Roll titles editor for AG «Courier»

Application design and implementation, C++ programming, storage format reverse engineering.

The system allows a human operator to enter lots of entries, enable and disable them based on given schedule, and generate dumps for given set of dates in video broadcasting hardware supported format. It is used to organize and simplify maintenance of roll titles by keeping an archive, automatically expiring entries, and allowing quick search and replace within an archive. Usability was of high concern during design phase - operator has to enter up to as many as 500 entries in one run.
