[RDD] Rivendell 4rc1 RN macro

2022-12-29 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Regardless of how I set the permissions for RN macro in rd.conf,
scripts will not execute from within Rivendell.

Scripts run fine from terminal.

Scripts are owned by rivendell:rivendell.

rduser is a member of rivendell.

[RDD] Debian/Ubuntu database issues on Rivendell version 3+

2022-05-29 Thread Tim Camp
I posted about this when version 3 beta was introduced. I just tried a
installation with the latest stable and the problem still exists.

Database queries on rivendell version 3+ take forever on debian or Ubuntu
and it doesn't matter if it's running Maria or MySQL local server or
remote.

If I open rdlibrary and search all (about 1 carts) it takes 15 minutes
to load.

A group with 600 carts takes over a minute.

Definitely not useable in a production environment.

Just wondering if anyone has ever found a solution to this problem if you
have experienced it.

[RDD] rdrender voicetracks fade

2022-04-15 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

When rendering a log to file, when there is a voicetrack that overlaps
music, as soon as the music starts the voicetrack begins to fade.

This behavior does not exist when playing the same log in RdAirplay.

On files in the voicetrack category it isn't possible to check the "no fade
on segue" box.

Is this a bug with rdrender or am I missing something?

Excellent points Bill.
In our case we had ssh ability to get into the secure/studio side but
secured and using a unusual port, they didn't get through that, they got in
through samba and the samba server only exported one directory where the
logs were but as you said they apparently easily hacked in through that.

This is why they only effected machines were the ones with smb connections
to the windows server that was their entry point.

Re: [RDD] Ransonware attack

2021-12-14 Thread Tim Camp
Well according to the forensics that have been done there is a nmb hack
that works with with samba that allows one to use samba to place a ssh key
on the samba connected machine and thus gain ssh root access.
I found out the computer science dept at the local university even
demonstrates how this is done in one of their classes.
I have been advised to use read only nfs shares for connected windows boxes
for reconciliation and the safest way to get the traffic and music logs
seems to be to carry it down the hall on a usb. :)
The Secret Service cyber attack team that came here hates windows.
If not for the connected windows box I don't believe they ever would have
gotten into the studio side of the network.

[RDD] Ransonware attack

2021-12-10 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

This past Sunday morning our four station had a cyber attack.
They gained access through a windows server that we use for traffic and
bookkeeping.
Through this connection they exploited samba to place ssh keys on many of
our linux machines and erased all files on the control room pc's and erased
/var/snd on our nfs server.

They encrypted the windows server for ransome and just erased the linux
machines they got access to.

Trying to rebuild four radio stations from the ground up.
We had backup on several drives but they were on the network so they got
them as well.

One issue if someone can help me with.
I have recompiled rivendell on two control rooms and everything works
except no audio and no meters, Carts act like they are playing but no
output. I'm sure I have overlooked something, I've been up for days.

Warning to all that Samba is a weak spot.

[RDD] Version 4 Beta 2 testing

2021-08-04 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

I am having dayshavoo

In the process of testing out Ver 4 Beta 2 and want to test it in the same
environment as
my production systems (with a dedicated mysql server and audio store)

So I'm setting up a client only machine using ubuntu studio.

I am at
sudo rddbmgr -- modify
which returns
DB connection re-established
invalid SQL or failed DB connection[Unknown column 'UDP_ADDR' in 'field
list' QMYSQL: Unable to execute query]: insert into `LOG_MACHINES` set

So I have been here before and cannot convert my existing database (schema
272)
After this crash
sudo rddbmgr
returns 277 as the schema

I have tried numerous things that I have found searching on line and notes
I had from previous schema troubles and I'm stuck.

I have good backups so i can reload and get back to where we started.

Re: [RDD] Help RN just won't work

2020-10-23 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Thanks for those who emailed me with suggestions, however this is still a
no go.

I would like to point out that as of version 3 this is a different thing
than it was in version 2.

According to the rivendell operations guide
**
13.8.37. Run Shell Command [RN]
Module ripcd(8)
Mnemonic RN
Run a shell command.
RN cmd!
Run the shell command cmd.

