Thanks for the response. We aren't actually looking to own, although we would 
consider reselling, an alternative to SAM. We already mfg ad injection and ad 
management. SAM, which is popular in the US, is the playout system now owned by 
Triton/Ando. They are locking it up which means many of our potential customers 
won't be able to use our products. Therefore, we need some sort of replacement 
system. 

Michael, please explain further what SAM does. 

Thx.

Hi,

Thanks for your interest. I'd say that this list is the best place to discuss, 
you'd benefit from community input. If you really need to talk in private, then 
talk to Romain Beauxis, Samuel Mimram and myself.

A few remarks to start with: Liquidsoap won't give you any GUI that can act as 
a replacement for SAM, but it should be able to do the streaming part, ad 
insertion and whatnot -- I'm not familiar with SAM so it'd be useful that you 
specify the requested features. I guess you can develop your own GUI, there's 
everything you need to hook it to liquidsoap, although our external interfaces 
are a bit crude sometimes.

As for white papers, there are two (one in French, one in English) on our 
website, but it focuses on the model and language parts, that won't be useful 
here.

Cheers,
--
David
