Announcement of time in playlist

[JeanXeb]

Hello,

I would like to know how you would do to solve my problem. I generate of playlists.

I am looking to put between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m., to announce every hour an announcement of the hour.

Command : run PlaylistGeneratorPro.exe "-preset=CR-WR-BASE-ROTATION 6H - 21H" "-out=C:\Program Files (x86)\RadioBOSS\Playlists\playlist_%nn.m3u8" -n=15 -s=6

I thought I had succeeded with a file as source ?hh for example :
\\MATIERES\ANNONCES HORAIRES - ?hh.wav

But the problem is that it puts in the m3u files only the time when the playlist is generated.

If you have a solution for me...

The %nn and other variables will have the time/date values when the event starts. Do you need it to work differently?

Maybe this solves your problem

Thank you for your answer the problem is that it must be integrated into the hourly playlists and not on the fly ...

You can also use file name templates (%hh and others) in the playlists as well.

Unfortunately no because it only injects the hour where the playlist is generated.
Playlist generate > 23h
00h > 01h > 02h > 03h > 04h > 05h ... = fileannonce23h in the playlists

Yes, the templates are processed when the playlist is created. A possible solution would be to use a separate scheduled event to insert the time announcement.

It is unfortunately not possible it does not always work well because there are a lot of transitions.

It should work, I don't see any reason for it not to. You can start the time announcement event couple of seconds before the playlist event to ensure it's positioned first.

Precisely it is not positioned first...
He only has 5 seconds to position himself but often the flash is already in playing.
Does radioboss 6.2 solve this problem ?

You can try it, but if you have two events, you can control which one will play first by adjusting its start time, and also set the queue options for the following event - enable "If there are scheduled tracks, enqueue" option.

Thanks I will try !

Is there any function to announce the date, ie month, day, year?

I think Patrick gave it to you above.

I see the time not the date announce.

I didn't use that as its didn't work from me I just set repeat 120 and t did it for me but does not record new countdown on when you press 'Run Now'

You can use the file name template in the Scheduler: https://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/scheduler_options.htm
It has variables for days (?dd) and others, you can create audio files for each day and make it select the appropriate file using a template. Another possibility is to use TTS: https://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/text-to-speech.htm (also using the file name templates).

Can the month and days be recorded with a voice and substituted like the time?

Yes, why not, there are different variables that you can use in different combinations.
