Playlists & media tags #
- Admin → Library → Playlists: ordered lists of tracks you can apply to the log or attach to shows. A playlist item can be a specific track or a tag.
- Admin → Library → Media tags: labels (e.g. "Feel-good", "Christmas") you assign to tracks. A playlist that references a tag picks a random tagged track at air time and won't repeat one until the pool cycles, smart-playlist placeholders.
Content pools (decks) #
Admin → Programming → Content pools. Reusable decks of playlists/media that a CONTENT_POOL
clock slot draws from, in Sequential, Random, or Random-no-repeat order. Myriad-style
rotation for features and pre-records.
Advert campaigns & trafficking #
Admin → On Air → Advert breaks. Build campaigns (advertiser, priority, start/end dates, a
max-per-hour cap) made of spots (an ADVERT track + a weight). When the generator fills an
ADVERT_BREAK, it rotates by priority and weight, avoids repeating within the break, and falls
back to library ADVERT/JINGLE/ID content if campaigns don't fill the time.
News feeds #
Admin → Programming → News feeds. Point at a bulletin URL (e.g. an SNR feed); the worker
fetches it hourly at the minute you choose. A NEWS clock slot plays the latest bulletin. Fetch
status and errors are shown for diagnostics.
Podcasts #
Admin → Programming → Podcast feeds. Subscribe to an RSS feed; the worker polls it, discovers episodes, and (optionally) auto-downloads new ones into a playlist or content pool as PODCAST tracks.
Hospital & charity content #
Admin → On Air → Hospital content. Pools of hospital/charity spots with weighted rotation and
an optional active window (start/end dates). A HOSPITAL clock slot draws from them, and play
counts keep rotation fair.
Song requests #
Listeners submit requests at the public /requests page (name, ward, song, message, no login).
Moderate them in Admin → Programming → Song requests: approve/reject, match to a library
track, and schedule.
