Yeah sorry, obviously english is not my mother language, and I'm not
using the correct words.
So here is the thing :
I have cart n°130001 which is set as the "Default now" and "Default
next" for my RDAirplay in the "Now & Next parameters". Its artist and
title are set to "__STOP__". That's a string that I assume pretty
unique, and unlikely to be found in a real music cart.
I have music carts in a group (MUSIC) where "transmit now & next data"
is ON.
I have jingle carts in a group (JINGLES) where it is set to OFF.
Now here is my log, and what is being sent with rlm_udp :
MUSIC -> music title
MUSIC -> music title
JINGLE -> default cart metadata
MUSIC -> music title
MUSIC -> music title
That is expected, everything works fine ! Note though, that default cart
metadata is sent *even if the log machine is still in play state*
(during jingle playout), so that's a bit different from what you are saying.
Now, another log :
MUSIC -> music title
MUSIC -> music title
JINGLE -> default cart metadata
JINGLE // nothing is sent
MUSIC -> music title
MUSIC -> music title
So far, it seems that this is what you expect. Now, would there be a way
to make RDAirplay send default cart metadata during my second jingle ?
Maybe I'm not using it correctly, so I expect things from it that can't
be done, or it wasn't made to be used like that. If it's the case, how
could I achieve what I seek anyway ?
Thanks !
Hoggins!
