[RDD] Help with SQL command

2016-12-12 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

I need to output a text file that lists all my music from the SQL
database, can anyone help me?

It should include the following:

1. cart#
2. Artist name
3. Title name
4. Album name
5. Scheduler code

encoding should be UTF-8

-  each line contains of one entry for one file

-  each line consists of fields which are TAB separated (or
any other seperator)

-  each line is separated by LF or CRLF

Thank you!

Kind regards,

Morten

Rivendell v3, interesting... Are there some breaking new features
planned? Remote voicetracking client? Voicetracker in RdAirplay?

Thank you...

[RDD] Remote voicetrack?

2016-12-02 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

We have some radiohosts living far away from our studio that wants to
make some shows for us (voicetrack in our log). I don't want to switch
to Simian for this feature!

Searching the mailinglist shows that there has been some experiments...

But has anyone found a good way to do remote voicetracking?

[RDD] ALSA loop-driver

2016-03-21 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

I'm creating a small PC without soundcard that needs to run a non-stop
internetradio.

I'm noot good friends with Jack, so I created an ALSA loop-soundcard:
http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-aloop
It works fine with the Appliance CD - RD Airplay can play and I can
record with Audacity when I select Loopback PCM hw:0,1
But I need to stream to Icecast. But Glasscoder just quits when I type
hw:0,1 in ALSA-source

I've also tried Darkice which says there are sample-rate issues (I've
tried both 44,1 and 48000)

Why won't it work?

Thank you!

 Hi all!

 Just thought I'd share with you that I got Rivendell running flawlessly
 on a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B.

 I haven't exercised every last dark corner of Rivendell on it, but
 RDLibrary, RDLogEdit, RDAdmin, and RDAirplay all seem to work perfectly.

 I installed it on Raspbian (which I installed using NOOBS), compiling it
 from source. I didn't have to do anything out of the ordinary or specific
 to the Pi. The instructions
 http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/Compiling_Rivendell_from_Source for
 compiling the source on Debian worked without modification on Raspbian. It
 took quite a while to compile, of course. I'm not sure how long exactly,
 because I went to bed and when I got up in the morning it was done. It
 compiled perfectly on the first try with no errors.

 I configured it as a full standalone Rivendell system, with everything
 needed for full operation running locally, including the MySQL server, etc.

 For simplicity, I opted to just use ALSA directly, so I didn't bother
 with JACK.

 Hi all,

 Off topic but I had to build an audio codec for very little money and at
 short notice (less than 12 hours).  Now that the heart attack has finished
 I wrote up the install with some pictures over on github.

 https://github.com/waynemerricks/picodec

 I think all in, it cost less than £150.  For that I get audio restreaming
 onto standard XLR ports with standard IEC power connectors in a 1U box.

 It also emails when things happen and provides reverse ssh for remote
 administration.

 Feel free to message on or off list if anyone is crazy enough to follow my
 ramblings.

 Yet another thing you need to make sure is right is your asound.conf
 file.  This configures all your ALSA sound devices and as well as appears
 to set up Rivendell to use Jackd.  Rivendell comes with a little program
 called rdalsaconfig that helps write this for you.  It turns out that
 ALSA itself has quite a bit of power/flexibility to do all kinds of odd
 things with sound hardware beyond how most people use.

 Note that you can have a master asound.conf file in /etc but then have
 a different hidden one in your user root directory called .asound.conf
 (note the .), which will override the master one. This got me once, so
 be aware.

 I had to learn about some of this a few years ago when setting up a
 Rivendell workstation that I wanted to work in reasonable fashion in two
 different modes:  When it is plugged into our airchain audio device
 (which is a convenient external USB multi-channel audio device) or
 offline when not connected to such and therefore just using the simple
 audio that is integrated into the motherboard.  I also wanted to use some
 loopback audio devices that the Jack Audio resamplers use
 (alsa_in/alsa_out) to work with additional sound devices and/or non jack
 compliant software in a less than desirable way.  I got it all to work
 (modes are only automatically detected and thus configured upon bootup
 however), but have since forgotten some of the details of how I did it, so
 would need to review my config files.

 I totally agree that jackd and all clients of jackd (like rivendell and
 your processor software) needs to be run with the same user credentials, or
 at least I've never been able to get them to run any other way.

 I agree that jackd is temperamental to get running, but once you get
 there I've found it to be awesome and stable, so well worth the effort.

 OK, let's try this again and I'll be more direct.  Getting acquainted
 with Rivendell Appliance v2.10.2 and want to connect to jackd server in
 order to use processing (stereo tool).  Here are my specific issues so
 far:

 (1) Since Jack must be run as same owner as Rivendell daemons...
 I checked and seem to have a combination of user/owner assignments (no
 doubt revealing my linux ignorance).

 When I ls -l /var/run/rivendell the result is...

 caed and ripcd are rivendell:root
 jackd and rdcatchd are root:root

 so, I changed jackd to rivendell:root and the result was still no
 evidence of jack in the Rivendell host Audio resource listing, or
 Rivendell in the jack connect list.  Yes I restarted rivendell services
 with no change.

 Also, if it matters,
 When I ls -l /var   the result is...
 /var/snd is rivendell:rivendell

 (2) ...and this is likely a hitch, in Rivendell Manage HostsJack
 Settings, I've checked the box to start the server, added the default
 name, but not sure what goes in the command line(s) for Jack and Jack
 clients (if anything).

 Probably all very elementary, but perhaps setting specific to the
 appliance.  Greatly appreciate any suggestions

[RDD] One item missing every day (bug?)

2015-05-12 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

This has happened the last two years, where I've always been running the
latest version of Rivendell:

Every day I generate a log for the next day, and every day one item isn't
scheduled/placed in the log. Some days an ID are missing after the
commercials, some days an eighties song is missing so we get two new songs
in a row, and right now the news-file was missing :-(

One random item isn't scheduled and can't be seen in Rdlogedit, and is
therefore not played in RDairplay.