Note

*The command is actually executed as:runuser -u user -g group cmd*
where user and group are the values specified by the "RnRmlOwner=" and
"RnRmlGroup="
directives in the "[Identity]" section of rd.conf(5). See the runuser(1)
man page for details
concerning handling of the process environment.
*

The bold entry I have noted would seem to be important because if you
specify
RnRmlOwner=anyuser (except root)  and   RnRmlGroup=anygroup
for example

then the command runuser will fail because according to "man runuser"
-g, --group=group
  specify  the primary group,

*this option is allowed for root user  only*

so according to the documentation the only user you could specify that
would work is root.
This works in a terminal

In Rivendell, Guess what? That doesn't work either.

According to man runuser default path is /usr/local/bin thats where my
scripts are
the default env is /bin/bash or /bin/sh or /usr/bin/bash I'm all good with
that

My scripts run from the command line perfectly

in a terminal "runuser -u root -g root cmd" runs perfection
so the verdict is it should work except it doesn't

Greetings,
Thanks so much for your reply Kit.
/dev/udp is not an actual device that you will see in /dev.
It is a bash call to open a udp port to read or write to/from.

You can also do this in bash with tcp.
For example
Some Data > /dev/udp//
Some Data > /dev/tcp/
I used it like
$printf "data" > /dev/udp/ip/port

[RDD] Help RN just won't work

2020-10-23 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

New install on CentOS 7 of Rivendell 3.4.1

This is day number two of trying every possible thing I can think of as to
why this doesn't work.

Things I have tried.

1. various settings for RNRmlOwner
rd rivendell
root root
rd users
rd rd

2. paths
RN with full path
RN without full path
changing $PATH

3. Running env
running the scripts with sh
running in bash

Am I missing something?

These scripts contain commands to control our consoles

[RDD] RN command on version 3

2020-10-22 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Yes I know about the rd.conf setting, but no matter what I try I cannot get
scripts to run from rivendell.

They run fine from terminal as rd or root, but not from any rivendell
module.

This would be a deal breaker for me, so anyone who has moved to version
3.4.1 that can help it would be much appreciated.

2020-10-22 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings yes,

I tried removing the additions I made to the file with no change.
I believe while I was making additions to the file in vi I
accidentally deleted something I guess but, I don't really know what that
was.
The only thing in the file as I recall was the PATH statement and it looks
pretty standard and is still there.

Got a new install of 3.4.1 on centos7 using the rivendell-install from
paravel.
everything was working great.
I made a change to the /etc/environment file to add a path and a couple of
variables we need for console control.
rebooted, now all rd applications respond with
rdadmin: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open

This file is not on the pc that I can find and it appears to be a qt3 file.

[RDD] Updating entire plant

2020-10-21 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

So I want to upgrade our entire plant to Rivendell #.4.1
which is also going to entail converting from Ubuntu to CentOS7.

I have 14 workstations to convert.
We have a dedicated Mysql server.
We have a dedicated Audio server using nfs

So, Since I have one complete CentOS7 machine done and working fine
my thought is 13 hard drives and the dd command.

editing host name and ip and pypad instances are the rivendell things I can
think of that would need editing.

Other pitfalls with this idea?
Another possibility is creating an installable distro from the running
system, but not sure that is possible with CentOS, That is what we always
did with Ubuntu.

Any thoughts appreciated

Cheers

[RDD] New CentOS7 install from paravelsystems rivendell-install

2020-10-20 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

After banging away on Ubuntu 18.04 and version 3.4.1 for weeks
and running into one issue after another I decided to punt
and load up a machine with CentOS7 and go the easy route.

Seems everything installed fine for --client install.

Couple of issues

file browser /home/rd folder will never finish loading
loading folder content... goes on forever (hours with no result)

rddbmgr --modify fails
currently running schema 272 it stops at 277
with this response

DB connection re-established

invalid SQL or failed DB connection[Unknown column 'UDP_ADDR' in 'field
list' QMYSQL: Unable to execute query]: insert into LOG_MACHINES set
STATION_NAME="genews",MACHINE=0,START_MODE=0,AUTO_RESTART="N",LOG_NAME="",CURRENT_LOG="Homefest",RUNNING="N",LOG_ID=-1,LOG_LINE=1,NOW_CART=0,NEXT_CART=0,UDP_ADDR="0.0.0.0",UDP_PORT=5401,UDP_STRING="",LOG_RML=""

STATION_NAME="genews",MACHINE=0,START_MODE=0,AUTO_RESTART="N",LOG_NAME="",CURRENT_LOG="Homefest",RUNNING="N",LOG_ID


Funny because rddbmgr running on ubuntu 18.04 modified the same database
without issue.

