I wonder if Geoff is reading this and what he does for Otago Access Radio
for the 4 weekly reports per year for non-profit with Rivendell?
At present APRA/PPNZ don't request playlist information per their
requirements for LPFM, but the clearly require the station to be in a
possition to provide those reports on request - if they ask for samples in
the future.
The thing I disagree with, is that you're limited to $10,000 turn over
before you have to do full reports under a normal broadcast license.
However, the software such as Selector or Bluegum that they recommend to
output their reports makes an LPFM budget of $10,000 not really practical. I
can easily blow that on new hardware to upgrade to RD 2.8 branch, new
transmitter, console, mast and antenna and a grand just to get the copyright
license for LPFM and online. That would maybe leave enough to pay a tech to
give everything a clean bill of health.
The closest thing to an LPFM budget is Rivendell for it's features
obviously. I've experimented with technical playout report but that doesn't
appear to be enough. I need composer/author, record label, publisher and the
CD spine number (catalogue) number in those outputs. So far I've made the
output path \home\rduser\%y%m%d.txt but I've played audio over and over in
RDAirPlay and nothing is showing up in that subdirectory. Granted I'm only
on 1.7.2.
There must be someone in New Zealand or Australia running LPFM using RD and
paying their public performance licenses legitimatelly and fulfilling the
contract details on keeping reports should they request them? $10,000
anually is a tough ask before requiring expensive scheduling software for
reporting.

Hi Gavin,
In short no, from what I have found there are no default report templates
that do this.
I too would be keen to see a APRA/PPNZ report added for Oceania stations
using Rivendell.
Paul.

Does Rivendell support output reports for APRA/PPNZ for use in
Australia/New
Zealand in the newer version?
