Re: [RDD] Log refresh question

[Jamie Dominey]

I have seen this happen as well randomly for several years over many 
different versions.  I never have been able to figure out what causes 
it.  Most of the time it works fine, but occasionally several hours of 
the log will go missing when refreshed.

The number of these connections keeps increasing every day until I hit 
the maximum number of connections and then I have to reboot all 
machines.  I have tried killing them, but they just come back instantly 
with another process ID. Rebooting a client will kill the connections 
from that client, but they will continue to slowly increase again.  Can 
anyone please point me in the right direction as to what may be causing 
this?


Thanks

[RDD] rddbcheck

[Jamie Dominey]

I'm trying to run rddbcheck with v3.03, but I get command not found.  It 
this still included with Rivendell?  The Operation Guide still mentions 
it. My install is on CentOS 7 using the install scripts.  Does it have 
to be installed separately, or should it be there when installed using 
the installer script?


I have tried this on both a new and an upgraded install and can't find 
it on either.

Re: [RDD] Rivendell v3.0.1

[Jamie Dominey]

Thanks for this update.

Can a 2.x Rivendell install be updated to 3.01 using 'yum update 
rivendell', or does it have to be reinstalled?


Thanks

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to
announce the availability of the first production release of the next
major version of Rivendell, 3.0.1. Rivendell is a full-featured radio
automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast
environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License
version 2.

 From the 'NEWS' file:

*** snip snip ***
Changes:
Rivendell is now Unicode UTF-8 clean.

Qt4 is now used throughout Rivendell instead of Qt3.

A multicast update system has been added that allows Rivendell
modules to update views syncronously in step with changes made in
other modules.

The Rivendell Loadable Modules system for processing PAD data has
been completely replaced by PyPAD, allowing PAD processing plug-ins
to be written in the popular Python scripting langauge. Backward
compatible replacement scripts for many of the RLM plug-ins supplied
in Rivendell v2.x are included.

Added a compatibility library to facilitate the use of the Rivendell
Web API in external applications.

A system of virtual log machines has been added, allowing play-out
of up to 23 logs simultaneously.

Rivendell is now fully systemd compatibile.

The Windows ports of rdlogedit(1) and rdlogmanager(1) have been
removed.

Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 308, and will
automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current
schema version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.

Be sure to run 'rddbmgr --modify' (as root) immediately after
upgrading to allow any necessary changes to the database schema to
be applied.
*** snip snip ***

GETTING AND TRYING THIS RELEASE

Full source code for this release is available at:
 
https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/releases/tag/v3.0.1


Be sure to throughly read and understand the 'INSTALL' and 'UPGRADING'
files in the root of the source tree, as they contain important
information about changes between previous major Rivendell versions and
v3.x.

An upgradable CentOS 7 online installer is available. This is the
quickest and easiest way actually to try this release for yourself.
Instructions can be found at:

Re: [RDD] [Action required] We’re updating Linux system requirements

[Jamie Dominey]

We migrated away from using "Dropbox" several months ago and switched to 
a Nextcloud server running on a Raspberry Pi.  I haven't tried the 
client with CentOS 6, but it works well with CentOS 7 and is very 
similar to "Dropbox".

CentOS 6 is based on glib 2.12, while CentOS 7 uses 2.17. Thus, it 
would appear that Dropbox (capital ‘D’, the commercial online service) 
will no longer work on either of those environments after 10/15/2018. 
This is *not* to be confused with ‘dropbox’ (lower-case ‘d’, the 
Rivendell importation service), which will continue to work as before.




Even if the app doesn’t work, will the folder still sync correctly?


Presumably not.

This is not a Rivendell issue. Dropbox is a closed-source, proprietary 
system; you will need to ask them I’m afraid.

[RDD] [music import] [traffic import] in logs

[Jamie Dominey]

Hi Folks,

Since version 2.19.0 the [music import] and [traffic import] links are 
being left in the log after music and traffic are merged.  I see the 
change is noted in the change log for 2.19.0.


First, am I doing something wrong that these are not being removed when 
I merge the logs, and if not, how are others dealing with them.  They 
cause no issue when in auto, but in manual it leaves a bunch of carts 
that are not playable, and it making voice tracking difficult.  I have 
to manually edit and remove them all, before voice tracking so I can set 
the overlaps correctly.