I only gave up on Ubuntu because I have 14 Rivendell machines that I have
to upgrade and I just don't have the available downtime to compile and
install on 14 machines.

Greetings,

Ok, well after compiling musicbrainz library from source, make got passed
that string of errors and then stopped in the same manner because of
libcoverart.
I have tried to compile that library from source with no success, with it
make fails because of some problem with libjansson.

I have tried installing different versions of libcoverart and
libcoverart-dev from other repositories with no luck.

I guess we have reached the point with rivendell that if you want to run
version 3 you must run centos.

Re: [RDD] Rivendell v3.3.0

2020-03-30 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

We have been running Rivendell since version 1 almost ten years it seems.
We have always been a debian based facility and never had any problem with
that until version 3.
Although I have no real problems other than getting the dependencies
installed to get version 3 compiled on Ubuntu 18.04
The slow database issue that you speak of has kept us from moving on
to version 3.
Searching can be painfully slow depending on how many songs you have in a
category, The log load at midnight can take 30 seconds or more
which is unacceptable. We actually run Elementary OS in our studios which
is a Ubuntu derivative ( 18.04).

I personally have no problem with the idea of running The appliance for
Centos, but when trying to do that have run into many hardware issues
on our current computers which I don't have with Ubuntu. So that is a
non-starter.

So the argument seems to come down to why don't you replace all your
hardware, (12 workstations)
 run centos and get with the program.

Why do I feel like I'm hearing a Microsoft argument.

If I wanted to replace everything  every year I would have just kept
running a windows based automation
like I was ten years ago.

Still on 2.91

Re: [RDD] Riv with a NAS

2020-03-04 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

We run four stations on Rivendell with. Dedicated NFS server with raid
backup and a dedicated MySQL server. Never had a problem.
My opinion, NFS is the way to go.
Simply setup nfs-kernel server on your storage machine, set up to export
your library directory, have your Rivendell client mount that share as
/var/and

Re: [RDD] Jack dump button

2019-12-13 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings Drew,

Could not that just be a macro that runs a Jack disconnect command after
the delay output. For delay jack ports could be created using avconv or
ffmpeg with a delay buffer inserted.

Just thinking out loud.

In fact there is some delay due to drastic latency on the encode/ decode
process using avconv or ffmpeg. I know because I use those with Jack all
the time to route audio over the network.

Re: [RDD] Running live events, advice sought

2019-10-28 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Here we have one FM the carries Alabama football and basketball, plus
another FM that is total sports and carries as many as five games a week.
We do it all in the main log and have over the years developed routines
that cover most situations "overtime" "running past midnight" etc.
Question is are you talking about network games delivered via satellite  or
local games such as high school ( we do those two ).
 Most networks use at least 3 different contact closures, local, ID, and
end of broadcast, with good planning and these
it is easy to automate sports without ever a need of a board op.
If things are properly addressed I don't see any need to run a separate log
unless you just want to.

I would be glad to help any way I can.

Just reach out and lmk particular events or situations you are dealing with
and I will let you know how we have managed those.

Cheers

Re: [RDD] Digital audio over IP

2019-09-25 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings Sir,

Here are a couple of interesting links.
https://bitbucket.org/MergingTechnologies/ravenna-alsa-lkm/src/master/
Merging Technologies Ravenna AES67 Alsa Driver, gives 8X8 in Rivendell
GPL on alsa driver. License required for OEM
Kernel driver for alsa.
I have installed and got it running, having some issues with PTPD but
working on it.
Should be able to interface with dante running in AES67 mode according to
merging.
They have a separate linux control app which is not GPL
both are in the link.
Merging seems to be very interested in further linux integration.
A lot of live Sound tech guys are getting very nervous about running
windows during a live concert. (can't imagine why)

Here is Digigram link, it is a dante card but has a AES67 mode.

[RDD] RN macro not working because of systemd

2019-09-21 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Running Ubuntu 18.04 systemd version 237.
Systemd is blocking use of the RN macro. Starting rivendell daemons

Wondering if anyone has run across this and found out how to make systemd
behave.

[RDD] GPIO ethernet

2019-09-10 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

I would like to be able to setup back up (redundant) rivendell machines for
our stations, which is easy enough except for having to duplicate gpio's
that they use.

We have a total between our stations of about five different satellite
systems that we receive gpi's from on a daily basis.

It seems like that most efficient way to do this would be to use a Ethernet
gpio that all machines can look at.

