BROADCAST PROGRAM TRANSMISSION CONTROL APPARATUS, BROADCAST PROGRAM TRANSMISSION CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect in advance whether or not an error occurs when controlling broadcasting apparatuses according to a playlist and notify an operator of it.SOLUTION: In a step S1, editing of a playlist corresponding to an on-air broadcast program is monitored. In a step S2, it is judged whether or not editing, such as addition, deletion, replacement or update of a cue, is done to the playlist. When editing is done, in a step S3, the entire playlist is checked whether or not a syntax error is included. When a syntax error is detected, in a step S5, an error indication is displayed on the corresponding cue position. This invention can be applied to broadcast program transmission control apparatuses which are installed in places such as a broadcasting station.
