Send upcoming playlist info to Twitter

[howebzar]

I wold like to send a Tweet listing some of the artists we will be playing in the next few minutes. To run on a regular basis via schedule (say hourly)

"Coming up soon on CrowZone, The Killers, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, U2, Bastille"

Should be possible to gather the Artist tag for the next few songs (exclude any other File Types) and post a report using the Twitter API.
What do you think?

There's no ready solution for this. But you can use the API to retrieve playlist contents from the playlist, and then display the information you need. About the API: http://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/index.html

That link just goes to the index page. I'm not a SW coder so working with the API is going to be tricky for me I think

Sorry, here's the correct link: http://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/remote_controlapi.htm

Currently it's the only way to achieve this. In the future we'll release some example scripts to use the API, maybe those will include listing the "Coming up next" tracks.
