Title: 'line separator'
Post by: radioroccella on December 08, 2024, 10:47:37 am

Hello, in my rds I would like the artist and the song title to go on two separate lines.
How can I configure the software?
Thanks

Enable the RT+ in the External Text Source.

I've already done it

I mean, the RT+ command was already enabled.
Is there a specific instruction to have two separate lines?

See our F.A.Q.:

Can the RDS encoder control graphic layout and text positioning on modern receivers?
https://pira.cz/rds/show.asp?art=rds_encoder_support#layout

Most receivers show RT+ artist and title on separate lines. There's no global instruction for the layout control.

Sending carriage return character inside the RT text is forbidden - the RDS standard defines it as the RT terminator.
