Automatically insert jingle over a program

Post by amaurydixx »

Hello,

I want to automatically put (with volume attenuation) a jingle every 10 minutes during a program.
How can I do?

Thank you.

Then the overlay scheduler seems to be the right choice.
You actually need to create 6 overlays and eg. specify an hourly recurrence. Ie at :00, :10, :20, :30, :40 and :50.
You can then use a small script for that overlay having only one script line which picks the jingle. Then make sure to NOT specify the Suspend flag and define an attenuation for the overlay.

Can you explain this a bit more?

Should the jingle play exactly every 10 minutes?
If yes you might use the overlay scheduler to do so and use a Fixed start time.

Else you much also use FixedTimeElements within your script to schedule them.