Anyone else experienced this, or is it just me that's having a ghost in
my installation?

Thank you!

No, nothing suspicious from rdlogmanager in a Terminal. It's very friendly

it still gives me a surprise every day, with exactly one missing item it
forgets to schedule.

 If you run rdlogmanager from the terminal does anything show up?

Re: [RDD] Noise at the end of recording using RDCatch

2015-04-20 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Stan, our soundcard is a M Audio Delta 44. Looking forward to hear, if a
Audioscience card makes any difference

Robert, I've made an easy solution. Now I record one more second in the
end than I have to. Then I run the news also in AUX log 1, but one second
earlier. It then skips the other news file when it comes to the end, so we
don't hear the noise.
It looks ugly with all the macros and stuff, but it works

2015-04-20 8:31 GMT+02:00 Stan Fotinos sfoti...@rtrfm.com.au:

 I have had noise appear in the middle of recordings at random times and I
 am sure I have tried two different sound cards and two different PC's to
 see if that was the issue but the result was the same... I am using Delta
 66 cards and ALSA but I'll soon be replacing all these with Audioscience so
 I'll be able to see if the problem is in the cards or not and I'll post my
 results.

 Thanks

 Stan

Re: [RDD] Wait up to... doesn't skip items

2015-04-19 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Thank you.

That solved my problem (although it would be logic that wait up to
skipped items, and I really think I had it working this way on Friday..
Strange...)

2015-04-19 9:49 GMT+02:00 Peter van Embden twit...@moqua.nl:

  Hi Morten,

 I tackled this problem with this solution:
 Place a macro-cart with play next command at XX:59:48 and set it to
 make next. Then make the NEWS cart a hard start at XX:00:55 (like you
 already have). This way the news will always start at XX:00:55, but will
 start earlier if item reaches the end (because play next overrules hard
 start).

Re: [RDD] Noise at the end of recording using RDCatch

2015-04-16 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

I did what you mentioned when we played the news-file at a the same time
every hour. But I got tired of cutting the song at the top of the hour.

But now we play the news-file when the currently playing song finishes. So
the only way RDairplay knows when to skip to the next item, is when there's
simply no more audio in the file, but now we got the noise at the end.


2015-04-16 5:58 GMT+02:00 Stan Fotinos sfoti...@rtrfm.com.au:

 Hi Morten

 What if you create a macro that does a slow stop fade first eg. PS 1 1500
 then stops the recording and then starts a new item.

 Hope this helps

 Hi!

 At the top of the hour we record a live news feed with RDcatch.
 Ten seconds after we start broadcasting the file with the news, using
 RDairplay.

 The live news isn't a fixed length, so when the news broadcast is over
 after about 3 minutes, the speaker fires a Stop Record macro to RDcatch.

 RDairplay then skips to the next item in the log, but there's always an
 awfull noise at the end. I've tried recording in both wav and MP2.

 Found this old post with the same problem:

Re: [RDD] RDairplay crashes when you voicetrack

2015-04-05 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Thank you.

When I run free -m I get:
total used free sharedbuffers cached
Mem: 15930 15771158 0191 14927

So it still doesn't look good with the amount of free RAM.

If I run top again to see in MB what the processes are using:
2498 root 20 0 2033m 3264 1996 S 0.0 0.0 0:01.47
console-kit-dae

2217 mysql 20 0 1270m 47m 3544 S 0.0 0.3 149:09.77

Just a guess:
I don't know if this is normal to Rivendell or if I made a mistake, but
right now the MySQL database contains a log of everything I've played since
I started my station in 2013. Could I free up some resources by removing
some of that data?
(I only have seven logs, one for each day of the week, but Rivendell still
keeps a log of everything played)

2015-03-24 13:01 GMT+01:00 Wayne Merricks waynemerri...@thevoiceasia.com:

Hi,

Just be aware that used RAM by programs and used RAM by caching are two
separate things (programs take priority). Unfortunately top includes this
caching which makes it look like RAM is all gone when it isn't.

For example if I run top right now I get this (converted to GB for sanity):

KiB Mem: 8GB total, 6.9GB used, 1.1GB free, 0.7GB buffers

But if I run free -m (to get the output in MB):

total used free sharedbuffers cached
Mem: 7878 6731 1146811663 1869
-/+ buffers/cache: 4198 3679

As you can see in buffers/cache I'm using over 4GB of RAM but if you look
at the free bit I actually have over 3.5GB completely free to use by
whatever program.

I may be misremembering part of this but the important bit is free under
cache. Check out: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ for more info.

Hi,

Sounds like something might have a memory leak. You might want to see
which task / process is using up memory on your system.

The easiest way to see this in Top, if you hit M (that's a capital M)

It might give you an indication if the difficulty is something related

 and our jocks were trying the same thing, but the log would just skip
 over the voicetrack and keep going.  I brought the problem up to the
 manager and he asked why the jock wasn't doing it live, instead of
 voicetracking, since it would air after the element that was playing on
 the air.

 I didn't think of that option.

 Todd

 Hi.


 I've discovered this problem as long as I've used Rivendell, so I guess
 it's not a bug, but a feature that should be changed?


 It happens when you're voicetracking in RDlogedit, in the log currently
 playing in RDairplay: If you hit save so the log is refreshing at the
 same time RDairplay skips to the next item, RDairplay sometimes crashes.
 It's very difficult for new presenters to remember, that you can't hit
 save when 5 seconds or less remains of the currently playing item.

Re: [RDD] RDairplay crashes when you voicetrack

2015-03-18 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

If I promise we're only voicetracking, when the talent can't be in studio
at the time of broadcast, maybe somebody will give me a hint of the
stability of RDairplay (when voicetracking in the log currently running)

Thank you :-)

 Yes. Actually, what you are seeing as ? are accented e characters,

 And that is, of course, what I suspect : the inability, for Rivendell,
 to tell if these two artists are the same, or not.

