It would be nice to mention: use RDCatch to hard load next days playlist at the
moment you usually use the "Play Next (make next)" cart. I have a clock without
the "Play Next (make next)" cart scheduled for 23-00 and a clock with the "Play
Next (make next)" cart at 00.00 for 00-01. Therefore, if you hard load next
days playlist with RDCatch, the "Play Next" command gets on top of the list
again. The 00-01 clock has, of course, the "Play Next (make next)" cart also
scheduled at the end of the clock (in my case XX:58:30).
Cheers, Peter.

Hi,
unfortunately "Wait up" means it waits exactly the time and then start
the event. I always combine "wait up" with a "make next", like Peter
suggest.
E.g.:
00:59:45 make next (empty macro, "cleans up" the log at this time)
01:00:00 wait up to 3 minutes (cart with time announcement)
If the song ends between 00:59:45 and 1:03:00, then the announcement
will be broadcast after that song. A song will only be interrupted, when
its longer then 3:15 (assuming it is starting at 00:59:44.9). In our
case just in a few cases the songs are interrupted. (this is the night
schedule)
For news we use the same approach, but with 1min wait-up-to time.
Still, I think a real "wait up to" would be nice. Can anybody tell me,
for what this "delayed hard time" (which sounds for me as a more
accurate label for this feature) is useful?
Best
Keywan
