Title: Difference between Otsav DJ and Radio?
Post by: 3rock on January 04, 2011, 01:40:55 PM
Hi All,

Looking for the best option for an internet radio only station with advanced scheduling / Playlisting, is there any differences between the DJ and Radio Versions?

Thanks

There are other differences, but the real crunch comes down to whether you want to-the-second sceduling, or are happy if your day parts "float" around an approximate hour. In the comparison chart http://www.otsav.com/buy-otsav-radio-compare/ you will see that the web-casting version has basic scheduling, but not the precise levels possible with its bigger brothers. This is because it is considered that there are so many delays in the signal propagated through the internet that top-of-clock scheduling is not really possible. If you want to run your station like a terrestrial station, you need the Radio Broadcaster. If not, the Webcaster version should be fine.
