Manual playlist scheduling

Post by Radiofreak »

Hi, I have made a manual playlist with viocetracks now i want to schedule this 1 hour playlist but where can i do this. The only thing what i see is de script scheduling. Thanks for your help. I didn't find it anywhere so sorry for that.

And i have another question about voicetracking. When i make a voicetrack while playing the playlist i speak about 5 to 10 sec into the outro of the track and then talk over the next track. But when the songs ends in the playlist my voice is not hearing over the the track but my voice starts when the track is totaly finished. Ad the beginning of the next track it is going well. What can that be?

Yes, you need to write a small script with 2 script-lines for example:
1. line: Mode=LoadPlaylist, Entry=path-to-the-plalyist, Count=1, ...
2. line: Mode=Random, Entry=a-media-lib, Count=1

In the script options you specify LoopLine=2 (to prevent the 1. line to execute multiple times).
Now you can use this script to schedule your playlist within a program entry.

I have tried to explain it above for Playlist.
It is the same for pre-recorded mp3 files, instead, that you use the "LoadTrack" script-line mode.

See here for more details:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10
and here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=11

Control-Commans are explained here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12

Note, that you can find most of the info here in the forum instead of the user manaual.
Also take a look to the tutorial videos:

Thank you Bernd i will figure it out..I do my best reading and looking at the videos but i am not so technical with software. The reason is that i ask things is because we are running a radio station that is be listining quit well so before i start with this sotfware it must be good running for us before we mess up everything:). But anyway i love this software a lot...Danke schon.

The script doesn't define the total length!
The Program-Scheduler entry does define the total length and than 'simply' executes the associated script.

Initially you wanted to schedule a pre-prepared playlist. Thus you used a script with a first script-line using the LoadPlaylist mode.

Now you wanted to schedule a pre-recorded show, ie. a mp3 file. For this case you use a similar script , but need to use the LoadTrack mode instead.

Please send me the script you are using and I can tell you what might be wrong.