 I think I'll just have to wish that the odds that it happens are not too

when it comes to this video playout, Rivendell does not contain any

basically instructs VLC or whatever you may set up to play the videos when
to play them.

That said, you can set up events, clocks, and grids and let rdlogmanager
make your logs and let rdairplay play the logs. It is not bad but there are
still some things I don't like and that I really need to work out a
solution or hack for before I will be happy.

2015-02-02 19:20 GMT+01:00 Wayne Merricks waynemerri...@thevoiceasia.com:

 Hi all,

 Slightly off topic but it relates to an offsite transmitter with silence
 fall back and probably Riv itself.

 The Raspberry Pi 2 has been released with 1GB RAM and a quad core Arm v7
 (as opposed to a single core Arm v6).  I played around with Riv on the
 original Pi, it was almost usable but very painful.

 It is very likely the Pi 2 will be a very capable little rdairplay box
 with built in GPIO (and you can even plug a decent USB card into it for
 sound now that it has 4 ports).

 Still the same price as the original too which isn't bad.

 Wayne

[RDD] Maybe a simple solution to remote voicetrack

2014-09-01 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

A lot of solutions have been discussed regarding remote voicetrack (Sharing
/var/snd via BitTorrent Sync, using a remote desktop and so on).
But maybe a simple solution would be changing a little button (at least it
would work for me)

When voicetracking in RdLogedit via ADSL, it takes forever to press the
green Start button and waiting for the end of the tune to play, because we
store our music in wav. The music is choppy, and I have to try a few times.
Recoring the voicetrack in MP2 128Kbps is no problem. Then it appeared to
me, that if there was no Import button, and I could just press Record right
away without listening to the music, it would go much faster on my slow
connection at home. I know how the music sounds, and I can visually adjust
the voicetrack without listening to the transition.

So for me, disabling the the Import function on my machine at home would
solve everything. Could it be possible to add that option in RdAdmin in the
next version?

Thank you!

Kind regards,

Morten

Re: [RDD] UTF-8 characters in RLM updates [WAS: more segfaults errors [solved]]

2014-05-25 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

I'm so embarrassed that I've waited so long to make the test, but I
couldn't compile the code that Fred uploaded to test with.

Now that the fix is included in an official update, here are my results:

Now you can create a title in RdLibrary with the Danish characters, and it
shows up correctly, so you don't have to edit it afterwards. And you can
search for the title with the characters in RdLibrary, but you can't search
for it in Airplay and Logedit. If you search for a different part of the
title, it shows up correctly though.

When you voicetrack it also shows up correctly.

The Danish characters doesn't work though when I create a text report, the
characters show up as questionmarks.

Otherwise this is a nice update!

 Mostly RDAirPlay’s RLM functionality.  Turns out that we have ‘issues’

 addressing in coming weeks), but the specific one being addressed here is
 particularly egregious in that it can cause RDAirPlay to crash.  Not good.

 Hi

 Have another problem with a timed event.

 I have a backtimer to the news, that start is set to xx:59:00 with a
 wait time of 45 seconds. That should prevent a song for playing out for
 only 10 seconds.

 Now i have seen, that a new song began to play at xx:59:30.! After 15
 seconds the backtimer began to play.
 As i understand that function, it should skip the next song and play the
 backtimer at xx:59:30 after waiting these 30 seconds, (max 45 sec.)

Re: [RDD] Voicetracking over a slow connection - what works best?

2014-03-02 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

I've tried option 1.
There's a 20/20 fiber connection in both the studio and at my home. At best
it works a little slow, but I can live with that. Some times the log gets
corrupted though.

We store our music in wav. It would work faster if you work with MP3. I
thought about using Bittorrent Sync for /var/snd but haven't done any
experimentation yet.


2014-02-28 16:17 GMT+01:00 Keith Thelen kthe...@kanabec.net:

 Hello all!

 I know there's no official remote voicetracking feature at this point. But
 from digging through past posts, I gather there's people out there who have
 managed to assemble something that accomplishes the same function, more or
 less.

 As I see it, there's at least two ways of doing this:

 1) Provide the person who will be voicetracking with a computer running
 Rivendell, let them connect over a VPN, tweak things to obtain acceptable
 results. (There seems to be a few ways in which people have done this...
 local copy of the library, a patch that reduces log writes, etc. What are
 the best techniques here?)

 2) Provide the person who will be voicetracking with a copy (printed,
 text, PDF, whatever) of the log in question, and receive a pile of
 individual voicetracks which must then be imported and placed. (This seems
 like an ugly solution, but on a technical level it's the simplest. Who, if
 anyone, is doing this? What tricks have you used to reduce the labor
 involved?)

 Any hints would be appreciated... don't want to reinvent the wheel if I can
 help it.

  ØCan I use silentjack to start RDAirplay automaticaly and how is this
  done?
 
  Sure, I do. Our main system uses the silence since on a broadcast
  tools 8.2 switch, but we have a backup that uses silentjack:
 
  I startup silentjack with a line like this:
 
  silentjack -q -c rivendell_0:playout_0L -n Silence_Alarm -p 5 -g 60
  silence_alarm
 
  So this assumes I'm listening to Rivendell_0:playout_0L as yours
  might be different, then it calls a script I wrote called
  silence_alarm.
 
  In silence_alarm is a lot of logic to sort through different issues
  that can cause silence on our station (such as problem Internet
  feeds), but here is the part that handles a crashed rdairplay:
 
  #!/bin/sh
 
  if ( ! ps -C rdairplay  /dev/null 21 ) ; then
 
  rdairplay 
 
  sleep 7
 
  echo LC BLACK Restarted: `date +'%b-%d %T'`'!'  /dev/shm/restart
 
  rmlsend --from-file=/dev/shm/restart
 
  sleep 15
 
  rmlsend PB\ 1!
 
  sleep 30
 
  fi
 
  Save this to a file somewhere like /usr/local/bin and mark is
  executable with chmod +x silence_alarm
 
  So what this does is checks to see if rdairplay is running, and if it
  isn't, it starts it. I also have it leaving a message about this in
  /dev/shm/restart (which is a ramdisk-like space on my Debian system,
  you may need to save it elsewhere), and then also sends it to the
  label area of rdairplay so that there is notice that this happened
  and when.
 
