Hot Keys

We are wondering whether any thought has been given to the ability to play a rotation file from a hot key.

We need to manually play a different sponsor message every hour. It would be very useful if you were able to hit one of the function keys and play the next message in the rotation.

Re: Hot Keys

Good idea, but it's currently not possible. Maybe in the next version.

But you could start a second instance of Raduga and set it to "manual" player mode. Then add one or more rotations to the master playlist. By double-click on one of these rotation files you will play one track from the rotation. When you double-click again, you'll get the next track.

Re: Hot Keys

Hi Wolfgang - Thanks for the suggestion but we had already tried running a second application of Raduga.

The problem is that we use Raduga's built-in remote start function and when you press the start button, both versions start at the same time. :(

It would be ok if only the active window played - but they both do.

We can overcome this problem by having the annoucers use the 'N' key but they don't always remember.
