cue-sheet support? - Airtime Development Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Hello,

is it possible to use a cue-sheet as source for the radio while also providing the listener with song information?

Or any other way to broadcast just one big audio file but providing individual song information?

Regards

Marc

Hi Marc,

The "reporting" in Airtime (as we call it) allows to track / report individual songs within a large file. It also allows the creation of custom fields - a feature that allows to expand the report to match specific criteria for specific requirements (e.g. a checkbox for "Canadian content"). You can read Naomi's blog post after the 2.5 release here:

I am sure I also saw a screencast somewhere, but I can't find it right now... If you find it, post it here :)

All the best, micz

Found it, here is the screencast for the Airtime 2.5 Play History:

Difficult to find, because it comes with virtually no description text. And this from a product which knows how valuable searchable metadata is... ;)

This is exclusively for history reports, right? Patching in metadata for a future or live show won't change titles and tracks in the listener's client app, correct?

Howdy, Stranger!