  Finally after the rdairplay gets running and its log automatically
  gets reloaded, it starts is playing again with the PB 1! command.

 All other things being equal, an excellent idea.  However, we already

  Unfortunately, radio automation (and industrial process control in
 general) is such an unusual beast that style books written for ‘office’
 tasks often have only limited relevance.

 My overall philosophy with regard to Rivendell’s UI has always been:

 1) Aim for absolute UI consistency across all of Rivendell’s modules while
 still providing an efficient and discoverable interface for getting the job
 at hand done, while:

 2) Maintaining as much consistency as possible to the larger ‘stylebook’
 standards of the underlying platform.

 We try to do both, but in the event of a conflict, 1) will always trump 2)
 (especially given the diversity of Linux window managers out there).  There
 are certain advantages to being an Apple and hence able to enforce One

Re: [RDD] Fwd: What reliable ALSA cards are you using?

cards are? Last time I've tried Echo I had no luck.


2014/1/6 Alessio Elmi alessio_e...@hotmail.com

 Echo as well could be an option. Something like Layla 24/96 (PCI) would
 really be deal (2nd hand, around 100€ or less in here).


 2014/1/6 Robert Jeffares jeffares.rob...@gmail.com

 I have M-Audio cards in 4 machines and a permanent search on ebay and the
 local trademe site.

 Thousands of these cards were sold to home recording enthusiasts who have
 moved on for various reasons, and they generally don't get a lot of
 attention so prices are low.

 They work with alsa, record and play, but you do have to remember to set
 44100 because they default to 48,000.


 M-Audio 2496 has RCA In and Out and needs an external boost by about 20DB
 and they work in high RF locations [ 3 AM Tx]

 The 44 have balanced out but still need 20db to follow.

 Well worth the effort.

 It seems to me there is a hole in the market for something more flexible

release? We're running some boxes with the Appliance CD where I can't patch
and compile myself.

Thank you.

 Hi.
 Voicetracking from a remote studio via ADSL is really slow, so does
 anybody know if this patch works with newer versions of Rivendell:

 Also, what should I do with the code? Append the text to the end of
 the file, replace it, or??

 Thank you.

 Kind regards,

[RDD] Suggestion for new RLM plugin

2013-07-14 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

In addition to the Icecast and Shoutcast RLM plugins, it would be nice
with a TuneIn plugin. I guess it would be simple to rewrite one of the
other plugins to work with TuneIn, as the command would be something
like wget 
http://air.radiotime.com/Playing.ashx?partnerId=ABCpartnerKey=DEFid=GHIartist=$ARTISTtitle=$TITEL;

Also RIvendell would be mentioned at
http://tunein.com/broadcasters/api/ and get even more attention :-)

 I can't take any of the credit for this, but...

 Log into the mysql prompt (or write a script and pipe this to mysql):

 SELECT COUNT(*) AS Plays, CART_NUMBER, TITLE, ARTIST FROM
 yourstationservicename_SRT WHERE STATION_NAME=playoutcomputername 
 ((CART_NUMBER =0 AND CART_NUMBER =75000) OR (CART_NUMBER =10 AND
 CART_NUMBER =30))  EVENT_DATETIME  2013-03-22 
 EVENT_DATETIME  2013-03-28 GROUP BY CART_NUMBER ORDER BY Plays DESC
 LIMIT 50;

 A quick explanation
 yourstationservicename = the name of the service that your station runs
 in Rivendell
 Station_name= the name of the computer which plays out using rdairplay.
 You may have to expand this if you have lots of machines operating the on
 air play
 Cart number: these are ranges which count towards the chart. Our
 jingles/beds etc... reside between 75000 and 10 so we don't count play
 of those.
 The dates are the chart date range
 We call up 50 items (Desc limit) as we have a top 40 and no doubt
 someone will have loaded in a bed/jingle as a music item! At least it helps
 us spot them.

 To make this work in a script:

 mysql -u yourmysqlusername -pyourmysqlpassword -h mysqlserveripaddress
 databasename

 e.g. mysql -u rduser -ppassword -h 192.168.1.100 Rivendell

I think that Rivendell only needs a few more features, before you can
use it for music scheduling too.

One thing that annoys me is this: I play one A-rotation per hour, and I
have five songs in the A-rotation category. I've set title separation to a
little less than five hours. This way Train, Bruises should be played at
0:30, 5:30, 10:30 and so on, on Monday, and on 1:30, 6:30 and 11:30 on
Tuesday. This is easy to get working on other systems, as long as you've
done the math. However in Rivendell, this only works for Monday, because on
Tuesday the same song is often played on the same time - Rivendell doesn't
calculate title separation over midnight (when changing log).

If this was changed, I wouldn't have to buy an external scheduler.

Can you record your voicetracks in MP2 to save bandwith?

 That looks impressive, how have you got this to work?

 In short
 RML commands through SSH tunnel, queries through php via

 Security via private keys and htaccess

 Still have more to do on GUI display of library, output from server
 Looks great but android destroys the column alignment,
 Still working on the voice track , right now it uses drop boxes but when
 it overwrites a file the no fade on sequence gets lost in dropbox, so going
 to have to redesign it to use rdimport so the sequence length can be set.
 Just wanted to get some feedback before I release it, like to have the you

 Trying to get it finished before the end of next week so it can be my

 I'm sure it will like all apps a continual work in progress.

