Title: PlayoutONE RDS encoder setup for RT and Radiotext Plus
Post by: Jan on September 04, 2021, 09:45:37 pm

The PlayoutONE supports Pira.cz XCMD format for the metadata output. The configuration for the RT and RT+ (as well as for Dynamic PS) is pretty easy. You don't need any special template, translator or device specific configuration.

• Open the Monitor and make sure it is connected to the player (message ALL OK)
• Go to Station Settings / Metadata Outputs
• Click on the TCP icon
• Fill the encoder's IP address and valid TCP port
• Fill following text to the Format box:
  XCMD=<rds><item><dest>3</dest><text><artist>%%Artist%%</artist> - <title>%%Title%%</title></text></item></rds>%%CarriageReturn%%

You may edit the format according to the X-Command documentation and PlayoutONE Monitor technical documentation.
