several issues

There will be new API commands introduced in RadioBOSS designed for a song request system. Planned for RB 5.1.1, end of June.
 
Hi Dmitry, thanks for the API, it will be great!. :)

I have another request.
Daily I am downloading Zip files with MP3 radio programs.
The files have a nomeclatura:
http://www.mkradio.com.ar/mbxXA14/MB140520.zip (two digit year-month-day)

These files are only available at the beginning of the day so I can not download all of a week and then automate it.
Would need a new command, something like "Download and extract" where radioboss when an event is executed, would have to download the files and extract them to a folder.
This would be fantastic as it could automate everything without resorting to external programs and also with the reassurance that if a problem occurs in the download, I will be notified by email.
 
You can download and save a file using the download command in RadioBOSS.

The problem is dynamic filename
Code:
MB140520.zip (two digit year-month-day)
. RadioBOSS macro can only make 4-digit year (?yyyy), while you need only two digits. To fix this, you can create a script on your web site which will redirect to the correct link and use this script with download command.

To extract it, you can use the .bat file and call it from within RadioBOSS's scheduler.

Starting with RadioBOSS 5.1 you can assign multiple actions to the scheduled event. Your event to download and extract this file will have two commands:
Code:
download http://example.com/your-redirect-script.php C:\file.zip
run C:\my_extract.bat

http://example.com/your-redirect-script.php - this is your script which will redirect you to the correct file.
C:\my_extract.bat - the bat file which will extract the file.zip archive.

You can add third command to play the extracted file.
 
Thank you for your support.
but I found a bug in radioboss.
When multiple actions are used in an event.
Radioboss insert all commands to the playlist. as if it were a song
 
also the songs that are in the queue are deleted reproduction.

Event Actions:
1-Download http://fmradiomusic.com.ar/Varios/Macro/index.php?P=?dd&url=http://www.mkradio.com.ar/mbxXA14/MB%aniocorto%mes%dia.zip M:\Mi musica\Archivos Radio\Descargas Programas\MusicBox\MusicBox.zip
2-run D:\Mis Documentos\Mis documentos Nelson\Proyectos\Programacion\Autoit\Automatizador 2014\Renombrar y mover MusicBox.exe (extracting file)
 
Make sure you don't have the "Clear palylist" and "Remove previous schedule" options enabled in the event.
 
The problem tracks are removed from the queue was what you was saying.
But the main problem is occurring:
Commands are added to the list as songs.

Yes, this is how multiple commands feature works for now.
 
Ok, I understand.
One more thing, (by sending the first post), the second action (extract the zip), wait till it finishes downloading to run?

I'm sorry but it does not. What is the point of zipping an mp3 file by the way? mp3 files do not compress, so you may try asking web site owner to provide a link directly for an mp3 file.

I agree with you, loose mp3 files would be much better.
But despite that I have said to the producers, I do not pay attention, (even being paid services!).
They argue that a comprehensive program is low in a single file, which is simpler for most users, and that two types of discharge would be more complicated for them.

Furthermore although use classifications (day, month, year) is not designed to be automated. his idea is that the operator having to download programs weekly (or even some daily), extract them and move them to the desired path.
 
two petitions that would be useful:
1-Set and Keep BPM visualization editor (This would allow to create perfect mixes) would also be interesting to show the intro songs in the waveform editor is so that when voice tracks are used, adjust it easier tracks manually.

2 - On the panel of searches as well as "PlayCount" He added it would be great to add Last Playback so you can search eg more track time is not emitted ago.

Thanks for the ideas - they will be considered in the future.
 
Hi I am having problems running this command:
Download http://fmradiomusic.com.ar/Varios/Macro/index.php?P=?dd&url=http://User:Pass@loqueraye.com/lqr/LQR%20/LQR%20SOFT%20%diasemcorto%20001.mp3 M:\Mi musica\Archivos Radio\Programas\Lo Que Raye Soft\LQR Soft 1.mp3

In chrome works perfectly

is a php script that redirects:
http://User:Pass@loqueraye.com/lqr/LQR%20/LQR%20SOFT%20mier%20001.mp3

putting this link directly to the download command does not work.

internet explorer is not able to open either link.
 
If IE can't open this link, I'm afraid RadioBOSS will be unable either... I'll add it as a bug, may be it will be fixed in the future.
 
Hi, in a previous post (can not find the link), I reported the following problem:
I have two pc with RB a generated list and Broadcast PC.
Both work through a shared network drive.
Sometimes when a pc, one of the two pc does not access the network restarts. and the network is down.
the solution is to manually access computer-> network path.
Ahi network reconnects and radioboss can work properly.

You answer me it was a problem unrelated to RB, so I assumed it was something with my network.

Yesterday, consult a network technician and told me that the problem is in the way RadioBOSS access network files.
 
Hello, in the next version would be great if they would show format in 24 Hs time "Last played"
Because today, for example in a song that says "Played 12/06/2014 11:01:02"
It is not known whether it was morning or night.

Did he give you any specifics? RB accesses the files using standard Windows functions like CreateFile etc, there's nothing special about it...

It shows the time using the system time format - so if your system time format is 12 hour, then you should see AM or PM somewhere...
 
did not give me any details, your explicacionn was as follows:
If from "Computer" you can access the network. and the application can not, then the problem is how the application is to network locations.

Regarding "Last Played":
Surely there is a text that says "PM or AM" because you can see as a text editing metadata panel, but does not enter screen.
On the other hand, surely there is a bug here. Active "Force 24 hour clock" and while the clock was modified RB, was not it the "last reproduction" panel.
Please see the screen shot attached

Please try updating to the latest version 5.1.0.7 - the screenshot is from older beta version 5.1.0.2, IIRC there was a bugfix regarding this.
