Upcoming Cablecast Webinars

New to Cablecast or looking for a solid refresher? Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly webinar that walks through the essential building blocks of using Cablecast—from getting into the system to sending a schedule to air with confidence.

We’ll start with the basics of accessing and logging in to Cablecast, then take a guided tour of the user interface so you know where everything lives and how the workflow fits together. From there, we’ll cover how to upload video files, create Show Records, and understand the role metadata plays in organizing and finding content.

Finally, we’ll walk through building a schedule and explain how Autopilot is used to commit your schedule to air—so you can move from setup to playback smoothly.

Topics we’ll cover:

• How to access and log in to Cablecast
• A brief overview of the Cablecast interface
• Uploading video files and creating Show Records
• Understanding and using metadata within Show Records
• Building your schedule
• Using Autopilot to commit your schedule to air

Whether you’re just getting started or want to reinforce the fundamentals, this session will help you feel more comfortable navigating Cablecast and managing your channel’s content from start to finish.

n this practical support and training webinar, we’ll walk through how to dramatically reduce day-to-day scheduling workload in Cablecast by building a fully automated workflow—from content submission to playback. Learn how to use Producer Uploads to securely collect programming directly from churches, government agencies, and recurring producers, while capturing clean metadata and enforcing content policies. We’ll cover when to use auto-approval, how to configure branding and agreements, and how to ensure files are ready for air with minimal staff intervention.

From there, we’ll demonstrate how to combine Saved Searches and Auto Schedule rules to automatically play the latest episode in a recurring timeslot—perfect for weekly services, meetings, and series programming. Finally, we’ll show how to use Smart Asset Management (SAM) workflows to clean up old files you no longer need, and how to configure automatic Autopilot sends so your schedule commits reliably every night. By the end of this session, you’ll have a blueprint for putting routine channel operations on autopilot—freeing your staff to focus more time on community engagement, training, and content creation.
