Re: [RDD] Feature Request: make the Scheduler codes mandatory in some groups
Hi A cool feature is the ability to associate a value with a scheduler code For example the code energy could have the values 1,2, or 3 (as in Powergold) or maybe an alphanumerical value like high, medium, low etc..

Re: [RDD] Feature Request: make the Scheduler codes mandatory in some groups
You can create a scheduler code called Unclassified and make it the default scheduler code for the new imported carts then you can use Rdlibrary to select all the carts with the Unclassified scheduler code and classify them. 2012/1/16 sf...@xs4all.nl I do not want to create a filename.sc when I do a mass-import of songs. I rather use RDLibrary to listen to the songs and classify it. So make it optional, not mandatory. A visual indication (color/marker) that a song does not have a schedule code would make this easier. On a side note: I would really like to be able to use the schedule-codes in RDLogedit (as a filter).

Re: [RDD] Feature Request: make the Scheduler codes mandatory, in some groups
Hi, Using the scheduler codes as a filter is now possible in RDLogEdit (and RDAirplay) as of Version 2.1.1. When you select to add a new cart within RDLogEdit, you now have a pull-down filter you can use to select a scheduler code. It works quite well and is a very welcomed feature (Thanks Fred!) On a side note: I would really like to be able to use the schedule-codes in RDLogedit (as a filter).
