SC_Trans Sudden Playlist Problem

[lemurgazda]

Hello there! I'm just asking, if anyone of you ever experienced this problem:

My radio was streaming with no problems, but all of a sudden, the Transcoder started to miss the playlist files. Nothing changed, playlists are in the same place about 4 days, nothing was renamed or anything. Restarting of everything didn't work.

Very strange thing is, that when I use the

code:
playlistfile = C:\Users\Administrator\Music\Playlists\Lemur.pls

It works. But I use the calendar, so instead I have to declare this:

code:
playlistfilepath_1 = C:\Users\Administrator\Music\Playlists\Lemur.pls

And this receives warning, that the playlist is empty - What the hell??
Also in sc_trans log is mentioned that

code:
2014-09-13 16:28:59	I	msg:[PLAYLISTMGR] Playlist load from file 

2014-09-13 16:28:59	E	msg:[PLAYLISTMGR] Could not activate playlist `' because no playlist file found 

But I don't have any unnamed playlist! This makes no sense!

Anybody knows how to fix this ?

You need to add your playlist as event in the calendar.xml. The event should'nt have start/endtime, that means you should have this values for start/end: 00:00:00 if you want have a 24/7 playlist.

About the calendarxml file, this is what I have inside:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<eventlist>

<event type="playlist">
<playlist loopatend="1" shuffle="1" priority="1" >lemur</playlist>
<calendar starttime="00:00:00" duration="24:00:00" repeat="62" />
</event>


</eventlist>

also in the config file is

playlistfilename=lemur
playlistfilepath=C:\Users\Administrator\Music\Playlists\Lemur.pls

With the linux version i can't reproduce this issue. It works in both ways that you described.
