Subject: [RDD] RDCATCH 2.15.1 Export problem


Running Rivendell on Centos 7.  I just updated to version 2.15.1 yesterday. I 
really am only using RDCATCH to take care of a bunch of programs that we pull 
down. In any case I will have RDCATCH export the programs to a network share as 
a  PCM16, 44100KHZ mono WAV file.  For some reason now, Rivendell is exporting 
the files corrupt. I can read them in Audacity, but all my other applications 
throw an error message up. It is almost as if its missing its header.


I change the setting to PCM24, and it works. However the application that is 
pulling in the file reads it as a FLAC codec.


Anyone know a good place to start looking for a fix? RDCATCH doesn't generate 
an error as it doesn't check files that it exports.

What does the output of 'file ' produce?

A copy of its output might be helpful here.

Link to exported file, its too big to attach here

The file posted is from the output of the export when set to PCM16,44100 MONO

I can get Audacity to open this, but anything else like VLC will not work. I'm 
having a hard time determining whats missing that wasn't before

Where did the "Custom Encoders" button go in RDadmin? AudioResources does show 
PCM16, PCM24, OGG and FLAC as support exporters.
I believe something broke during the update but I need a little help to find 
out where to look in the system

Re: [RDD] RDCATCH 2.15.1 Export problem

2016-08-19 Thread Brett Patram
Just some updates from what I have tried so far:

Reinstalled LIBAO

Reinstalled LIBsamplerate


No change. Again I can export PCM16, various tools will verify it but its 
missing something and won't play like a normal .WAV PCM file would, thus my 
ingest machine fails on all the files now. This just started after I updated 
CENTOS and Rivendell packages through its Software Update tool.


And oddly enough, if I select PCM24 and export a cart, it actually reads as 
FLAC codec. If I select MPEG 2, it won't even write out the file, actually I 
should have a log message on that one at least


Very confused, what am I missing?

We have a known issue in v2.15.1 with WAV exports containing metadata opening 
as a ‘flat line' in Cool Edit Pro (fixed in git ‘stable’). However, in all of 
my testing, turning off ‘export metadata’ clears the problem.  I suspect that 
we can treat Adobe Audition as being essentially the same product in this 
context as it is a lineal descendant of CEP code-wise.

Cheers!

 Hasn't CEP been obsolete and out of support for more than a decade ?

 That's like, pre-Jurassic in computer years.

2016-09-16 Thread Lorne Tyndale

Yup, CoolEdit Pro has been out out of distribution for a long time. 
However there are still quite a few stations using it for a few reasons.

-It still works (at least on the 32 bit version of Windows 7 it works,
there are a few issues with running it on 64 bit Win7.  Never tried it
on 8 or 10), the license does not expire
-People know it
-It does most (if not all) of what many stations need for production use
-In many ways it is simpler to use then the latest version of Adobe
Audition (and since presumably the license would have been paid for
years ago, and Adobe has migrated to a monthly / annual license fee, its
cheaper then the latest Adobe product)

The above are why a lot of people are still running Adobe Audition
version 3.01 too.

Re: [RDD] RDCATCH 2.15.1 Export problem

2016-09-21 Thread Tom Van Gorkom
We just upgraded this weekend to Riv 2.15.1 on Centos 6.8. thinking the
export bug was fixed in the automatic updates. Now we have corrupted files
on export that will not burn to a CD for listener requests without first
running them through Audacity. It seems like files under 250 MB work fine
and over that become corrupted. I tested exporting without metadata and it
did not change the problem.

 I see that this was fixed in github but that is new to me. How do I find
what I am looking for and how do I use it?  It looks like I would need to
compile Riv from source code by components, true? Sorry for the dumb
questions.

Hmm.  The 250 MB size limit is new.  We had a known issue with metadata 
affecting certain versions of CoolEdit Pro and its descendants (which is the 
fix that is notated in GitHub), but this sounds like something different.

Off to do some tests…
