Couple of questions about RML commands.

I have some scripts which have been working without issue on V2 for years.

There is now some confusion in my mind.

There are 2 ports that work 5858 and 5859. From memory one of them gave a response and the other did not.

The 'default' appears to have changed from V2 to V3 ; at least in the documentation.

Which one will just do it and not bother with acknowledgment?


In my bash script

The LC message used to use a variable in the form "LC [color] Text ${variable}!"

In V3.0 using ${var} in an LC RML crashes RDAirplay and no ferreting through logs produces a reason.

The rest works so it will run without the alerts.

LC RML without variables works OK

I thought it might be a bash change from CentOS 7 to 8, but have eliminated this.

The script runs every few minutes as a cron job and if a cycloneinfo.mp3 file is placed in our local dropbox it is renamed with a date-time filename

generated in the script, carted and played every 35 minutes a total of 3 times.  As these items are constantly updated it is possible to have 2 or 3 bulletins in play at any one time.

Incremental information is added as it happens.

Production is such that if 2 or 3 happen to play in a row it sounds like one complete bulletin.

Copied the scripts over from V2 to the new V3 system today in advance of a cat 2 that looks like a cat 4 in the making.

Found the problem by a process of elimination.

I have a vague memory that there has been some change in the RML code between versions.
