On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.5.0. Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License. From the NEWS file: *** snip snip *** If upgrading from a v1.x version of Rivendell, be sure to read the 'UPGRADING' file before proceeding for important information. Changes: LiveWire Virtual GPIO Driver. Added a fully native virtual GPIO LiveWire driver for situations where the proprietary software LiveWire/ALSA driver is not available (e.g. when using an ASI6x85 adapter). See 'SWITCHERS.txt' for details. Console Channel Control. Added the capability to automate console channel ON/OFF control bidirectionally from RDAirPlay. (Configured in RDAdmin->ManageHosts->RDAirPlay). Multiple bug fixes. See the ChangeLog for details. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 220, 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.
