Hmm, that looks very complicated... My situation.: Clock 23 59:00 Backtimer bevor news (wait 45) 59:59 Soundcard line IN switch On Air listen the news while the log is loading. Clock 00 (Next day) 00:00 Soundcard line IN switch On Air (again) 05:00 Soundcard Line IN switch Off Air 05:00 Opener... Thats running very nice since 2 - 3 years. But not yesterday. Sometimes i have logs only filled with backtimer, macro ... But without music. Don't no why. But that happens only 1-2 times/year... -- -- Ruediger Radio Ostfriesland Techniksupport Automation _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
