You might be on to something, the liners are all hard timed, but they are set to "make next" if the previous song is still playing at the time so as to not cut it off. I will go set the next one tostart immediately and see if that fixes it.
Getting NTP setup has been on my todo list. We have a GPS device that was used with our very old and custom coded automation system, but I can not seem to find any info on it. It is just a little black box that reads on the label: Motorola Model No: PVT602N323 googling that gave me very little and nothing useful that I found. It's only connections are an antenna BNC and a DB-9 that is the power in and seriel data link, I have the special cable for it around here somewhere..... Anyway, what I want to do is setup the server to use either this GPS or a remote NTP server, and have all of my workstations getting NTP from the server. I've read up on it a little but am still not real sure how to do it. Nathaniel C.
