sc_trans webmanager, monitoring, calendar...

Hello again!

After some days looking for a solution to my problems, I couldn't find more than simple linux scripts used for sc_trans v1.

I couldn't find any web interface (apart from the testui that comes with sc_trans 2). I would like a web interface to handle with calendar: I need to load a new playlist every day with the format 2011-01-21.m3u (for example) and I would like to do it automatically. Futhermore, I would like to monitor the sc_trans process and if there's and error, or it crashes, the system will send me an email or a msn message, and it will recover automatically.

So I don't know if that's possible. The only solutions I could find to these problems are for sc_trans 1 by using scripts:
-For changing the playlist every day: rename the playlist and kill -USR1 $PID with cron at midnight.
-For monitoring the sc_trans process: listening to the audio stream each 5 minutes and if there's a big silence, then restart the sc_trans process.

But I couldn't find anything for sc_trans version 2. The perfect solution I think is to use a web interface to manage the process from everywhere, handling automatically the playlists every day and loading them, as well as monitoring it.

If you just know anything that could help me I'll be very thankfull...

Futhermore, I don't know how to use the calendar in sc_trans v2... even after reading the documentation (can the calendar be only changed at the running time using ajax or what? could I use a script?). Could I use the calendar for my purpose?

Thank you!

Jake
