We are doing very much the same to a satellite feed by loading AUX 1
with the substitute program, switching the main audio to an input which
feeds through the 2nd output to the satellite, and then dropping the
feed through from MAIN and playing the spots loaded on AUX 1 instead of
the local stuff that is on MAIN. The operator only has to load "Start
AUX1" in the MAIN program log and be sure the spot/program in AUX 1 is
the same length as the spot/program in MAIN that is not to sent on the
satellite or stream.
Rivendell to set up AUX1 for Sat Broadcast
Using 1 ASI6201 audio board, hard wire L/RO0-/+ output (pins 29 - 32) to
L/RI0-/+ input (pins 1 - 4) or use a DA to isolate if needed.
Create Macros:
Start AUX1
001 PN 2!
Switch to AUX1
001 SR 000 001 002! # remove main audio from output 2
002 LC red Sat on AUX1! # place "Sat on AUX1" in label area
Switch to Main
001 ST 000 001 002! # switch main audio to output 2
002 LC blue Sat on MAIN! # place "Sat on MAIN" in label area
003 PS2! # stop AUX1
Create a log to load into AUX1:
AUX1 Log
:00 PLAY <cart #> Switch to AUX1
:29 PLAY <cart #> GID or some audio
:00 PLAY <cart #> Switch to Main
:02 PLAY <cart #> Silence 2 sec
:00 PLAY <cart #> Switch to AUX1
:29 PLAY <cart #> GID or some audio
:00 PLAY <cart #> Switch to Main
:02 PLAY <cart #> Silence 2 sec
...
59:50 :00 STOP <cart #> SYNC
59:51 :00 PLAY <cart #> Switch to Main
59:52 :00 PLAY <cart #> Silence 2 sec
PLAY CHAIN TO <next day>
On reboot in RDAirplay, select 'AUX 1', highlight 1st inplayed 'Switch
to Main', click 'START'.
"Start AUX1" will be placed in the Main play log before the local
spot/annoucement to start the break away process which will last as long
as the audio cart in AUX1 and then switch back to Main audio.
Hope this helps,
Jimmy
