ProppFrexx Advertising command line parameter

Post by 789 FM »

Hello

Would it be possible to add a command-line parameter to the "ProppFrexx Advertising" application to configure the configuration path of the application? Right now it is always "C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\radio42\ProppFrexx Advertising\4.0", but I want to sync it to a network drive to use across computers.

Something like "-config 'D:/Configuration/Advertising'" as command-line parameter.

Thank you!

You can configure the "Advertising Storage" path in the general settings, see section Scripts/Scheduler. Here you can choose any path you want - also on a networked drive.
So there is no need for an extra command-line parameter.

Hi sir,

I am talking about the "ProppFrexx Advertising & News" application:

You can open any Overlay Scheduler path within that application. This is not the issue.

I want to configure the path to the configuration files for the application. This is the folder that contains the "ProppFrexx Advertising.config" and "ProppFrexx Advertising.layout" as well as all SNX files for invoices. I want to sync all contents of this folder to a network drive so I want to pass a parameter to the application to be able to configure from where the files are loaded.

This is already possible with "ProppFrexx ONAIR" thanks to the config flag:

I want the same config parameter for the "ProppFrexx Advertising & News" application.
