RadioBOSS 7.0 [beta]

[tomimatko]

give it the color you want.

Yes, it would be good if the Hour Marker could be colored to make it more visible in the playlist.

tags do seem to be adable if doing it outside of track tool and track properties aka right clicking and adding tag but only for the ones that have become properly visible

RadioBOSS will not save a tag if it was unable to read it - this is to prevent corrupting the file. The problem is that tag is not read for some files, we'll fix it in the next update I think.

Display of the currently playing track in the title bar of the window and in the taskbar (advanced option)
Usage zero because you still have to move the mouse over the icon for the title to be displayed

It's not possible aby other way because Windows only shows tooltip once mouse is there.

View/Style - added waveform color option
I can't find any changes there even if I have set the waveform

Do you mean changing the color in the settings doesn't change the actual color in the Nowplaying bar?

What does the button at the bottom enabled/disabled do?
what is turned on and off there a little note on the button would be very helpful

It's to only show tracks that are not disabled.

Hay un problema con la salida de audio, reproduce la lista pero el audio no sale

Please write in English.

Hello, I have a problem with the teaser and it is that on rare occasions it does not select songs. example: Teaser should select 4 tracks and sometimes it selects 3 out of 4. Leaving only the transition effect to play. I have been in charge of marking hook in and kooh out in more than 30 songs

Does it show any error messages in the log?

I think I've mentioned it before, but could you place the "log" tab in any work area for an upcoming update?

This is still on our to-do list.

but it would be even cooler to be able to configure it according to personal requirements.
It currently marks the hours, it would be nice to be able to set it to mark every 30 or 15 minutes and give it the color you want.

We'll consider that, thank you.

Yes, it would be good if the Hour Marker could be colored to make it more visible in the playlist.

This is possible - you can control hour marker appearance from Settings / File Types, if you don't see a file type for hour marker there, you can either press the "Add default file types" button, or add it manually with ".hourmarker" identifier (w/o quotes).

I've just tested the beta version of Radioboss 7.0.4 but I haven't seen anything about the teasers.
I wanted to ask if it's possible to put two extracts of two upcoming titles in a playlist and then put another song before them in full.
thanks

Does it show any error messages in the log?

No, no error appears in the log This error rarely happens to me but it happens.

 

[xzsaimon16]

For a next update it would be possible that when navigating with the right click on the: "intro mark", "outro mark" and "intro/outro mark" the count does not disappear.
Maintaining the exact time where said mark was clicked

 

[xzsaimon16]

Is it possible to add the "tag" column in the search engine?


and...

It is possible that when writing without accents in the search engine it will still show me the results with accents.

This is because there are songs with accents and the operator sometimes finds them because he does not know how to place the accents.

Just like windows does.

Example I write to search: "Alvarez"

The result is:
Alvarez
Álvarez

Looks like you need to add a Teaser for 2 tracks, and once it finishes, it will move on to the next track in the playlist. If you need a full song before teaser, you can add that in the Teaser configuration as "Start".

No, no error appears in the log This error rarely happens to me but it happens.

Thank you for the details, maybe it's a bug, will be checked.

For a next update it would be possible that when navigating with the right click on the: "intro mark", "outro mark" and "intro/outro mark" the count does not disappear.

This is a known limitation, I'll see if this can now be dealt with, given that it's a major 7.0 update

 

[djsoft]

Yes, one of the next updates will have it.

The search should ignore any accented characters, can you please give an example when it does not?

Many thanks for adding this option to change from "UTF-8 with
BOM" to "UTF-8 without bom" in version 7.0.0.3 beta.
The metadata of the song is now perfectly transmitted via DAB+

Ok, image 1 shows a song with accents. (without searching)

In image 2 the search Without accents did not show the song seen in image 1.

In image 3 the search did find said song but it ignored the song that is in image 2

I think that what RB did is correct, the complete character is ignored, so Á is different from A, if you write: lvarez, both results will appear.

the main idea is to write the complete word

but in my case I would prefer the search engine to be like in Windows. because I can write the title of a song in the search engine, for example the word: "ALGUN" the search does not show me the titles that have the accent on the "U" (the correct word is "ALGÚN". In this case it forces you to write with the accent, which is annoying for people who don't know how to place accents on the keyboard.

I understand the situation and I think that for all languages that use accents, this search does not work.
I think the easiest and fastest thing would be to remove all the accents. But obviously the professional solution would be for RB to search the DB without considering the accents, for Spanish: á = a, é = e, í = i. ó = o and ú = u -> Both uppercase and lowercase

 

[patrick.de-bruyn]

when you go on air, the first track ALWAYS starts as soon as you press the on air button even if the stream is still occupied and you are not on air and only in waiting position until the stream is free
So the playlist does not wait until the connection is established
this is also the case with the current 6.3.3 version

Exactly, just like searching for something in Windows. It searches in the same way whether you write without accents and displays results with or without accents. In Spanish there are many operators who do not know how to use accents on the keyboard, when searching for a song they say they can't find it and end up downloading it again.

i agree this can make searching for some artists or song titles hard

you can change the settings so the playlist does not auto start when you click connect and you manually start the song... but the easiest way around would be to figure out the average hang and either wait a bit before connecting or have a instrumental/talk bed before any songs, never had an issue with any of the stations ive been at as the disconnect is usually really quick can be slower depending on what software the previous person uses some are resource hogs that take longer to disconnect i think the worst software for this is VDJ but from what I've seen its improved recently to within 5-10 seconds

i would like the first song to start automatically when the connection is created, but not before, that used to be no problem

if a colleague broadcasts before you and you click on the globe, it was always the case that the radioboss waited until the currently broadcasting DJ went down from the stream and then automatically connected and played the first song at the same time
this is no longer the case now the rb plays the first song regardless of whether the connection was established and is only on hold
