ProppFrexx ONAIR User-Forum

Dear support, We have a scenario where a live studio (or DJ) ProppFrexx instance contributes to the main ProppFrexx playout through a LineIn-feed. What is the best way to push the metadata updates from the live-instance to the different targets addressed normally from the the main playout system ? N...

OK perfect, thank you !

Dear Bernd, I have tested the new version but now all special characters are encoded in HTML in our json files. Is it due to the last update (BOM) or other change ? Is it possible to choose between UTF-8 encoding or HTML special chars encoding ? Thank you in advance. Best regards Example here (unico...

Thank you, yes I think it could be a good solution. Do you know when it could be available please ?

Dear Bernd,
We have seen that the json file resulting from EXEC_WRITE_PLAYLISTFILE begins with a BOM (Byte-order-mark) : EFBBBF. Is it possible to remove it to get a 100% valid json file ?

I rearranged them to have a quicker reaction fo...

OK, thank you, so we will use only 'Streaming.OnSongTitleChanged'. Can you confirm when the event occurs in comparison with 'Playlist.OnTrackPlay' please? Is it something we can adjust somewhere? Regarding the covers, we don't send them only on a website. They're sent to different radio platforms an...

Dear Bernd, We had the same problem while using the Playlist.OnTrackPlay event to distribute metadata information to several tools. Is it possible to have a specific Playlist event using the same filters as in the Streaming section? From what I have seen, the ontrackplay event is fired a few seconds...

Dear support, Is it possible to get access to url encoding or "cleaning" functions in actions like EXEC_SEND_HTTP_GET/POST ? Especially accented characters are not well supported depending on target systems. The same problems happens when we use the function EXEC_WRITE_PLAYLISTFILE to expo...

Sorry for my late reply. The idea in using FTE was to close the hour as properly as possible at 59:59 each hour. We have news on top hour with an undetermined duration (3-6 minutes), temporarily via MODStream and soon via Line-In and dry-contact for beginning/end. If the script is generate each hour...