Is there a way to remove them all?  If there isn't a way to remove them 
all, will rolling back to version 2.18.2 corrupt the database?


Thanks for you help.

Jamie

Re: [RDD] Broadcast Appliance can't start daemons

[Jamie Dominey]

Swapping audio cards fixed this issue.  Thanks to everyone who helped.
It didn't get me much farther though.  When I try to restore the
database, that I have just backed up on my production machine, it
crashes and corrupts the database.  If I dump the database it will
create a new one, but still will not allow me to restore.  Both systems
are on the same version 2.10.3.  I will tackle it again tomorrow, but I
think I'm ready to dump the appliance and go back to Ubuntu.

Re: [RDD] Broadcast Appliance can't start daemons

[Jamie Dominey]

The odd part though, is it worked until the upgrades were applied.  The
hardware hasn't changed.  It's not an ASI card.  This pc will be the
server on a client/server setup and was installed using the 2 disk 0
spare option of the appliance CD.  I will disable this card and install
one that supports 48000 and see if it helps.

Thanks

[RDD] Broadcast Appliance can't start daemons

[Jamie Dominey]

I've been running Rivendell on Ubuntu for several years, but want to
move to the broadcast appliance.

I did a new install of the broadcast appliance and everything seemed to
work well until I ran the software updater and installed all updates.  I
believe this updated the OS to Centos 6.7  Now the rivendell daemons
will not start.  Is there an easy fix for this, or do I need to start
over and only update Rivendell?

Thanks

[Jamie Dominey]

I can't check /var/log/messages until I'm back in that building, but the
first thing I tried to run was rdadmin which should have updated the
database.

[RDD] RDLibrary issue

[Jamie Dominey]

Hi folks,

Yesterday I noticed RDLibrary is reporting very little time remaining.
All 3 workstations are showing 2 hours remaining time.  There is
actually 1.3 terrabytes free when I check /var/snd from any of the
workstations.  I'm not sure if this is a software bug, or a problem with
my install, but it did report properly until recently.  I upgraded to
2.10.3 about a month ago and it could have started then, but I just
noticed it yesterday.  

Has anyone else seen this, or know the cause?  It in on Ubuntu 12.04
using the Tryphon repos.

Thanks

Re: [RDD] RML command line in now and next

[Jamie Dominey]

I noticed it.  Not sure when it changed, but I eventual figured out that
it was what broke rdstreamdata.  Adding a \r to the end the the string
fixed it for me.

 Greetings,
 
 
 Was wondering why in version 2.8..4 I believe it is that you cannot
 output a newline

 %r doesn't do it
 %R doesn't do it
 and the text box will not allow a \ character so you can't put in \n

 Hello Jamie.
 
 
 I have written part of the rdstreamdata few years ago.
 
 
 Some unpublished changes were made last year to make it work
 with Rivendell 2.8 under Ubuntu 12.04, I remember that I have
 had to split it into 2 daemons, one was written in Python and
 writes UDP output from Rivendell into a file, the other one
 actually updates the Icecast/Shoutcast server. These 2 daemons
 are started by Upstart Jobs.
 
 
 I have this experimental version working on a Rivendell
 deployment that I don't have easy access now.
 I'll try to grab them ASAP and send to you somehow.
 
 
 Thanks for using it.

[RDD] rdstreamdata

[Jamie Dominey]

I've had been using rdstreamdata to update the metadata to my shoutcast
cast server for a few years, and it worked well until a few months ago.
When I updated Rivendell to 2.80, rdstreamdata stopped working
correctly.  What is happpening is the file /tmp/rdstreamdata.tmp that
stores the current song title is getting the next song added to file,
but it is not replacing the previous song.  The more songs that are
played, the longer the list in /tmp/rdstreamdata.tmp gets and it sends
the whole list to the shoutcast server.  If i manually
delete /tmp/rdstreamdata.tmp, it starts over.  I'm using the tryphon
packages on Ubuntu 12.04.  I have no idea what is causing this or how to
fix it, but it started after I updated Rivendell.  Has anyone else had
this issue, or better yet found a fix for it?

I was having an issue similar to this when I switched from version 1 to

Hi Guys,


I Think I figured out a solution.

