I believe the "Log:" text box in RDAdmin > Manage Hosts > [hostname] > RDAirplay allows you to name either a) the name of a specific log to load on startup, or b) a wildcard pattern representing a log to load. See Table E.2 in the Ops Guide (http://opsguide.rivendellaudio.org/html/appendix.metadata_wildcards.html) for details about wildcard patterns. I've just peeked at the RDAirplay sources and don't see anything about options for specifying Log startup as you've shown above (and that are accepted on the rdairplay(1) command line). My recollection is that on startup (launching from a menu) RDAirplay *used to* fire the next Timed event when the time came (as expected). It seems that it's not doing that as of 3.4.1 (and now 3.5.0). I just started RDAirplay with a log containing hourly (top of the hour) "Timed, Make Next" events, and the log did *not* start at at the specified time. I tried it with the event transition set to "Segue" and "Play"; no difference. When I changed the event to "Timed, Start Immediately", it *did* cause RDAirplay to play the log at the specified time. More investigation needed...
