Re: [RDD] CentOS 7 to CentOS 8

2020-03-21 Thread Bob Reite
I just built a new Rivendell machine. Rather than deal with possible dependency issues, I simply installed CentOS 7 on a virgin hard drive, then installed the appliance from Paravel. CentOS is still available and will remain supported until 30 June 2024. On 3/21/20 1:36 PM, David Klann wrote: >

Agreed. I have a client running a Dell. I got him back on the air by putting in a standard ATX power supply with the DVD drive disconnected and the machine laying on it's side with the power supply on the table. I found a used working Dell supply on Ebay for a replacement and I plan to repair th

I tried the version 2.1.2 on a test machine and had problems getting it to recognize my ASI6044 card. So I reverted to the Paravel 1.0.0 version, which worked perfectly with the ASI6044 card out of the box. Another distribution to consider if you are going to try and "get by" with the sound c

If you aren't going to turn it into a Linux box, you can get rid of "Metro" and make it look and work like Windows 7 by downloading and installing "Classic Shell". Classic Shell is free. On 5/15/13 9:34 AM, Cowboy wrote: > On Wednesday 15 May 2013 08:43:17 am Alan Peterson wrote: >> Seeing on t

I found that when I batch imported audio from a Scott Studios system, all of the cart chunk data was transferred, including title, artist, duration, and intro times. YMMV. On 1/10/12 6:07 AM, Andy McCall wrote: > Hi all > We need to import a huge amount of audio into rivendell, taking as > litt

2011-11-27 Thread Bob Reite
One of my biggest gripes about Scott Studios is that it doesn't play MP3 files, they have to be converted into something else first. Maybe not a big deal if it's just 60 sec spots, but one of the stations that I take care of gets hour long programs as MP3 files that have to be converted in TLC

2011-11-27 Thread Bob Reite
As I recall Scott Studios puts the metadata at the beginning of the file. Cart Chunk may be placed at the end of the file. If you already have SS-32, you should have the TLC utility for creating audio files for the system. Use TLC to import audio into Scott Studios, and then when you are read

Is there any way to make RDAirPlay load and play a "default" or "fallback" log in case the next days log is missing? As it stands now the system simply quits if the log being chained to is missing. Other automation systems such as Scott Studios let you define a "default" log that gets loaded i
