I'm not very familiar with RDcatch because I don't use it but we have been downloading programs from the AMR100 and importing them into Rivendell automatically with dates set where desired for over a year. I set the target folder in amb-ux.conf to my desired location on the Riv server and then run a script every few hours (or as often as desired) by a cron job that runs rdimport with all the options to set the carts, date-offsets, normalization, etc and it does it faithfully. The only glitch in my setup is that on the rare occasion that I reboot the server after updates (maybe2-3x per year), the amb-ux service needs to restart and when it does, all the last three days' audio files reload into my target folder for import which can cause duplicates in the library if I don't remove them first. There are ways around this which I am experimenting on and not being real versatile in linux and busy with many other things, this comes slow for me. Bottom line, if you are wanting to import audio from the AMR100 to play at a specific date and time, you can use rdimport and not mess with RDcatch. Others may have better enlightenment on this, however.
If you are setting up RDcatch to get ftp files beyond the AMR100 files, I use Filezilla and chose to not automate the importation of these because of date and editing issues. The production people, often students, need to check the audio and make sure all the dates and titles are correct.
