At present, that is hard-coded. It will eventually turn into a 
user-configurable option (in RDAdmin->ManageUsers/->RDAirPlay).

Cheers!

Hi Fred

Thank you for the update, look forward to testing. I have a simple

Thanks

Sorry I don't have a spare box here to put 4 on yet but working on it.



Instead of a single meter that displays the sum of all signals, there 
is a meter for each configured output port. Each meter can also be 
assigned a name, which then appears on each button that is sending 
audio to that channel. The idea is to allow a better sense of ‘what' 
is playing out ‘where’.


Cheers!

What are the main changes to the level meters?

Sorry I don't have a spare box here to put 4 on yet but working on it.

Cheers,

Gavin.

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to
announce the availability of the third public beta release of the next
major version of Rivendell, v4.0.0beta2. 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 ***
 Third beta release of Rivendell v4.x. Be sure to read the INSTALL
document, as major changes in software dependencies have occurred.

Major Changes Between v3.x and v4.x:
Qt Toolkit. Rivendell v4.x uses and is fully compatibile with major
version 5 of Qt (Qt5). See the INSTALL documents for specifics.

MySQL Compatibility. Rivendell v4.x aims for full compatibility with
MySQL 8.0 and earlier versions in their default installation
configurations.

RDAirPlay. The rdairplay(1) has been completely overhauled, and now
supports dynamic resizeability as well as a revamped level metering
system.

RDPanel. The rdpanel(1) now supports dynamic resizing.

Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 350, 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 ***

New installations of Rivendell v4.x can be generated using one of the 
following two online installers:


For RedHat/CentOS 7:
https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/CentOS/7rd4/ 



For UbuntuStudio 20.04 LTS “Focal Fossa”:
https://software.paravelsystems.com/howtos/ubuntu/focal/ 



If you have already installed a previous Rivendell v4.x beta, you can 
upgrade that installation to v4.0.0beta2 by means of the following 
commands:


For RedHat/CentOS 7:

sudo yum clean expire-cache
sudo yum update rivendell

For UbuntuStudio 20.04 LTS “Focal Fossa”:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade rivendell

Please feel free to spin up either environment and put the system 
through its paces. Please create an Issue report for any problems 
found at:


https://github.com/ElvishArtisan/rivendell/issues 



Be sure to mention both the version of Rivendell and distribution used.

Cheers!
