Thanks Rob, Well the announcement would be in a rivendell dropbox folder, for automatic import.
So I guess it is only do-able with a shell script. Encounterd approx the same problem for 'dry' news items, to add intro/bed and outro .. If no item is available. Guess some creativeness is needed there Regards Peter Op di 22 jan. 2019 om 21:22 schreef Rob Landry <41001...@interpring.com>: > > What is the criterion to be used to determine whether or not there are > announcements? > > I would set up a macro to run an external shell script to determine if > there are announcements; if there are, turn on the TA flag, run the > announements, turn off the flag, and resume normal airplay.
