On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the release of Rivendell v1.3.0. Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License. Changes in this release include (from the NEWS file): *** snip snip *** Changes: Podcast System Enhancements. Support has been added to allow interoperation with third-party podcast traffic measurement and verification systems. It is also now possible to override the default ordering of episodes and configure automatic redirection of feed subscriptions. RDLogManager Enhancements. It is now possible to configure log import under-/over-fill warnings even for non-autofill events. When generating import warnings, RDLogManager will now warn if the dayparting parameters would cause a scheduled event to be unplayable at its scheduled time. An overall length counter has also been added for the Pre- and Post-Import lists in the Edit Event dialog. New RML. A new 'Message Box' ['MB'] RML has been added that allows a popup message to sent to any Rivendell workstation. (Be sure to see the 'MESSAGE_BOX.txt' file for information on configuring X11 to work properly with this feature). RLM Changes. An 'rlm_album' field has been added to the metadata fields and the API version incremented to '1'. A new plugin ('rlm_ando') has been added to allow interconnection with the Ando Media Ad Injector System. Bugfixes. See the ChangeLog for details. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 174, and will automatically upgrade any earlier versions. To see the current schema version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo. As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied. *** snip snip *** Further information, screenshots and download links are available at: http://www.rivendellaudio.org/ Cheers! |-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.
