Sounds like you need a PyPAD script.

These can be used to send notifications whenever the state of a log changes in 
RDAirPlay.

Cheers!

[RDD] Reading RDAirPlay status after sending RML

[Nick Andre]

tldr: is there any way to tell what cart RDAirPlay is currently playing? It
seems like I can grep the syslog, but just wondering if there's some other
more expedient way.

We implemented remote broadcasting for our radio station using some basic
bash and MySQL procedures. Essentially after all is said and done, the script
will send RML to Rivendell

to load a particular cart to the queue along with a certain announcement
and then start the show. Looks like this:

rmlsend PX\ 1\ 3004\! #This is the WMFO shows pre-recorded announcement,
will push to top
sleep 1
rmlsend PN\ 1\! #press play next (second track in queue or first if not
running), which should fade out existing track
sleep 1
rmlsend PX\ 1\ 96\!
sleep 1
rmlsend PX\ 1\ $cart\! # queue up specified show

Sometimes a live DJ will ignore instructions and load a new log, canceling
playback. I would like to programmatically illuminate if this has happened.
