We just discovered that we are having some scheduling and Top of the Hour issues as well.
We aren't using any external programs just Rivendell. We are very possibly doing something wrong because we don't understand exactly how things work. We generated 24 clocks several months ago and one problem I discovered yesterday is that when it generates a log many times an hour comes up several minutes short, like yesterday there was an hour that only had 53 minutes of music scheduled. I examined it more closely and one problem I see now is that the guy that created clocks has (I think) too many long slots (like six minutes) for our "Gold" category. I looked through the Gold songs and there are only 7 songs that are longer than 6 minutes and one 8 minute song. So in yesterdays log it filled some of the six minute slots with 3 and 4 minute songs, making those hours short. I'm having him go through the clocks and adjust so there is only 1 six minute slot per day and only a few 5 minute slots. But we don't know if that 8 minute song will ever get scheduled now? I thought we could just overschedule every clock by one song and then it will get dropped if the hour runs long (that seems to work fine in our tests). But he says he won't let him create clocks that are longer than 59:99. Are we completely off base here?
