| Ots Studio |
Ots Studio is capable of converting various Media file types to Ots files, which can then be played in Ots-based playout software, such as OtsAV.
Most audio types can be converted to Ots files, providing you have the relevant DirectShow Filter installed on your system. In simple terms, if the audio file can play in Windows Media Player , Ots Studio should be able to convert it to an Ots file.
