A curious case is when I schedule a macro cart in the log that stops
the log machine and switches to an external audio source, the idea is
to do a last now&next update so the resulting Icecast2 stream will
display something like 'foo - is now live from bar' ... I can see the
'SN now 1 10000X' on the machine, but the pypad never 'catches' the
update.
The PAD for the current ‘default Now & Next cart’ that the ‘SN’ macro
sets is emitted only when the referenced log machine stops-down
completely. It will not override the PAD sent by currently playing
cart(s).
Hi! thank you so much for your help!
It's not entirely clear to me the 'machine stop-down completely'
(probably still not enough radio/Rivendell jargon in my mind) maybe I'm
wrong, but, translating it to me as 'completelly ending the current
playback', that would somehow explain the behavior I experienced.
With that interpretation, the machine has to be running (well, what I
think of 'running'.. executing the log... i mean, no PS), so, the SN
cart that I execute NOW, will be sent to the server after/once the
current song on the machine ends (and, therefore, it is time to send a
new metadata to the streaming server).
Adding PS on the MACROs in my tests, seemed to do the trick... Now I
explain that as those PS gave time to completely end the current song,
and then update the streaming Server, and then, even issue a PS afterwards.
Best regards
Cheers!
