Airtime broadcasting "silently" after Mixxx live broadcasting
Guys - let's not flood the poor person's post for help with snarky, uninstructive comments (like yours @John Chewter), or too many things to check (like yours @Voisses Tech). Instead, lets get the basic stuff confirmed, and move on from t…

Airtime broadcasting "silently" after Mixxx live broadcasting
What version of Airtime are you running? Can you confirm what a "non regular" time of day is?

I am failing to import "tracknumber" (id3=TRCK)
Hi Jesse, Thanks for the detail in your post. This is a known issue with the Airtime media importer - https://dev.sourcefabric.org/browse/CC-5680 - a quick (and very dirty) workaround would be to strip the "/10" component from the 't…

[SOLVED] apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work
Glad to hear Maxime - thanks for taking the time to report back and mark the discussion as solved. I'm sure this will prove useful to other Airtime users in the future!

Loving it.. but...2 queries if anyone can help... thanx
Hi Mike, Yep, you can use shoutcast as well as/instead of icecast for streaming: just configure the "Service type" options for output streams via the web interface at /Preference/stream-setting. More information on configuring input and ou…

[Rebroadcast] Playing out the content results in silence
@Marcin, I've seen this behaviour previously, but not so much in the 2.5 branch. It does sound a lot like an ls bug, but I wonder... can you provide a screenshot of your /Preference/stream-setting page, or transcribe the details for the input a…

[Rebroadcast] Playing out the content results in silence
That would be appreciated John. I'm sure you can appreciate the difficulty in resolving an issue that can't be reproduced... hopefully there will be a better outcome next time.

[Rebroadcast] Playing out the content results in silence
@John, could you provide one of these (pre-recoded) MP3s that required recoding before they'll play? We could then verify and have a reproducible test case, which typically makes finding the source of the bug a bit easier.

Get description-name for a show currently broadcasting
Hi Jason, Regarding the live stream metadata, it seems there is an enhancement request for this feature already: http://dev.sourcefabric.org/browse/CC-3967. Feel free to vote on this issue, as it will provide a reminder to the dev team of its import…

Display next and previous song at my website possible?
Hi Paul, I guess it comes down to whether or not you want to use the APIs to obtain information, or grok server logs etc. Notice the API is "live" information, hence the brevity of details made available. There is also the "week-info&…

broadcast without shows
Hi Horia, I suppose you could use Airtime to live broadcast from another source (Mixxx, Winamp DSP, etc) - there have been a few posts on this topic of late. I guess you've discovered, however, Airtime is very much centred around the idea of *s…

Deleting music file
Hi Mella, Airtime won't let you delete content that is scheduled to play. The Airtime User Guide explains how to remove scheduled content - have a look at the bottom of http://sourcefabric.booktype.pro/airtime-25-for-broadcasters/calendar/ &quo…

Removing the time elapsed / remaining from the widgets
Glad to hear. As I guess you figured out, you can add CSS declarations to the (wait for it) CSS file, or put it inline in the HTML. Another solution would have been to actually remove the elements using javascript. The CSS merely hides them...

publishing tracks history
Couldn't you harvest the information from the live-info json feed (see http://sourcefabric.booktype.pro/airtime-25-for-broadcasters/exporting-the-schedule/), and build up your own history? You could use the starts/ends timestamps to tell you wh…

Removing the time elapsed / remaining from the widgets
What about adding a CSS display:none for the relevant spans? .time-elapsed, .time-remaining { display:none;}

[SOLVED] apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work
Hmm, I've had a bit of a poke around the deb source package, and it seems your install should at least be reporting 2.5.1. It might be worthwhile running apt-get install --reinstall airtime to re-apply the airtime package, just in case somethin…

[SOLVED] apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work
Hi Maxine, OK, I can confirm you've got the latest version. Although airtime-check-system is reporting 2.5.0, dpkg does not lie :) Hunting around a bit, I've noticed the version details as available to airtime-check-systemdiffer from what …

[SOLVED] apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work
Hi Maxine, Thanks for the extra information. It's interesting that your apt-get update command isn't showing an updated Airtime package - if you look at http://apt.sourcefabric.org/dists/precise/main/binary-i386/Packages, you can see it is…

[SOLVED] apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't work
Hi Maxine, What happens if you follow `apt-get update` with `apt-get --just-print upgrade`, instead of `apt-get dist-upgrade`? I'd be interested in the output of that... Note the --just-print bit stops the upgrade from actually happening, inst…

Partial database backup?
Hi Tomi, If you have some unix development skills, you can probably manage this. It is possible, but not via a method that's easily accessible to the lay user. Booktype is a python application, which uses the Django application framework. You c…

Building Liquidsoap from Source
I think you need to upgrade your version of Git. The build scripts are working fine, but that error indicates the version of Git on your local machine is out of date: you want v1.8.0 at least. ("--set-upstream-to" is a new flag, which your…

Backing up my server
Hi Nat, Whether backing up everything simplifies recovery depends on your recovery strategy. When I recover (be it a server, laptop, phone, whatever), I usually re-install the OS, then re-apply my configuration, applications and data. Applications a…
