Broadcasting stream from different studios

[Chris Deacon]

How would this work: my master RB currently provides the broadcast stream from a central server. This can provide the nowplaying metadata to the website. How would I be able to maintain continuity if I were to originate RB playout from other studios? Do I switch the broadcast stream to the other locations (messy) or is there a way of feeding the studio streams and track data to the master broadcast machine? Your thoughts please….

Do you want two or more RadioBOSS instances to be fully synchronized and play the same things? If so, this wouldn't really be possible especially if you use randomized items like Track List.

You can have master RadioBOSS and send the stream to it where it's needed via streaming servers (or even using the integrated server).

No only one instance would be used for the stream at any one time. The master sends the automated playlist to air, and when a studio goes live, it replaces the master feed (both streaming and FM antenna) and the nowplaying data needs to switch from the master to the studio. Do you mean that we could stream from the studio to the master so the now playing data continues from the new location? How would we use the integrated server for this?
