Configuration Options and Possibilities / Re: max song title on radio screen

If the song title remains during the commercial break, focus your attention on the broadcast automation system. If there's no text assigned to the commercial break, the Magic RDS cannot recognize it and keeps the last text until it expires.

Disable Radiotext 2.

Radiotext 1 is the one which is filled by the Magic RDS.

So should i disable both radio text 1 and 2, and rely on the RT for my text? (Which i did)

The problem of your setup is that the RT1<->RT2 switching inside the encoder is not synchronized with the Magic RDS External text sources. The External text sources tool does not control Radiotext 2. The Radiotext 2 is deprecated feature and should be entirely disabled if the encoder is permanently online.

Use the setup proposed here - it is simple to realize and the result is perfect:

If you add the Text Campaigns and inline RT+ for fixed text messages, you'll bring your RDS to another level.

Version 4.2.4

http://pira.cz/rds/magicrds/MagicRDS_Setup.exe

  • DAB DL+ model supports up to 4 tags
  • If DAB DL+ UECP MEC 48 is enabled, it works also when software RT+ encoder is active. Single UECP connection can feed a network of RDS and DAB+ encoders.
  • Demo encoder: Extensions/RT+ is automatically enabled upon start-up
  • P164 RDS Encoder: remote management device website made available via the Magic RDS 4 webserver. All RDS encoders are accessible via one login and one IP address.
  • Bug fixes: terminal lock-up, external text sources unwanted prefix/suffix in XML/JSON sources, virtual port 'Show buffer' button for line separator entered in milliseconds, remote bridge failure, external text minimum display time failure when more sources are in the sequence

It works!
The second option turned out to be the most suitable.
Thank you. As always, you found the solution.

Control Software / Re: Nexgen config for Pira32 encoder
« Last post by Jan on April 01, 2025, 08:12:27 am »
You no longer need to feed each encoder individually if the Magic RDS 4 is running anywhere. (On the other hand, you can still keep such setup as a backup - alternative configuration). You do not need any extra PC. The Magic RDS 4 is a full featured RDS server software, so it takes over all tasks related to the RDS network management, incl. data distribution to each encoder. It's usually much more convenient. The P164 was primarily developed for this mode of operation.
So you can send data from Nexgen while sending scheduled messages from the Magic RDS 4. The Nexgen will connect to the Magic RDS 4 instead of the encoders.

My five NexGen ASERV machines currently feed old Audemat FMB80s serially, with dead web-configuration interfaces. I'd like to replace the FMB80s with P164s. I want NexGen to feed them over the network (TCP) instead of serially. I do not want to have additional PC software in the path for the Title and Artist data.  I would ALSO like to include dynamic PS messages that changes on a schedule throughout the day. I don't mind using another PC (running Magic RDS4) for the scheduled changes to the PS. Will this work: direct-feeding the P164 with T&A, while also making dynamic PS changes using Magic RDS4?   I'm sorry if this is repetitive. I will read the manual, and ask more questions if needed during install, but need to order the devices soon if they are to arrive in time.  B/R Mike
