  • We don't have any mechanism for a pause between clips at the moment.
    The simplest, if not very elegant, solution would be to set the relative
    offset of clip_N+1 to
    relativeOffset(clip_N) + playlength(clip_N) + pauseLength.

    Helix doesn't mind gaps like this in SMIL files (I checked). In
    Playlist::valid(), we do reject playlists with gaps, but that is easy to
    change.

    At our meeting in Prag I spoak about it with Robert, and Akos i guess.

    True, those super-hitmix-radio stations will never broadcast silince, but I
    guess it is required by programs of other genre.

    let's not confuse pause with break. Sebastian means 'pause' as in
    'silence in the broadcast'. yes, it's part of the original concept, but
    then again, it wasn't part of the playlists as such. in the original
    concept, having silence meant not having a playlist at a given timepoint
    in the scheduler.

    not yet, sorry

  • Yes , sorry for my comment delay.

    Sebastian : Yes , You are right - HitMix or other modern concept radio
    stations shouldn`t have silence On Air :- )
    I think about situation , "break( stop ) after playing song" if you
    take live support in live assitance mode .
    Assitant mode means - that you have , mixpult , mic, tel. line, other
    "audio periferials ", and Live support works like "Music play
    machine" such as CD or PC- Winamp .etc

    Difference is in "pause " and "break " (or "stop" after
    playing audio file )

    If I understood Sebastian well . Smile