Questions are,
Other than the livewire gpio node are there any other Ethernet gpio's that
can be used?
If not can the telos livewire node be used on a non-livewire setup just for
the gpio's?

I realize that I could duplicate identical serial hard wired units, Just
thinking Ethernet is a
more elegant way to go.

Cheers

and Thanks for any input

[RDD] The RN thing again

Greetings,
Indeed running daemons from root shell restores RN to operational.

Do you have suggestions on systemd configuration that will correct it's

Re: [RDD] The RN thing again

2019-09-06 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings Fred,
We are still running version 2.83 I think it is, MySQL issue keeping me
from going to 3 at this point.
Rivendell user is rduser member of rivendell and audio.
In 14.04 the scripts run well owned by rduser with group rivendell.

The script sends a udp packet to the consoles. I was never ever able to get
the macro UO to work to do this, hence the script.

Run from command line as rduser or root they work.

Workstation up is set to actual ip in rdadmin.

Thanks for the help

[RDD] The RN thing again

2019-09-06 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

I am trying desperately to upgrade the OS on my workstations
and RN macro that was working on Ubuntu 14.04 is not working on 18.04

The script that the macro is trying to run is a switcher control command
that works fine from the command line.
Sometimes it will work from rdlibrary for a few minutes using runcart but
them will
stop working.
It never works from rdairplay or rdpanell.
The scripts are located on the same directory as caed rdcatchd and ripcd.
The scripts are 777
owned by user root group rivendell

everything we do requires the use of RN from the log, it's how we control
switchers, consoles, and everything except the coffee pot ( it's still on
Manual)

Obviously is permissions related i guess.

I tried running rivendell daemons as rduser and it worked for a short time
then stopped.

I have tried changing ownership of the scripts to rduser:rivendell
root:rivendell root:root
nothing seems to fix the issue. Once again from command line it all works.

Any thoughts appreciated.

[RDD] Next event

2019-08-29 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

As most know HD radio and artist experience rely on NEXT EVENT to preload
images before
the cart fires. Checking out some issues I have been having in this regard
with some song info not being sent until the cart actually fires, i have
noticed that in Rivendell the "next" is not being sent when there is a
voicetrack between songs. However when there is a station liner which like
voicetracks is not in a Now group it does.

Curious as to why this happens with voicetracks

[RDD] Rdcatch and record starting via a macro

2019-08-26 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,
Have a situation where I want a rdcatch record event to start and stop when
a program segment on another workstation begins and ends, and the time
floats somewhat.

I would like to use a macro in the log to send the record start and end
command to the remote
rdcatch machine?

it's just there seems to be maybe a couple of different ways to do this.

One is maybe send a gpi set to the rdcatch machine using CC

Or just use a combo of CC and RS then CC RR

wondering if there is a way to force the ftp upload in rdcatch to force
passive mode.
I can upload to our new website server from the command line by entering

rdcatch fails every time so i believe this is the problem.

[RDD] Fwd: Sound cards

2019-08-21 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

In the case of the X32 usb interface, it is powered by the same rails as
the console.
According to Music-Tribe the clip point on the x32 usb interface and their
other expansion cards is +16dbm
Interface is 24 bit at whatever sample rate the console is running.
I haven't put it on the test bench, but that spec would put it in line with
the channel inputs on the console
which I guess makes sense.

Greetings Rob,

Of course it always depends on your needs, but on each station we use a
Behringer X32 rack, which is in itself a console
however it gives you 32 in and 32 outs via usb which can easily be
configured as 16 stereo in and outs or a combination of stereo and mono.
It works a charm and can be used with alsa or jack all for less than 1100
bucks.
Plus you can control all channel mutes, level, via macros from rivendell.

May not be a solution for everyone but 32 io's for less than 1100 is a good
deal.

Re: [RDD] Rivendell to Barix MA400

2019-08-16 Thread Tim Camp
Chester,
Not sure about SIP but I wouldn't be surprised it it's possible, it is kind
of a swiss army knife.
I use it to send to Tieline Bridge-it's at three different transmitter
sites which does several things for me.
One, I don't have to buy a tieline unit for the studio.
Two, connection straight from Rivendell through Jack to the transmitter
site so no conversion back to analog, AES goes from Tieline straight into
processing
so everything is digital from Rivendell to transmitter.
I actually run three radio stations (translators) from one instance of
Rdairplay to jack to 3 instances of avconv to 3 transmitters.

If i get time I will look into the SIP question cause I simply don't know.

