Programm schedule name

Post by Radio Gwen »

Hello,
I would like to understand if it's possible, when there's a pre-recorded show scheduled as overlay, to take the name of the "programm schedule" that's currently running, off the player that we have online.
Through the "set song title format" function on the web server I changed the information to show the audience: only artist and title of the song. But that doesn't solve my problem because, I want the name of the programm to be shown when there's music playing and to be hidden when there's an overlay schedule (our pre-recorded shows).

Is there anything I can do, maybe in the process of scheduling the overlay?


Thank you in advance

Why should you schedule a pre-recorderd program with a overlay why not on the regulare schedular?

By the way in te Overlay editor you can set the Title Updates

We schedule a pre-recorded program by the regular schedular. Then in the Script editor you can fill in the name off the show by click on the T. You have to fill this in only once.

The macro ${progcurrentname} returns the name of the current program. See the Appendix of the User Manual, it contains all macro and their description.
The above solution is anyhow very good!
