Schedule another stream

[westendradio]

I would like to schedule a stream of another radio station every Friday from 20:00 to 22:00 so that it will also play. Is that possible and how do I set that up. Who can explain this please.

If I understand you correctly you want to 'relay' another radio station/stream - meaning you just constantly 'play' a certain URL stream.
To achieve this do the following:

1) Define a regular Program Scheduler entry:
This might invoke a simple 'Script' which contains as the first script-line:
- LoadTrack, <url>, 1, Option: KeepStreamLoading, KeepStreamAlive
This script would then play out your stream URL constantly in a playlist window.
You might add more script-lines (as a fallback) in case the URL is unavailable. Set the LoopLine script parameter to 2.
When you specify the LoadTrack script-line click into the Entry column and the hold down the STRG key and click on the '...' at the end of the entry column to directly edit and test the URL parameter. Specify the total duration (HH:MM:SS) of the URL (how long the entry should play within a playlist) or set the duration to 00:00:00 to specify an unlimited length - the end of the program will specify the effective end time/duration.

2) You can use the dedicated MOD-Stream-Watcher feature.
See here for details: http://www.proppfrexx.radio42.com/forum ... t=57&p=212
This feature is kind of designed to take over another stream URL. It is controlled by control-commands which starts and stops the MODStream Watcher, as explained in the above post.