I do something similar using jack in combination with avconv.
Here is the command line I use for mp2
avconv -f jack -ac 2 -i LABEL -acodec mp2 -b:a 256k -f rtp rtp://*ip:port*

This creates a jack plug (LABEL) for the connection, sets the codec, rate,
and the destination.
It also can support opus.

[RDD] Now Center Stage

2019-06-17 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

According to Artic Palm they have several stations using their software who
are running Rivendell.

If anyone is? What rlm are you using?
Specifically trying to get around (once again) send duration in the format
they desire which is either total seconds or mm:as

Now and next of course outputs duration in milliseconds.

Trying to not have to add a script into this process to convert.

[RDD] Chrome OS 74

2019-05-03 Thread Tim Camp
Just a interesting note...
Chromeos 74 not only gives the ability to run linux apps but also gives
those apps access to hardware such as usb and sound cards so as a fun
experiment I just installed Rivendell 3.0 on a chromebook and everything
seems to be working fine.

Don't know what practical applications this may have in the future, and it
does require a bit of command line finagling to get it installed, but there
it is, it can be done.

[RDD] Rivendell3.0rc0.0

2019-04-10 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

After several days in a production run on one of our translators
there seems to be a problem with the database schema.

Query delays causing logs to load slowly in rdairplay being the chief
problem as a log chain at the end of the day causes about 15 seconds of
dead air.

Likewise loading lists in rdlibrary are painfully slow.

Curiously loading the same log that is slow in rdairplay of 700 plus lines
in rdlogedit loads almost immediately.

All this on same network router connected to same mysql server that we run
2.18 on.

2.18 shows no delay at all, except selecting all in rdlibrary which can
take about 5 seconds to load. Same thing in 3.0 takes about seven minutes.

We have move our translator back to 2.18 for now, but are looking forward
to 3.0 with the caveat that cause of this slowness can be found.

No other issues have been discovered.

Cheers

[RDD] Rivendell 3.0 RC 0

2019-04-01 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

One of the final tests that I wanted to do on the RC was attach to my
current station db to see how that went.
Not so well.

I made a copy of the db of course.

Running rddbmgr --modify immediately produced a string of errors about
"unknown" columns all
related to the now and next page in rdairplay.

Then crashed on a error about a log file from a now non-existent service on
one particular workstation.

Next step was, I thought, since this was probably something orphaned that I
would run rddbcheck (from current schema) before trying to convert it
again. (I did this on a fresh copy)
Running rddbcheck went smoothly finding many orphaned items until reaching
the section checking audio file lengths.

Once it reached this point all the audio on air on four radio stations
stopped as rddbcheck hung on the first file it was checking. I had to do a
cntrl-c to exit at which time all audio on four stations continued.
This test machine was running it's own db server but was still connecting
to my plants /var/snd.

Trying to decide the next move.

[RDD] Pypad

2019-03-27 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Running The 3.0rc through it's paces.
Have been running three logs 24 hours a day for several days,
Importing, exporting, creating and editing and have not run across
any bugs, glitches or hiccups. All in all, very smooth.

Last thing I really want to play with is now and next because our plant is
intensive in this respect.
Four stations sending info to app, tunein, hd transmitter, rds and web.

So I have started trying to get pypad set up and am running into some
problems which i'm sure are simply me not having something setup properly.

Is there any short tutorial on this yet?

I have got the scripts instances installed and configured but having errors
with site id and user not found so I know there's something I haven't
configured that is hanging me up.

Any guidance appreciated.
So far my experience with this rc has got me excited, looking forward to
the release.

btw running on ubuntu 18.04

[RDD] Strange RdAirPlay freezes

2019-03-26 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Recently on a machine that has been in service for several years with no
problems
we have had rdairplay freeze when firing the first cart in a stop set.
(coming off of satellite).
The syslog shows the cart starting, but the funny thing is the sending now
and next pad info doesn't happen until sometimes ten minutes later.
(usually the very next event in the log)
It never shows playout completed.

During that period rdairplay is frozen.

The rest of the stopset never plays and it sometimes requires a reboot to
get things going again. Sometimes it just sits until the next timed event,
then syslog shows it continuing at that point.

The rlm for now and next is a filewrite_rlm which writes to a windows share
that is loaded through fstab on boot.

Since this just started recently and there was a change to that windows
machine I'm wondering if this has some correlation.

Could the inability to write to the file because of some issue cause
rdairplay to freak?

This doesn't happen all the time, but always on the first cart to be fired
coming out of satellite programming.

