On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.5.2. 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: Binary Escape Codes. It is now possible to craft messages for the 'Serial Out' ['SO'] and 'UDP Out' ['UO'] RMLs containing arbitrary binary sequences. See the 'BINARY DATA' section of 'docs/rml.sxw' for details. New Switcher Device. A switcher driver has been added for the 360 Systems AM16 Audio Crosspoint Switcher. See 'docs/SWITCHERS.txt' for details. 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.
