scheduled song/commercial

mrthemesong · 19th September 2003, 08:30

I have a broadcast that runs 24/7. I have a playlist that plays songs all day and night. When I have a scheduled commercial or other event, I have to physically be there to stop the playlist, then play the commercial or scheduled event then start the playlist again. Is there a program or plugin for winamp that will do this so I don't have to physicaly be there to stop the playlist, play the event, and go back to the playlist? For example do the playlist but at "6:00pm on tuesday" stop and play a scheduled event, then go back to the playlist until "9am on friday" to play another scheduled event, then to return to the playlist again? Please let me know if anyone knows of such a program or plugin. Thanks for all of the help.

The one that's been highly suggested:

SAM2 (though the site server appears to be down at this exact moment)

For a couple other alternatives, Check out the results from a SHOUTcast forum search on 'scheduling'.

Look for a post by arti titled:
scheduling jingles

Note: Other search criteria may yield more results.

You can also accomplish rotation with pre-constructed playlists and Windows Scheduler.

For linux, see this thread.
