How to setup overschedule

Post by Ihor Mudrak »

Hello, could you please help us to set up overschedule? We cann't set it up as the button is unable :(

We need to arrange specific podcasts twice a day, and a moment of silence each day in 9:00.

I assume you mean the Overlay Scheduler?
The overlay scheduler is available in Professional Edition.
We here: https://www.proppfrexx.radio42.com/editions.html

So you maybe need to upgrade. I guess you might have the Premium?

I am not sure, what you are exactly looking for?! Can you please specify this in more details!

The Program Scheduler with the Script function is enough to schedule a radio show. This is available in the Premium Edition.

If you need a secondary scheduler for additional overlays - you would need the Professional Edition.

Please study the different functionalities in our tutorial videos here: viewtopic.php?t=1018

Or here: viewtopic.php?t=10

I need to put into regular scheduler radioshow (podcast) twice a day (we have 8 podcast episodes) so each day should be 2 different episodes. Perfectly there should be different episodes each day.

And the second task is to put into scheduler the national moment of silence for the victims of the war. It's happeninng once a day, each day at 9:00 AM.

is it possible with Program Scheduler with Premium Edition?

Yes. For this you won’t need an overlay scheduler. You might do this with different scripts. Depending on when you would like to schedule your episodes… ie. you can create different programs/scripts per hour.

Silence might be scheduled by a related track, which is silent for example.
Your episodes might be scheduled by a LastRecentlyPlayed script-like, which you only trigger six times over the day in a related script, ie. you have multiple different scripts in use over the day…

The script-line looks okay. But note, that the script is being looped (when using that script as a program it will load to a new playlist; and a playlist might have 3 DJ Players, so 3 tracks will initially be loaded - i.e. in your case 3 x the same script-line)!
I.e. if you only want to play one track out of your 'Podcast' media lib - you might want to add addition lines and set the 'Loop Line' script option parameter to 2.
Example: Loop-Line = 2
1. LastRecentlyPlayed Podcast, Count=1
2. Random, SomeOtherMediaLib, Count=1

And you of course need to use that script in your program scheduler entry - but in the given screenshot I cannot see that of course...