 In RDLibrary the tick boxes ‘show audio carts’ ‘show macro carts’ ‘show note

 Could some default behaviour settings be included in the RDAdmin  Manage

 This would save me (an I’m sure others) from having to unselect certain tick
 boxes each time I start the RDLibrary module.

Re: [RDD] Multicut rotation clarification question - and a similar problem/question

Try to increase Title separation. Won't it force the scheduler to pick
some of the older songs?

Kind regards,

Morten

2013/2/21 Alan Smith alansm...@flinn.com:
 There might be a better way, but after sleeping on it, why not create a new
 scheduler code called NewGospel, and on your clock have it pick mostly
 Gospel songs, but every once in a while pick a NewGospel song.  Since it
 won't even out the play count its not a perfect solution, but will get the
 job done.

 On 2/20/2013 7:41 PM, James Laurence wrote:

 I have a similar problem, which could also be a bug, or possibly a settings
 anomaly.

 Let's say I have a music genre/group called 'Gospel', which contains 1500
 songs. They are tagged accordingly with scheduler-codes, and get picked by
 the log-generator in the normal way.  Fine.

 Now I add another 500 'new' songs to that genre, and tag them with codes
 accordingly.  I now have 2000 songs in total, all of which I obviously want
 to be available for selection by the log-generator.  (All songs are using
 the default weight of 1).

 !!**Problem**!!  The log-generator seizes on the 'new' 500 songs and will
 only select from those.

 The only possible reason I've come up with for this, is that Rivendell is
 trying to even out the 'Number-of-Plays' count.  Presumably it's seeing a
 Count of 0 in my 'new' songs, and a count of (for example) 300 in my 'old'
 songs and thinks it needs to give the 'new' ones some airplay.  And that's
 fine, but I still want the 'old' ones in the mix as well!

 Is there a practical work-around for this?  Or is there a setting I need to
 adjust somewhere, to force a more logical pick?

 Or possibly I'm on the wrong track altogether, and the cause is something
 else entirely.

 If anyone else has/had this problem and can suggest anything, I'll become a
 lot happier.

 Many thanks, hope someone can help.

I've used the instructions on the Wiki to generate a report, but I

Hi again...

I've managed to get the mixer playing via USB when setting Rivendell
to 48KHz. There's a lot of noise and crackling in the sound though :-(

This still puzzles me, as a Linux Mint box works okay with this mixer,
so it should be related to the driver/kernel on my box running the
Broadcast CD. But why is the Soundcard detection then able to play the
test sounds fine?

Maybe this output can make someone guide me in the right direction:

 Are you using a USB2 port or USB1?

 Looks like the external card only supports 48kHz which is standard for
 broadcast applications, so no issue there, but that sounds like you've
 got a saturated USB bus.

[RDD] Rivendell and Allen Heath XB14

2012-12-19 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.

I got my new Allen  Heath XB14 with USB input working straight away
on a Linux Mint box, where I compiled Rivendell myself. But I can't
get it to work on the machine for my main studio, which runs the
Broadcast CD (upgraded to latest version of Rivendell). When I go into
Audio resources the USB card is not present.

Output of lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 08bb:2900 Texas Instruments Japan PCM2900 Audio Codec

Output of /proc/asound/cards:

  Terratec PHASE 28 at 0xd080, irq 121

Output of /etc/asound.conf:

# *** End of Rivendell configuration generated by rdalsaconfig(1) ***


BTW: Administration- Soundcard Detection is able to play sound via USB.

Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

Yes rdalsaconfig can see it as Burr-Brown from TI USB Audio codec.
I've selected the USB codec as the only active card and saved the
configuration.

Maybe the problem is the old 2.6 kernal on the Broadcast CD?

Kind regards,

Morten

 Can rdalsaconfig see the card? You'll need to add it there before
 Rivendell will see it in-app. That asound.conf looks unpleasingly
 default to my (untrained) eyes.

 The world still needs a good free Open Source music scheduler. Goodness knows 
 I could use one.

Why not make Rivendells own scheduling more advanced and useful? Then
Rivendell really would start to compete with the large players.

 Hi,

 You can run multiple rotters on different jack ports.  The standard set up
 is something like:

 ROTFORMAT=mp3 #Encoding format
 ROTBITRATE=192 #Bit rate
 ROTCHANNELS=2 #2 = Stereo
 JACKNAME=rotter1
 ROTDELETEHOURS=2400 #Delete audio after x hours (2400 = 100 days)
 ROTBUFFER=10 #Rotter internal buffer, increase if you have problems
 ROTDIRSTRUCTURE=dailydir #Organisation format man rotter for more info
 LEFTJACKINPUT=system:capture_1 #Left Channel for rotter to connect to in
 the format of client:port
 RIGHTJACKINPUT=system:capture_2 #Right Channel for rotter
 ROTAUDIODIR=/var/audio #Directory to store audio

 rotter -f $ROTFORMAT -b $ROTBITRATE -c $ROTCHANNELS -n $JACKNAME -d
 $ROTDELETEHOURS -R $ROTBUFFER -L $ROTDIRSTRUCTURE -v -l $LEFTJACKINPUT -r
 $RIGHTJACKINPUT $ROTAUDIODIR

 Obviously if you're running two change JACKNAME, [L  R]JACKINPUT and
 ROTAUDIODIR.

 Out of all the random software I've ever used rotter has been the only thing
 thats never crashed on me in over a year of use (liquidsoap is nearly at
 2months of uptime which is my next most reliable excluding riv of course).

 Hope this helps,

Re: [RDD] OT: Rotter question

2012-11-09 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

I've only missed two hours the last 12 months, so for me it isn't a
problem. And with Rotter I always have problems with combining two
hours, if I wanted to rebroadcast an interview: There's some kind of
small gap when Rotter starts a new hour. With the Wget-script this
doesn't happen.

But now there's two options (and probably more) to choose from, so
that's freedom :-)

Kind regards,

Morten

 Surely this results in hourly discontinuities? For compliance logging
 something like rotter (which constantly records with a ringbuffer and
 is sample-level continuous in its output for WAV etc) is much better
 suited to the task. Not sure why you wouldn't use it!

 minutes?

