Hi everybody, I was pretty hot and heavy into installation and configuration a year ago, right after we got our LPFM CP. But I put that aside and I've been doing organizational stuff and fundraising for most of the last year.
Now our CP is winding down and I'm hoping we will have the $$$ and meanwhile trying to get ready for the day when I can take shipment of the equipment. So I'm back looking at Rivendell configuration. Our "format" is audio books. Hourly "shows" consisting of a few small introductory, top-of-the-hour bits, then one or more large bits (30-40 minutes long) and then usually an assortment from the library of shorter pieces to fill the hour. We want to have an 8-hour block of this. Then we want to repeat that log twice, to make our 24 hour day. I don't want to just record the 8 hour block and replay it (although it may come to that), because I can see that we might have a bit of give and take at the end of our 8 hours which would then be multiplied X3 by the time we got to the end of the day. So, I am considering how to play the log three times. That would let rdairplay fill or trim as necessary. My current idea is to have some SQL statements which will take the log table and copy everything in it two more times... staying in the same table. I would generate the log, run this SQL script and BAM, we are x3. -or- make two more tables logA, logB, and add two chaining events at the end of the main, generated log to fire them off. Before I dive in I would like to know if there are implications from either way, or even a better way that I have not considered. My Rivendell mindset has faded a bit, I may be completely off track. Hope you all are doing fine and I thank you for your support.
