On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.1.4. 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 *** Changes: This is a maintenance release of Rivendell. Some of the issues addressed include: RDCatch XLoad Wildcards. Several new wildcards and meta-characters have been added for specifying URLs in RDCatch, including: $e -- Day of the month, space padded ( 1 - 12) $E -- Day of the month, unpadded (1 - 12) ^ -- Convert value indicated by following format character to all uppercase. $ -- Convert the initial character of the value indicated by the following format character to uppercase. A complete list of wildcards can be found in 'docs/datetime_wildcards.txt'. HPI Compatibility. Updated HPI subsystem to work with the latest AudioScience driver versions (v4.10.x). RDLibrary Reports. Fixed a problem where generated reports would not accurately reflect the current cart filters. A detailed list of all bugfixes can be found in the ChangeLog. Database Update: This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 205, 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.
