Agreed! This would be a very useful feature indeed! I still wish the logs were split into hours instead of days too. This way rdairplay wouldn't have to reload the whole day's log but only the loaded one (if the loaded one was the one being modified). Else, it wouldn't have to do anything but load the next hour (modified or not). :)
Not really a must, but it'd be useful in my opinion. :) - Marius On man, januar 16, 2012 22:25, [email protected] wrote: > Hi, > > I could be incorrect, but I think part of the request is to be able to > access the voicetracking module/capability > directly from RDAirplay's log editor. > > One commercial system that I work with (I won't mention which one) has > this ability - to voicetrack directly from the > log editor which is displayed in the on-air room while the on-air playout > engine keeps going.
