Hi Hoggins,

We had a similar situation here - two machines both broadcasting Now
and Next to the same SHOUTcast server. Unfortunately the On Air and
Off Air flags do not determine if Now and Next data is transmitted.

However, I made two Macro carts that set the flag to 1 or 0, and also
echo '1' or '0' to a text file. Then made a slight modification to the
bash script that sends information up to the SHOUTcast server, i.e. if
sendinfo.txt contains '1' then continue and send information, if it
contains '0', do nothing.

I am away from the studio at the moment but I would be happy to send
you my scripts or post them here, just let me know.

Subject:[RDD] Allow sending now and next data based on rules

 Hello everyone,

 We use several Rivendell machines, in different studios, alternately
 transmitting on the same program.
 Both send their now and next data to the sameserver. This data is
then
 processed to feed the streaming server and the RDS encoder.

 We would like to have a way to set our machines in an "On Air" or
"Not
 On Air" mode, so that only one machine at a time is allowed to
transmit
 theirUDP datagrams.

 Actually, there is a "On Air" flagthat can be defined via RML. Would
 that be our lead ?

 Thanks in advance,

 Hoggins!
