[RDD] Unique cart title
Hello all, I'm working on the database of the station (in a few hours we will kill the virtual Windows machine running BSI Wavestation and switch entirely to Rivendell, including switches from non-stop to the different studio's), so I'm tagging the last songs songs. But some songs happen to have the same title, but different artist, i.e. It's My Life. Both Talk Talk and Dr. Alban have a song with that title, but because Dr. Alban was imported first, the cart of Talk Talk gets It's My Life [1]. Is there a way to give both carts the same title? We're running Rivendell 2.6.0, by the way.

Hi, You should just be able to change the title in rd library. I have quite a few songs with the same title and have never seen this [1] suffix before.

Re: [RDD] Unique cart title
Dear Peter, Check whether your database setting allows for Duplicate Cart Titles. It's a System setting. Start RDAdmin - click System Settings, and see if the check box Allow Duplicate Cart Titles is Checked. If it isn't checked, then the system cannot create new carts with the same Title, so as a work around it starts adding a number to the Titles it gets that match (sounds like that's what your system is doing). If you have it checked then it should not do that but allow the same titles to exist. Be Advised, if checked it WILL NOT let there be the same Titles, so changing the setting (from ON - allow duplicates - to OFF No Duplicates allowed) can cause the naming of titles with numbers appended convention to happen). I believe the system warns you if it recognizes Titles that match when you try to turn Duplicates Allowed Off, and if I recall gives you a chance to Fix them yourself.

Re: [RDD] Unique cart title
Thanks Todd, that did the trick! Also, 15 minutes ago we went LIVE with Rivendell. And it already sounds a lot better than the old system. You can listen at www.radiocapelle.nl if you like. When we started months ago, I had absolutely no knowledge about Linux and Rivendell at all and I must say: I LOVE IT!!! It has cost us a lot of time, but we learned a lot! And are still learning. And when the time is right, we will switch to our DR Axum. By that time I’ll start asking questions about faderstarts and A B channels. Cheers, Peter van Embden Radio Capelle The Netherlands.