Now the voicetracker responds in less than a second to the save button.

Re: [RDD] Icecast Title Streaming Ubuntu 12.04

[Jamie Dominey]

I have rdstreamdata working on 12.04 LTS 64 bit and a shoutcast server.
I just followed the instructions and it worked.  I do have netcat, lynx
and awk installed because I had also tried streamdata v 1.0. I believe
one of these is required for rdstreamdata.

I haven't tried the rlm icecast2 module, but did use the rlm shoutcast
module and switched back to rdstreamdata because the rlm shoutcast
module does not send default data to the server when the song ends.  We
have a few hosts who play a lot of CD's, and with rlm shoutcast, the
last song played by the automation would stay there until another song
was played from the automation.  rdstreamdata will send a default text
such as the station name when the automation is not being used, or is
playing audio that now and next is not enabled for.  This may not matter
in your setup.

 Hi Jamie,
 
 I have 80 carts numbered from 3460 to 3540 that contain the
 temperatures from minus 40 to plus 40. In actuality, each of those
 carts has a dj reading it's minus 40 in Saskatoon or it's minus 39
 in Saskatoon ... etc. 
 All the audio for carts in Rivendell are stored in /var/snd ie. the
 audio for cart number 3460 is /var/snd/003460_001.wav so here's what
 my script does:
 cd /var/snd#change directory to /var/snd
 rm -f canada_e.html 
 wget -q http://text.weatheroffice.gc.ca/canada_e.html  #grab the
 text version of the temperature website
 j=`cat canada_e.html |grep Saskatoon |sed -e :a -e
 's/[^]*//g;//N;//ba; s/[a-zA-Z;]//g'`  #strip out everything
 except the temperature in Saskatoon for example 15
  s=$((3500+$j))  #in our 15 degree example s would
 equal 3515
  file=00${s}_001.wav   #the audio file that corresponds to 15
 degrees is 003515_001.wav
 cp $file 004000_001.wav  #replace the 004000_001.wav audio with,
 in our example, the 003515_001.wav audio so when cart 4000 is played
 it will say it's 15 degrees in Saskatoon.
 
 
 The script is called commandtoextracttemperature.sh and is stored in
 my home directory and made executable. This line in the root crontab 
 4,24,44 * * * * /home/robert/commandtoextracttemperature.sh
 fires the script every 20 minutes and I insert cart 4000 any time in
 the log that I want the current temperature recording to play.
 
 Note, messing with the audio in /var/snd is not the approved method of
 doing things in Rivendell. I should be doing an rdimport command. But
 it works for me and I wrote that script many years ago before I knew
 you could import without the gui.
 
 
 
 Hope that helps.
 Robert

Re: [RDD] Web based voice tracking and playlist editor

[Jamie Dominey]

The systems that I have seen, have all used a client that connects to a
server at the studio rather than a browser.  Most of them will download
a low bitrate version of the songs or the beginning and end of the songs
before and after where the voice track will be placed.  The voice tracks
are recorded on the local pc using a client interface similar to the one
used to voice track in the studio and the tracks get uploaded and synced
up after the recording is finished.  If you google remote voice
tracking you will find several examples.  I'm not a programmer and have
no idea how much work it is to implement something like this into
Rivendell, but it is one of the few missing features in a great
automation package.

 I might be mistaken as to the process, but I recall some company pulled this 
 off about 10 years ago by allowing the remote jock to record a dry VT, 
 visually slip some tracks on a screen to fit, then hit a GO button. The Big 
 Box at the other end would import the VT, quickly render *only* the duration 
 of the break - three seconds either side of the VT - squish it down to a 
 heavily compressed MP3 and send that back to the jock for a QC check.
 
 As I'm involved in talk programming these days, I'm not too close to music 
 stations that VT these days and I'm sure a lot has changed. But at the time I 
 saw this a decade ago, it was a fairly efficient way to do it. No need to 
 make a compressed copy of the whole tune; just render the essence of the 
 break, once assembled, and send that along.

 I have been playing with drop boxes whereby announcers record their

 pick those file names up and insert them in to the appropriate cart. 

 I have seen other commercials products that have web based voice

 something like that it would be fantastic. 
 
 It would also be handy if you could log in to a web system and view

 Would there be anything out there like that?
