Meta Data Mixed
Hello,
I have a question.
I have not been able to find out why, but sometimes the metadata of songs is mixed between one element and another.
This happens when there is change from one hour to another.
I am using PFOA auto scheduling, so when the current song ends and a change in the program scheduling comes, the meta data is mixed between the next songs of the current program with the first of the next program.
Example:
Script from 12:00 to 13:00 (
Current song is Coldplay - The Scientist
Script from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.
the first song is The Smiths - There is a light That never goes Out.
The meta Data show: Coldplay - There is a light That never goes Out.
Has anyone detected something like this at your station?
Thank you so much!

Re: Meta Data Mixed
ProppFrexx can and will not mix any meta data of two tracks.
Except you are mixing two different macro sources which haven’t been updated yet. Eg. You are using an event so that some macros are already updated while pitchers are not.
Sounds still all very unlikely, but depending exactly on how you test things there is a possible chance.
But in order to judge this I would need to know exactly how you test things?!
Also validate your test results with the official playlist or global log resp. the global entry statistics. In there elements there had never been any mix of meta data!

Re: Meta Data Mixed
Thanks Bernd,
I will review the ones you mention. When I detect another, I'll come back with more data to show you.
In the case of commands, I am just using:
OnTrackPlay:
EXEC_SEND_HTTP_POST
https://nowplaying.mdstrm.com/api/artis ... istcurrent limitada&songtitle=$lecurier{=martuentaltrac500&songtitle=$bucurrentuemartue=mart500

Re: Meta Data Mixed
But in the command given I can not recognize any valid ProppFrexx macros.
So the meta data must come from somewhere else?!