Syslog shows that it receives gpi's and such during the time it is locked
up so it appears to be isolated to rdairplay.

As I stated this box has been on the air since 2.18.2 came out and has
never ever acted up.
Rivendell 2.18.2 running on lubuntu 14.04

Any Thoughts appreciated.

Has anyone have experience sending now and next info to jump to go.

They wanted UDP string which is easy, but they want the duration to be in
the format of mm:ss instead of the millisecond output that the UDP module
sends.

Then of course I've never heard of rivendell and believe that it's going to
be impossible to interface with it and we all know that rivendell can do
anything we just got to get it configured correctly.

Maybe I am using it wrong?
When used does this change the cart assignment you would see in RDadmin?

Re: [RDD] rdairplay audio dropouts

2018-07-06 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Well we had previously used a cifs connection to the windows box, but the
mount point being in the user directory would cause the file manager
sometimes 15 minutes to populate waiting on the windows box. This made it
rdlogmanger lockup when trying to create a log as it was looking for that
mount point
for traffic import. we thought going the other way would stop this problem
(which it did) but now we have this problem.

As I said it only happens during the day when that mount point is being
used by the traffic system.

rivendell only needs that share for the short time it takes to import
traffic, but of course the traffic system needs to see it all the time.

Wondering if I am going to have to go back to the old way of just sending
the log over via ftp, which was the method years ago.

maybe I can write a short batch file for the traffic girl to run after she
finishes the log.

[RDD] rdairplay audio dropouts

2018-07-06 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

Here's one for you.

Having a situation where rdairplay on a client machine, meaning audio store
and mysql are not located locally, starts having dropouts of audio and
trouble connecting to the database. Many rivendell machines on this system
and this is the only one with the problem.

I tracked it down to this.

Machine network interface is totally overwhelmed from a windows traffic
machine which is attaching to a nfs share on the same box. This doesn't
happen all the time but when it does as you can imagine panic ensues.

If I shutdown the nfs-kernel server problem goes away. If I disconnect the
windows machine problem goes away.

So question is what is this windows box doing that is polling this share so
intensely that all other network traffic slows to a halt.

This connection is simply there so traffic logs and be sent over the network
to the rivendell machine. I have tried connecting to the windows box going
the other way using cifs but this too causes other issues.

For some reason this windows box and this linux box don't like each other.

I should say that it is the column widths that reset not the order, however
the order resets on restart of rdairplay

[RDD] RdAirplay Log panel columns

2018-06-22 Thread Tim Camp
Greetings,

I ask this question nine years ago so I thought I would revisit it.
I've got some very superficial requests from my air staff.
Here are the questions

Is there any way to lock down the order of columns of the log panel in
Rdairplay? they are constantly changing on refresh.

[RDD] Copy Paste 2.18.2

2018-02-05 Thread Tim Camp
 Greetings,

I had this issue which was known in 2.17 and was told it was fixed in
2.18.2.
However it still persists.

After upgrading all clients in the group to 2.18.2 if you copy a cut from
one cart to a cut in another cart, it will not play and if you hit edit
markers you get a cannot read peak data error.

Because we are launching a couple of new stations there are some things
that a need a copy of in a new group. i have been trying to avoid having to
export or re-rip these songs.

Anyway still no go on copy paste.

Redirected all clients.
Now on any client you can record, you can import into a already existing

Error is unable to create destination file

I know of course the cost factor of SSD just wonder if there is enough data

Re: [RDD] Using 2.17 with jack

2018-01-21 Thread Tim Camp
Well have tried all suggestions and still can only register rivendell as a
jack client if jackd is started as root. Can start rivendell as user, start
jack as user, no client. Start rivendell as user, start jack as Root, we
have client.
The of course all other programs can't use jack unless they are started as
root.

This is a production room machine, so I have to have Ardour and Audacity
working with jack as well as rivendell.

User is part of real-time so I don't have to have root to run jack.

Gonna look at /var/run/rivendell, that has to be where the problem is.

This is Debian btw, not Ubuntu

Karl

Thanks, that is exactly what I'm working on right now.
jackd is running as the rivendell user
rivendell only will connect to jack if I run jack as root
then I have to run anything I want to connect to jack as root (not what I
want to do)
I can start jackd from command line as either user or root but rivendell
only sees it if started as root


Might have something to do with how I start rivendell daemons
starting as a service as root, only way I can get them to start.

Thanks

Tim
