A transmission server system includes: a material output portion that temporarily stores materials making up a program and transferred from a material server and outputs the materials by successively reading out the materials, wherein the material output portion has a plurality of recording and reproducing portions, the materials making up the program are transferred from the material server commonly to the plurality of recording and reproducing portions and recorded in each, and the respective materials are reproduced by and outputted from a recoding and reproducing portion as a transmission subject among the plurality of recording and reproducing portions.

Transmission server system and material transfer method

Program production supporting component, transmission equipment controlling component, material creation managing component, and storing component are interconnected through a network, and managing component and exterior supporting component are connected to the network, thereby making it possible to realize a program production and transmission apparatus capable of efficiently execution creation of program component information with production information produced based on production schedule information, creation of a program progress table formed based on the program component information, and processing for editing and transmission based on the program progress table at timing as required.