 I've been reading a little on the Wiki, and something puzzles me.
 Under Documentation -- User Guides, one article says songs (I'm guessing
 meaning items before rescheduling cart), and the other says minutes.

 I know a few Rivendellers have used the earlier (beta) versions of
 OpenOB in the past so here's a quick notice to all that OpenOB 2.3 is
 out, with stable support for the Opus codec recently standarized by the
 IETF, which supports bitrates as low as 16kbps or up to 384kbps with a
 variety of audio bandwidths.

 OpenOB is the open outside broadcast tool, an audio over IP link tool
 which makes moving audio over a network in realtime with very low
 latencies (10ms in PCM mode, 50ms in Opus mode) fairly trivial.

 Other improvements include proper Python packaging for easy
 installation, reliability improvements, visual feedback changes and an
 improved command line interface.

 Support for the Raspberry Pi single-board computer has now been tested,

 sound cards. This means you can put a link together (both ends) for
 under £200.

I don't think my problems have anything to do with jack. I uncommented
the jack part in rd.conf and I still have the same problems.

I'm using Riv 2.1.5. It's a fresh install from the Broadcast CD and
Riv. is updated from the repository.

I have compared permissions with a fresh Broadcast CD, and everything
looks ok. User logged in is RD. /var/snd is owned by rivendell for
both user and group. Permissions: 40770

Maybe it's an Apache thing? Any guidance for where to look?

 It can be any number of things, ranging from misconfiguration to Apache

 the last of these that is the culprit.

 However, I'm not at all clear what precise setup is being used here -- it's 
 sounding like a v1.x system from some of the symptoms being described.  Pray 
 tell us what CentOS and Rivendell versions are in play here, along with how 
 you installed them (source, RPM).

 Hi!

 I have ripped a large CD collection to FLAC. But what's the easiest
 way to get Rivendell to support FLAC on the Broadcast Appliance CD?
 Installing the FLAC-devel package didn't help much, and I guess I
 can't compile Rivendell myself with FLAC-support, when it's already
 installed from the Paravel repo.

 Thank you!

 Kind regards,

[RDD] Problems with Rsync

2012-07-31 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Hi.
I've installed the Paravel Broadcast CD on a PC which operates as a
file-server and MySQL server for my Rivendell setup. I need two client
machines to be able to voice-track. Since they're far far away, I
thought of keeping a local backup of /var/snd on both client machines.
I tried mounting the folder via NFS, but it was to slow to work with,
I tried with a small Rsync-script which should run on the client. The
thought was that it should run in a loop, so it always get new music
from the server, and in the same time uploads voice-tracks to the
file-server.
However I get all kind of errors: Missing files on both sides, message
showing No energy data in 'Edit markers' and so on.
What should be the right approach to this?

Thank you!

Kind regards,
Morten

My small script:

#!/bin/sh
while true ;
do
#from server to client
rsync -avz -e ssh root@10.0.0.2:/var/snd /var
#from client to server

Re: [RDD] Problems with Rsync

2012-07-31 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

When I discovered incomplete files on the client-pc, I was just
importing a file or two on the server via RDlibrary - nothing fancy
being done there. I guess I could add a sleep command to my script,
but eventually I would be unlucky that Rsync on the client would
conflict with some file operation on the server.
Maybe Rsync isn't the way to go? What are other people using for
syncing /var/snd between computers?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Morten

 Practically, I don't think it makes sense to do this continuously.  A sleep 
 between runs of at least 5 seconds, will unload your machine so that it can 
 do other things, otherwise it will be quite busy starting and stopping these 
 processes.

 I'll let others talk about the specifics of Rivendell, as I'm still getting 
 up to speed on what interactions are between the parts of the system.  But, 
 overall, if you are dropping files into the server with simple file copies, 
 with, potentially incomplete files existing on the server, at the time that 
 rsync runs, then it can create incomplete files on the client.

 When I want to have filesystem synchronization like this going on, I 
 sometimes do things like copy to a different directory, on the same 
 filesystem, and then use ssh back to the server, and move (mv) all the new 
 files into the correct directory.  Then, they will be complete, because a 
 mv on the same file system will be a link and unlink, instead of a copy and 
 remove.

 Are you populating the server directory with simple file copy/creation 
 operations which can cause incomplete files to be visible to the rsync?

Thanks for your suggestions.
I will try out GlusterFS or Csync. Someone wrote about Csync on this
list a couple of months ago, so it has been used with Rivendell. A
shame it isn't in the Centos repo.

2012/7/31 Wayne Merricks waynemerri...@thevoiceasia.com:
 Hi,

 I assume you've got both PCs hooked up to the same database? Otherwise
 you would get all sorts of weird stuff going on.

 Anyway heres the second problem you will have, rsync is only one way (it
 gets really complicated if you're trying for a two way sync and has all
 sorts of problems as you've seen).  This will cause you issues when the
 remote voice track gets completed as it will automatically go into the
 local /var/snd and will need to be copied back to the server /var/snd.
 But what if the remote rsync starts sending a file and the local rsync
 kicks in on just the small chunk of a file.   All of a sudden you have
 all sorts of weird overwriting problems and race conditions.

 A step up from rsync is csync which is what own cloud uses (basically
 two way version of rsync).  It seems to work but I've never used it for
 Riv (just in testing out own cloud).

  From the client side point of view (e.g. rdlibrary) the database entry
 will be in place long before the sound files are copied around so you'll
 see lots of errors as the sound doesn't actually exist yet until
 rsync/csync finishes.

 GlusterFS is an option as James pointed out but its a bit complicated to
 get going from what I remember.

Re: [RDD] Problems with Rsync

2012-07-31 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Robert, I forgot to tell, that though the client machines are
connected through the open internet, they are connected to the local
network of the Rivendell server via VPN. So I thought that the clients
could be connected direct to the server MySQL without any problems?
It's only /var/snd that needs to be cached/synced because of the slow
network speed.

