RadioBOSS 5.9 [beta]
- Thread starter djsoft
- Start date
It does extract the artist/title from the file name when there's no tag information in the file. It appears this is the case, given that "Update tags library" clears out all other fields like album, comment.pety said:
They used to be when you initially created the library, but now there are no tags for some reason. Can you please send one of the music tracks to support@djsoft.net to check?pety said:

Thanks - installed today.
The 'makelibrary' issue is present still although slightly different now. It looks like a filename with a space in it doesn't get processed properly. Easy enough for me to adjust my scripts not to include spaces, but thought I'd pass it on anyway.

Hello,
Great for the new AccuWeather support, thanks a lot
The API Key must be set in the Settings - Scheduler window
For the event, we formulate like usual. For example: weather Lisbon, PT
It works fine like this (but I need to restart RB to override the rate limitation, which should not occur when using our own key I guess. Rate limitation is only when using RB general API Key)
Precision is much better and we can run the event twice per hour for free.
Thank you
Nico

wget -qO- "http://newmaster:9000/?pass=xxxxx&cmd=makelibrary+%%22Footy+Themes.xml%%22+|+%%22C:\Music\Footy+Themes%%22"
wget is a command line application to visit webpages. The -qO- option deletes the 'downloaded' webpage - we're only interested in hitting the URL to trigger the API.
note the %%22 items in the command script for putting quotes around the filepath and XML path. These scripts were created in 2017.

Hi,
Good Update now, all the tools of the music library are put together in a single screen, unfortunately I noticed some problem on the BPM, despite the correct settings in some songs you no longer see the value, and the calculation function for some songs not works, if you use track editor for the same it marks -1, incorrect value.
In the photo you see I have used the BPM tool many times, but do not update the results.
In the second song from the top where written -1 this was possible with single track editor but the obtained value is not correct.

I guess you're right, we'll remove the limitation when using non-default key.nicotrak said:
The command in fact has an error, that it contains spaces (encoded as "+") around the pipe ("|") characters. In the next version we'll make the command ignore such spaces, so you don't have to fix the command. It used to ignore them in the past, before we updated the parser to allow new parameters.southernfm said:
The BPM algo was updated and now it depects more songs correctly (we compared it with Spotify database). Hpwever for some songs it's unable to detect BPM for some reason, in this case it will show -1, and scanning it again will not change that. We'll fine tune it in the next update to reduce the number of "-1" results (most likely it will become a bit slower).Marco Nicolosi said:
It never worked properly, and fixing it didn't really work, so it was removed. Did you use this option?nelson c said:
Yes, all RadioBOSS air is muted when the relay is active. We'll add an option for events to allow them being played over the relay.nelson c said:
I tried this option in testing (not in production), it seemed to work well.djsoft said:
I have several stations linked by IP, using RB with streaming redundancy. (Using the API), I am looking at how this feature evolves so that in the future it may be used in transmission sites that do not require redundancy.
I think that at some point this feature should be incorporated. It makes transitions sound much more professional and helps with some problems such as packet loss: While today it is strange and less and less frequent can happen.
RadioBOSS, would be continuously alternating between local and remote reproduction, with a disastrous result.
On the other hand, if you wait for the current track to return to streaming, the result would be much less transitions.
