This module has been forked as part of the Community Media Advanced initiative.

The forked version is hosted on github.com/cm-advanced/reservations_resource_chart

We created this fork to provide a central place to host all community media modules that are in ongoing development, and to facilitate new releases.

We are doing this under the terms of GPL version 2, and using Drupal branch/ tag/ release conventions on Github so that new releases can be shown on the Available updates Drupal page the same way they are for modules hosted on drupal.org.

Please be aware that these modules might not be backwards compatible.

The following organizations have undertaken this Community Media Advanced initiative together (listed alphabetically as of July 2017):

Amherst Media, Brattleboro Community Television (BCTV), Easton Community Access Television (ECAT), High Five Access Media (HFAM), Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN), Open Signal PDX, ORCA Media, PhillyCAM, Regional Educational Television Network (RETN), St. Paul Neighborhood Network (SPNN), Vermont Community Access Media (VCAM)

Airing Grid Scheduler

This module was developed from Manhattan Neighborhood Network to manually generate airings of television programming for a traditional 30/60 minute grid.

REQUIRES THE 1.x BRANCH OF AIRINGS TO CONVERT TO AND FROM UTC. THE 2.x BRANCH OF THE AIRING GRID WILL BE MORE VIEW FRIENDLY

Most stations simply embed the schedule from a playback server using an iframe or link directly to it. Some stations populate Airings from playback server using a feed or the server's API. This gives them more control over the look and feel of the schedule. MNN takes this even further creating a schedule in Drupal then pushing the entire schedule to their Morpheus broadcast automation solution as XML. When finished the Airing Grid Scheduler can also be used to push to Cinegy or Telvue playback servers.

Much of the code was originally developed by Openflows from Drupal 4.7. That version was used to schedule more than 380,000 airings for MNN. CivicActions created the initial Drupal 7 version. Support for scheduling Playlists in addition to a single show was added with support from Öppna Kanalen Växjö.