Kind regards,

Morten

2012/7/31 Robert Jeffares jeffares.rob...@gmail.com:
 Morten
 It's easy enough to rsync the /var/snd from one RD system to another but
 you also have to copy the MySQL database which contains all the data
 other then audio.

 If someone creates voice tracks on the remote system, you then need to
 reverse the process and update the local system both /var/snd and MySQL

 Like a train network there may be some need for signalling to avoid a
 wreck.

 If everyone is on the same network I would not bother, just have the
 remote boxes use the server audio and mysql.

 If the remote locations are at a distance there's a fair bit of traffic
 involved but it can be done.

 Unfortunately, this patch is against 'configure', which is a derived file

 exist there.  I suspect that the real underlying issue is in 'acinclude.m4'.

 On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce 
 the availability of Rivendell v2.1.5.  Rivendell is a full-featured radio 
 automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It 
 is available under the GNU General Public License.

 From the NEWS file:
 *** snip snip ***
 Changes:
This is a maintenance release of Rivendell.  Some of the issues
addressed include:

New Rivendell Loadable Module.  An 'rlm_filewrite' RLM has been added
that can be used to write PAD data to filesystems.

NexGen Import Filter.  An filter for importing audio from a Prophet
NexGen system has been added.

New RML.  A 'Label Panel' ['PC'] RML has been added that allows
the text and color of SoundPanel buttons to be changed programmatically.

Multiple System Selector.  An 'RDSelect' utility has been added to

Re: [RDD] Rivendell accross multiple monitors

2012-05-10 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

 I am experimenting with this for v3.x right now.  One item that is already on 
 the roadmap is a voicetracker for the right-hand side, since we now have the 
 required real estate.

That sounds really nice :-)

 What are some other useful things we could do with that extra real estate?

One thing could be graphics showing the waveform for the current
playing song with small indications of segue, talk-time and so on.
This way, the host quickly gets an idea of how the track ends.

I try this on a test computer, have install all the libqt4 available,
search on the web some explanation and try a lot of things but don't
find any solution. :-(

As of about a week ago, the Qt4 port was merged into Head, so builds from
Head will now require Qt4. See the 'INSTALL' file for details. If you're
looking for CVS for the 'stable' 2.x series (which still uses Qt3), check out
the 'v2_branch'.

The move to Qt4 has been an intensive effort underway for the last few
months. The code currently in Head is nearly, but not quite, fully
stabilized --i.e. *don't* use it on-air yet! Once it is fully stabilized, I
plan to release an alpha snapshot so the community can begin testing.

As for your build problems, it'd be hard to say what is going on. Qt4 is a
completely different animal from Qt3. In many ways, its build system works
much more like 'standard' FOSS libraries, without the need for a special
environmental variable ($QTDIR) and script to find all of the components as
is the case with Qt3. However, my experience has been that distros vary
widely in how they package it. Some (e.g. SuSE) 'just work', whereas others
(CentOS/RedHat, Ubuntu) still place things in non-standard locations that
require that various environmental variables be set before invoking
'configure' so that the components (headers and libraries) get found. I've
started a list in 'INSTALL' for these, broken down by distro. If you have
found the way to make it build on distro X, please let me know and I will add
it to the list.

Cheers!

 Hi,

 While I have not tried this in Virtualbox, it sounds like an issue I ran
 into with an Intel sound chipset on Ubuntu running on a real computer -
 actual hardware.

 Have a look at the solution I eventually found and see if it works for
 you:

 http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/pipermail/rivendell-dev/2011-May/012139.html

 The quick explanation, some sound cards using ALSA don't seem to get the
 correct sample rate when caed starts, and caed segfaults.  When I
 specified the sample rate in your /etc/asound.conf it fixed the problem
 for me.  Note that you have to set the sample rate in your asound.conf
 to the same sample rate as you've set in rdadmin or else you'll get
 strange playback results.  As an example

 pcm.rd0 {
  type hw
  card 0
  rate 48000
 }
 ctl.rd0 {
  type hw
  card 0
  rate 48000
 }

 Hope this helps.

Re: [RDD] Question about the music scheduler

2012-02-27 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Thanks for your help, I really want to do this right.

I created a new Group - B rotation for my test:
http://imgur.com/MYcTr
None of these songs have scheduler codes, and they all have exactly
four plays, before starting this experiment.
Then I created the event:
http://imgur.com/mfsU4
Then I created an hour of music:
http://imgur.com/nXV2Y
I assigned this hour to all of Monday and Tuesday and generated a log
for those two days.
Then I guess that each song should be played the same amount of times,
and that the song played on 00:00 at Monday, should be played at 01:00
on Tuesday. However that didn't happen. Heres the result:

Moony: 2 plays on Monday, 4 plays on Tuesday = 6 plays for the two days
Soulmagic: 6 Monday, 4 Tuesday = 10
Missy Elliot: 5 Monday, 7 Tuesday = 12
Room 5: 7 Monday, 4 Tuesday = 12
Manijama feat. Mukupa: 4 Monday, 5 Tuesday = 9

The song with most plays, is played twice as many times as the least
played song. Also they are played rather random.
Here's the log for Monday:
http://textsnip.com/3ed468
And Tuesday:
http://textsnip.com/589435

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Morten

2012/2/26 Robert Jeffares jeffares.rob...@gmail.com:
 You are using one GROUP = MUSIC

 Make a New Second GROUP [rdadmin  Manage Groups]

 Call it AROTATE

 Put the 5 CARTS in the AROTATE GROUP [Use RDLibrary and EDIT]

 Make a new EVENT [RDLog Manager Top Option]

 Call it Play an A Rotate and have it select a Cart from the AROTATE group

 Then replace the MUSIC Event at :32 in the CLOCK you are using with
 the new event.

