Hi,
As a quick note, don't use timed events for midnight and you'll be
fine, it works most of the time, but occasionally timing glitches mean
it doesn't.
You can use cron as mentioned however Riv will work if you use Aux logs
and no hard midnight timings.
I do this:
Main Log:
-- Hard Timed make next for 23:59:50 just before the log chain
Aux Log:
-- Hard Timed Macro Fade down over 5 seconds and then play next for
23:59:55
This achieves the following:
23:59:50 all excess dumped from the main log leaving the currently
playing event and the log chain
23:59:55 Aux kicks in and fades down the main log
00:00:00 Aux "plays" the log chain via play next
I've used this for the past 4 years without any issues. I also use Aux
for top/bottom of the hour fades in a similar way, just remember to use
a sleep macro the same length as your fade or everything instantly
executes:
e.g.
Fade 3000 (3 second fade)
Sleep 3000 (3 second wait)
Play Next
Regards,
Wayne

Ive been using the auto generated log chain every day for a year now
and it has never given trouble. The only thing I do is to not worry
about being exact. I have a timed make next event that pulls short
songs (less than 3 min) with a schedule code at 23:57:40 so it bumps
anything extra in the hour. When it finishes, the next days log
loads.
Its always a little after midnight but not enough to worry about. I
have bottom of the hour and top of the hour IDs that are timed make
next that also gives a bit of time correction throughout the day when
we are not live so its not been a problem.

i started putting rivendell into production years ago, so i went for
a simple cronjob executed at 00:00 every day.
