Precise, centralized control for affiliate feed alignment.

When you’re managing downstream systems, local ad insertions, affiliate branding, and ancillary metadata, accuracy matters. LTN Station Manager ensures you can monitor and control a broad distribution footprint and affiliate hardware, dynamically route specific video feeds, turn graphics on and off, and keep every video flow in sync and in line with compliance standards.

Whether you're inserting SCTE-35 ad markers, applying station bugs, or validating V-chip and ratings data, Station Manager ensures downstream systems and equipment receive accurate, complete commands and ready-to-deliver audio and video. The result is a reliable, uniform viewing experience for every audience.

Adapt to the unexpected.

Agile solutions for live programming shifts.

Live programming doesn’t always follow the schedule. From breaking news to event overruns, networks need to react fast—and affiliates need to stay in step. LTN Station Manager makes it easy to respond to unscheduled changes, send multiple versions of network feeds, and execute complex switching scenarios.

LTN Station Manager can be driven by a programming schedule or playout automation system, all centrally managed through a web-based GUI. Last-minute commands can be triggered using a GUI, GPIO triggers, or a touch panel interface. No matter how plans change, Station Manager gives you the confidence to react quickly and keep affiliates on the same page.

Customize affiliate management.

Tailored views. Clear visibility. Accountable systems.

Staying organized is essential when you're managing multiple affiliates and high volumes of programming. LTN Station Manager makes it easy to group systems and target commands to individuals or groups. Every command is validated, logged, and clearly displayed, so you can quickly see which systems responded—and which didn’t.

LTN Station Manager gives you a reliable and extensible foundation built on over 30 years of broadcast experience. We have thousands of device drivers in our library, so you won’t have to change your workflows. Whether you're sending commands or tracking compliance, Station Manager keeps every detail clear and every system accountable.
