This might be a possible use of the Aux 1 or Aux 2 logs in rdairplay. I have a situation in my station where I have a macro called Play Top 30. The macro has 4 lines. 1. LL 2 Top30 0! <-- Load Log on Aux 1 log called Top 30 2. PS 1! <-- Player Stop rdairplay on main log only 3. PN 2! <-- Play Now Aux 1 Log 4. LB Top 30 Playing on Aux Log1! <-- Display a panel label on main rdairplay to inform on air staff what is happening.
This macro gets placed in my main log every week at a particular time followed by a 3 second blank track, that plays silently while the main log stops. At the end of the top 30 log playing is another Macro called resume playlist. It has 2 lines. 1. PN 1! <-- Start Main log resuming playing next from where it was stopped. 2. LB Station Name! <-- Display My station name in panel. Both Main and Aux1 log playout to the same sound card so the transition is seamless. I hope that helps you.
