-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Having a more flexible interface for rdairplay/rdpanel (and maybe other tools) with pluggable modules, maybe some generic ones (display image refreshed periodically, display result of command rerun periodically, script tray for show/log+current song notes, extra meters etc), all of which could be dynamically swapped out depending on station or presenter requirements? Just have a button next to that area which lets you pick from the available modules.
Of course, making the entire UI flexible in this way would be very neat. It would probably require significant refactoring to pull out specific stuff from rdairplay to a public API, but the results could be great - primarily vocal shows could have their main log next to a big script window, music shows can have their main detailed log next to a button panel and an aux log for playing hooks etc... lot of work, but the payoff could be huge. That, and I suspect I'm not the only one who reckons that a bit of an overhaul of the Rivendell GUI wouldn't hurt. (Well, maybe it'd hurt Fred, but... :-)) It does all look a bit tired and a pretty face may not have significant technical benefits, but it does help a lot when trying to convince management etc. Little bit OT: How about getting Rivendell 3.x in Git/throwing it up on Github? CVS is now old enough that I have issues installing it on most distros I use... :-) Cheers, James Harrison On 10/05/2012 15:22, John Anderson wrote: > I don't like complicating Rivendell with a bunch of other clutter...as we can see, just about everyone has a different thought on what works for them... > > (I like the ability to put liner cards and stuff up, some people want promo copy, etc)... > > > what could really be interesting is a window, that you could run other programs of choice...I saw this with some bbs software years ago, you could basically "drop to dos", and then run anything you wanted, the program would then display the program to the caller on the other end of the modem)... we don't need to go that far, but if there was a window, that could be assigned at will, everyone might be happy??? > > ------------------------- > *From:* T.J.

In our current system setup we play out tracks through rdairplay into our mixer then record back into the computer and send the audio to the encoder (darkice) using jack. It would be nice if you could select an additional channel or channels to monitor as a visual cue to the host that their audio is making it back into the system, and at a proper level. > > T.J. > Florida Tech College Radio > > _______________________________________________ > Rivendell-dev mailing list > [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Rivendell-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+r/9oACgkQ22kkGnnJQAz0XwCdF2KDxMpImucka+3opwE5aGkR TxsAnRKvK0mCqEoXlJcL/q6bCqtopDsc =f1g3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
