Yes, Bangla Language is not in the list. But the confusion arises when people notice that some popular Bangladeshi Newspaper like Prothom Alo and Kaler Kantho show Adsense Ads on their websites.
If you are wondering how they do it, here is the answer. Maybe they are premium Adsense publishers. Or they used an Adsense account that has been approved by another site. I mean they didn’t apply for Adsense with Bangla content based site, they added the site to their existing Adsense account. You can do the same if you want to violate the Adsense Policy.
I will never suggest you to place Adsense Ads on Bangla content based sites. If someone reports about your account that you are using Adsense on an unsupported language, Adsense team may ban you from their program. Another problem is, if Adsense team finds that a lot of Bangladeshi publishers are placing Adsense codes on Bangla content based site, they will become more strict on approving new applicants.
I hope Adsense will add Bangla language to its program real soon. After all, Bangla is one of the most spoken languages, ranked 7th in the world. All we need to do is, increase Bangla content and attract more local advertisers. Until Adsense approves Bangla, don’t use Adsense on your Bangle site. But you can consider using Adsense when your site contains both Bangla & English and English is primary language.
 So What is the Solution for Bangla Content Based Publishers?
The solution is G&R Ad Network. G&R is the first & largest Bangladeshi online Advertising network. It offers several monetization options to the publishers. If you are running a Bangla content based site, I would suggest you to use this network. It offers a good amount of revenue on impressions.

CasparCG AIR client

This is a preview of a client for the CasparCG server (www.casparcg.com). Many things has to be solved yet and for the moment its done only for running CG elements. Yes, I know that it must be able to run videos also but the first version will be CG only because I need it for a project in a few weeks and videos aren't needed in that :) Version 0.2 will probably support that.

Anyhow, the client reads data from the template (using INFO TEMPLATE templatename) and shows those fields on screen (limited to 8 for the moment). After filling in the data, click Add to playlist. When everything is ready there will be a play button that you press when you want the selected line to go on air. Should also be possible to choose multiple and set then on air at once (the playlist should then change the background color to red when they are on air). As you see the channel/layer is now just added CG 1-1 and that will of course change... There will probably also be a edit/remove from playlist and a save/load function to/from xml file...
