>From Rob Landry:
>>>
I have a client running [name of Windows-based automation system deleted] ...
their AM is a news-talk station with a
bewildering array of programs and features from various networks, most of them
satellite-delivered and many of the features pre-recorded. Re-inventing that in
the context of a different system would cost a lot of man-hours, and the
expense just isn't justifiable.

Now there's a thought-provoking scenario: How about a companion Newsroom module
for Rivendell?
Maybe start with a screen where 2/3 of the real estate is dedicated to a
scrolling Live Script area; and the remaining 1/3 is a parallel column
containing "Start" icons for playing back actualities and wraps. Everything
rolls off and/or changes color as the newscast progresses and events are fired.
A row of Panel icons at the bottom of the screen lets the newsperson fire off
NEXT events on the main studio's Rivendell setup ("Sports and weather after
this...[hit commercial]"). Cook up a streamlined version of the Library
Recorder so news audio can be cut up and loaded fast...
Ooo-wee ... I think I'm on to something! I only wish I knew how to write code!