 Put the clocks in for a day or 2 or 3 or 5  and create a LOG

 Then run the log.

 If you have all the tracks in MUSIC and are using Scheduler Codes to
 pick selections you wont get the result you want [ as you have found]

 You have got the 5 songs on separate CARTS. If they are all on one
 cart the play will be random. Over time they even out.

 I am not in the right place to send you the screenshots that go with
 this. You should be able to find your way there.

 While the scheduler code feature is great for setting dayparts, genre,
 tempo, and all the other flags you ever need on a title, the GROUPS
 are the first way to distinguish songs for airplay.

 RD will break or ignore scheduler codes.

 The GROUP is carved in stone.

 Hope this helps

Re: [RDD] Question about the music scheduler

2012-02-27 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Ok. What you're saying, and what I've learned, is that my B-rotation
is placed rather randomly. After 7 days, all songs should be played
the same number of times, but it's not desirable that the song
Soulmagic is played at 1AM, 2AM, 3AM, 4 AM and 5 PM on Monday, when
there should be five hours between playing the song.

So if I want to control how often my B rotation is played (and I want
to, on a commercial Hot AC station), I have to enter something in
Title Separation. In my case it should be about 75 songs/carts. The
next problem is, that this number is not the same in the daytime as at
night (more sweepers, jingles, news, whatever in the daytime).

Question: Would it be possible to enter how many minutes should
separate each title, instead of how many carts? It would be much
easier to enter 300 minutes.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Morten

 Hi,

 Forgive me as I'm joining this discussion without re-reading all the previous 
 material.  I think Riv is working as intended but obviously not how you 
 perceive it should work.

 The only rule I can see on your event is Must have title separation of 1.  
 So we can't play the same song twice in a row.

 Anyway this is my understanding of the scheduler (so it may not be correct):

 1. Riv comes along and sees the B Rot event.
 2. Riv looks into the B Rot Group for valid songs.
 3. Riv checks to see if a song has played previous to the event and prunes 
 the list (if necessary)
 4. Riv looks at the weights of all the songs (usually 1 by default) and 
 assigns a percentage chance to it.
 5. Riv spins the dice for a number between 1 and 5 as each song has the 
 same probability of happening (by default).

 This is why you're getting your uneven plays.  Its the same reason why if you 
 flip a coin twice you're just as likely to get heads twice than a neat 1 
 heads, 1 tails.

 Now heres where I'm fuzzy on the scheduler.  I seem to recall some sort of, 
 for want of a better phrase, wear leveling algorithm which would favour songs 
 with lower number of play outs if all other things were equal 
 (codes/rules/weights) but I have no idea how this works (or if I just dreamed 
 this up).

 If its sensible (which all the Riv stuff I've looked into generally is), it 
 probably just uses the cart weight and the number of play outs to assign a 
 new percentage chance to it and then spins the dice based on this modified 
 value.  As such you could be really unlucky and get wildly varying plays in a 
 short time period but in the long run it should be an insignificant 
 difference (unless you really are unlucky in which case buy a lottery ticket).

 Please feel free to call me an idiot as this is my best guess based on things 
 I've noticed and vaguely remember reading.

 Regards,

 Wayne

 Subject: Re: [RDD] Question about the music scheduler

 Thanks for your help, I really want to do this right.

 I created a new Group - B rotation for my test:

 None of these songs have scheduler codes, and they all have exactly
 four plays, before starting this experiment.
 Then I created the event:
 http://imgur.com/mfsU4
 Then I created an hour of music:
 http://imgur.com/nXV2Y
 I assigned this hour to all of Monday and Tuesday and generated a log
 for those two days.
 Then I guess that each song should be played the same amount of times,
 and that the song played on 00:00 at Monday, should be played at 01:00
 on Tuesday. However that didn't happen. Heres the result:

 Moony: 2 plays on Monday, 4 plays on Tuesday = 6 plays for the two days
 Soulmagic: 6 Monday, 4 Tuesday = 10
 Missy Elliot: 5 Monday, 7 Tuesday = 12
 Room 5: 7 Monday, 4 Tuesday = 12
 Manijama feat. Mukupa: 4 Monday, 5 Tuesday = 9

 The song with most plays, is played twice as many times as the least
 played song. Also they are played rather random.
 Here's the log for Monday:

 And Tuesday:

 What am I doing wrong?

 Thank you.

 Kind regards,

 2012/2/26 Robert Jeffares jeffares.rob...@gmail.com:
 You are using one GROUP = MUSIC

 Make a New Second GROUP [rdadmin  Manage Groups]

 Call it AROTATE

 Put the 5 CARTS in the AROTATE GROUP [Use RDLibrary and EDIT]

 Make a new EVENT [RDLog Manager Top Option]

 Call it Play an A Rotate and have it select a Cart from the AROTATE group

 Then replace the MUSIC Event at :32 in the CLOCK you are using with
 the new event.

 Put the clocks in for a day or 2 or 3 or 5  and create a LOG

 Then run the log.

 If you have all the tracks in MUSIC and are using Scheduler Codes to
 pick selections you wont get the result you want [ as you have found]

 You have got the 5 songs on separate CARTS. If they are all on one
 cart

Re: [RDD] Question about the music scheduler

2012-02-26 Thread Morten Krarup Nielsen

Thank you for getting back to me.

 If you start out with 5 tracks they will schedule evenly.

Ok, I tried to rip 5 new tracks from a CD, with 5 different artists
not represented in the other categories.
I assigned my hour with test music to 5 hours in the grid, so every
artist in A rotation should be played exactly one time. All my music
is in the Music category, and I use scheduler codes for A rotation, B
rotation, Oldies and so on. I have scheduled one A rotation every
hour.
However:
Missy Elliot was played 1 time
Room 5 was played 3 times
Moony was played  1 time
Mukupa was played 0 times
Soulmagic was played 0 times

How can that be?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Morten
