling of videos (i.e., daily, weekly, monthly)
* The ability to add descriptions to uploaded videos and playlists
* Automatic creation of thumbnail images for uploaded videos
* The ability to stop a scheduled video or playlist
* The ability to bulk upload video content


Pricing and Availability:
$699 (USD) per Exibia 2.0 license. One license allows Exibia to run on a single Macintosh computer with unlimited Exibia Web Administration and Web Client use. Exibia v2.0 will be available for download on July 1st, 2010. Users who purchase Exibia 1.x between now and June 30th, 2010 at the current price will receive a free upgrade to Exibia 2.0. A time-limited, fully-functional demo will be available for download from their website upon release.
