How does RadioBOSS handle repeated tracks in multi-station shared database mode ? (tracks.db)

[JeanXeb]

Hi Radioboss,

When RadioBOSS uses a shared tracks.db for multiple studios, each with its own repetition rules (e.g., artist/title separation, timed protections), can a track already scheduled in Station A still be scheduled in Station B—even if recently played—provided it complies with Station B’s specific rules?

Example:
Coldplay - Spies plays in Station A at 10:00 AM (protected by a 4-hour artist repeat rule in Station A).
Station B has a 2-hour track repeat rule. Can Station B schedule the same song at 11:00 AM, or does the shared tracks.db enforce global restrictions?"*

Repeat Protection by default uses the Last Played tag, and as it can be written by either of the instances, the other instance will not take this track, considering it as "played".

Is there a way round the problem ?
