TUNETRACKER SYSTEM IN ACTION - TuneTracker Command Center
The Simplicity of TuneTracker Command Center's "Break Markers"
On the golf course, it's called "the cup." Without it, you could stroke all day and never finish a round. There has to be a place for that little round ball to fall into. The same principle applies to commercial traffic integration, except that instead of a green, grassy golf course, you have a master log template.
Wherever you want commercials to "fall" in your program logs, you need to place a one of our little break marker "cups" in your master log, so TuneStacker knows where to drop your announcements into the program log. Each break marker looks like this (note this system follows a 24-hour time format)...
Break Marker Examples:
What we're saying in each of the examples above is, "Hey TuneStacker, if you find any ads on the traffic log that are supposed to run at the time indicated, add them to the program log at this location." Often traffic programs will assign whole groups of ads to a break that starts at a specific time, so in the first example above, if your traffic log shows three ads marked for 03:32:30, all three will be added at that break marker.
break 03:32:30
break 10:19:00
break 14:51:50
To prepare your master log for traffic importation, just go through the log and add break markers that correspond with the breaks provided-for in your traffic log, using the super-simple format above. If you accurately place all the cups on the green, making sure their locations match those in your Traffic software, TuneStacker will hit hole-in-ones, all day long.
