Configuration Options and Possibilities / Re: Please Help..... Showing artist/title and weather in a loop (P164)
« Last post by Jan on Today at 05:31:55 am »In your Source 1 (CurrentSong.txt) the Expires After parameter is set to 10. That means "show the song only for 10 seconds, then disappear until the song name changes".
Suggested first aid solution: set to defaults:
Go to next after: 60
Keep in cache for: 0
Expires after: -1
For best result, consider following:
for the song, set Go to next after to 300 seconds, for the weather, set the Go to next after to 20 seconds
for the song, set the Expires after to 600 seconds (or whatever you want to prevent showing the song if the broadcast automation stops playing)
update the Magic RDS 4 to the most recent version
enable the RT+ for all the Sources; for the song, enable the item toggle ant item running control
enable the Output's transition optimizer (~15 seconds)
in the P164, enable the Dynamic group sequence and Default Radiotext
The P164 supports remote monitoring of the output data, just click on the RDS Spy button to see the effect of current settings. It usually tells you more than your car radio.
