Re: [RDD] Qt3 vs. Qt4 [WAS: Rivendell-dev Digest, Vol 5, Issue 9]

2013-09-25 Thread Andy Sayler
At this point, even QT4 is 8 years old. If work was going to be invest to pull Rivendell off QT3, it would probably make sense to go straight to QT5. Maintaining QT3 support once it gets pulled from the standard repos for Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, etc is doable, but it does start to bring into quest

[RDD] Rivendell and satellite formats

2013-09-25 Thread Keith Thelen
Hello all! Is there anyone out there using Rivendell with a live satellite-based format - one in which the programming is delivered in real-time (not recorded and played back), and uses contact closures to trigger imaging, stopsets, etc? And, if you're one of those people, would you be willing

[RDD] Rdimport with Create-startdate-offset

[RDD] Great way to ruin your RD system

2013-09-25 Thread Alan Peterson
I have different iterations of Rivendell running on a couple of machines in my basement, including a really old 32-bit version on a clunkaroony 2004 Dell. This machine I dont take too seriously, so it ends up as a websurfing box among other roles. A few days ago, I stuck a Slax Live disc in the
