Thanks guys for those references. They were very helpful.

I see where my error was. I was expecting one event to import all the music needed to fill the time slot. Now I see I need one event per song. It has been 5 or 6 years since I had fooled with this and my elder memory has flaws. I seem to remember just putting in one event and it pulled the necessary music to fill the desired time. Now I think that was something else that did that. A whole bunch of three minute events does the trick.

Thanks,
Michael

I'd like to fill the rest of the hour with music. Is there a way to
create an event that just pulls songs sort of randomly to fill X
number of minutes? Or do I have to create a dozen or so events to each
pull one song?

You can certainly create an event that randomly picks carts from a
group.
About scheduling and generating logs, this page
https://thebrettblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/31/rivendell-how-to-schedule-music/
    covers the entire process in a thorough and illustrated manner.
That's what kickstarted me when converting my station to rivendell 10
years ago.
