Hello Dmitry,
For 7 years I have been using a DOS bat file to create a shift register to rotate and move playlists. It has always worked well with no errors or problems.
When I use RadioBOSS to look at the playlists in the folder I see this:
sponsor_block_01.m3u
When I use Windows explorer to look at the playlists in the folder I see this:
sponsor_block_01.m3u
sponsor_block_01.m3u.state
What I have been doing for the past 7 years is moving only the main file (sponsor_block_01.m3u)
copy "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_01.m3u" "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_temp.m3u"
copy "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_02.m3u" "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_01.m3u"
copy "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_03.m3u" "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_02.m3u"
copy "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_04.m3u" "w:\1_station_msg\blocks\sponsor_block_03.m3u"
etc.
Should I be moving both files ?
sponsor_block_01.m3u
sponsor_block_01.m3u.state
What is it that is contained in the m3u.state file ?
Thanks, Jamie C.
