My simple solution is that on cuts that are day and time specific, we dont'
use day parting, we set a cut start and cut end date and time. (ex Monday
October 17 0600 to Tuesday October 18 1800)
If it's a cut that isn't day specfic but time specific like the sponsored
intro for a weather forecast,
Well, I am definitely not a code expert, but I could see a danger if
you crossed midnight and wanted it to play Monday night 11:00pm to
Tuesday morning at 5:00am and checked Monday and Tuesday. It might

I don't think it's adviable to define a daypart that crosses midnight,
precisely because of the potential confusion it might cause to users with
regard to the date. I recently had a client specify that a program was
to air "10 PM - 3AM Sunday through Thursday", which is ambiguous, since 3
AM
For me the big question with having the over-12am daypart to work
without creating 2 cuts is the question of what happens if you are
dayparting a cut to specific days of the week, and how that would change
the current operation of the software.
Let's say that I have Cut A, and I want it to only be

Further clarification on this. After additional experimenting, the
dayparting dialog will successfully accept 00:00:00 (Midnight) as the
start time, but will not accept that as the end time. So to get a cart
to play in the non-safe-harbor hours, requires 2 cuts, one dayparted
from 22:00:00 unti
Fred,
Just curious, any idea on when this new release might be coming down the
pike? Also, any big departures from the current model of Rivendell? Is this
3.0? Thanks for indulging my curiosity!

Hi Chuck
I think I found that the active part can't pass the time of midnight. copy
the audio to a second cut within the same cart. Make one cart play from
22.00 - 23.59 and the other cut from 0.00 - 6.00.
It should then work as expected.
Many thanks

Hi,
Lets say we have one cart full of comedy tracks (cuts).
I'll set Tracks 1 - 10 to play between 4am and 9pm and our riskier post
watershed tracks 11 - 20 for 9pm - 4am.
All day in the clocks I have my comedy event that picks this specific cart.
When you schedule, the cart will be picked e
We have not used dayparting, but want to start, so we can air some
comedy tracks that would not stand the test of safe-harbor hours.
However, when I enable dayparting and enter a start time of 22:00 and
end of 06:00, those tracks will not play between 22:00 and midnight, nor
after midnight. Rive

You need the cut in there twice, one set to 21:00-2359 and one set 00:00
to 17:59
which is a pain.

The daypart times can't pass midnight.
What I would do is duplicate the cut inside the cart.
Its very easy hit the copy button inside the cart ... then hit the Add
button and then Paste button to paste the cut into the new cut
position.

It happened to me something similar (with days instead of hours).
The logmanager schedules the not-playable cart. It shows in red, and
it's skipped when put on air. Maybe it's me...
