Hi, What is probably happening - Rivendell is getting the play next command before the log is loaded, so it plays nothing.
I looked at this a few years ago - auto-crash-recovery - and here's what I came up with. What I've done is standardized logs with a year-month-day format for the log name, then upon boot it pops up a countdown window using Zenity. It counts down for 20 seconds during which you can hit "Cancel" if you are there, or if it is an unattended reboot once it gets to 0 it then loads up rdairplay and uses the --log1= command line to load up that particular day's log into Log1. It then pauses for a few seconds (I think 5 seconds? I can't recall, but I can check later this evening) to allow the log to load, then sends a play next RML.
