MusicMix offers this log format which is used when the log system is set to "BE," and another format which is used when the log system is set to "AUDIOVAULT" (see "Using Audiovault Digitial Automation"). The AUDIOVAULT format is based on the "RCS-Selector" output format described in AudioValut documentation. Audiovault users may use either format.
The Broadcast Programming "Core" controller or
Audiovault allows you to set up a configuration
file specifying how various music scheduling information will be located. The
output file from MusicMix listed below must match your BE configuration set-up
where you can indicate which columns you'll use.
Of greatest importance will be the duration, source ID, shelf ID, and track ID
columns since they are used to direct the automation to the appropriate titles.
(MusicMix's "Bin" field is not used.)
Technical Information:
1) The daily playlists are output to the user selected path as "mmddyy.ASC"
where "mmddyy" is month, date, and year of the playlist. They are erased after
14 days.
2) The library file is output as "LIBRARY.ASC" to the same path.
3) Both files are standard ASCII Standard Data Format text files with one record
per line. Records are delimited by CR/LF, fields are not delimited.
