On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the release of Rivendell v1.5.1. 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: New Translation. A German-language (DE) translation has been added. ALSA Configuration Tool. An RDAlsaConfig application has been added that allows ALSA device configuration to be done completely by means of a GUI interface. Removed the requirement for sox(1). New Switcher Driver. Added a driver for the BroadcastTools SS4.4 switcher. New Report. Added an AsPlayed report for the RadioTraffic traffic system. Bugfixes. See the ChangeLog for details. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 179, 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.
