I work for a large network with about 45 stations. All our programming is originated in one location and delivered to the stations via satellite feeds. A dish at each site receives the audio to the transmitters and towers which are co-located. All the programming is the same for each station. For local ID's and PSA's we use a Burk LX-1 switcher. For ID at the top of the hour, our ENCO DAD fires a command to the switcher which activates a CD player and plays the ID. Then a command is given to switch back to sat. Same thing throughout the day for local PSA's. We are non-commercial, so no commercials. We want to move away from the CD players. I am trying to get them to move to Rivendell on a Raspberry Pi to due this. What is the best way to set up GPIO for Rivendell to due this? It needs to have a playlist of say 20-30 ID's that rotate in a loop. Once one is played then it needs to stop until the next switcher command to play the next cut. The log needs to be reloaded at midnight for the next day as well. I know this should be fairly easy with macros, but need some input. I will not be the final person implementing it, but I'm the only one familiar with Rivendell, so am trying to "sell" it for this project. Thanks. By the way, I do have Rivendell already running on a test Raspberry PI.
