How to get a file previously inserted into the record collection and bring it to the broadcasting list ?

First of all select the collection you want: Music, Jingles, Spots or Others; then, if your searching for a jingle, a spot  or a "other" then select it in the light brown list and drag it (push the mouse left button on the artist column and on the file field, stay pushed and move the file into the white list, the broadcasting list)  into the Broadcasting list with the mouse. It's a little different for music: you can browse by style or search for a specified artist or song title. To browse by style just select the style you wish in the combo box, the songs will appear in the light brown list, proceed as for the collections. To search for an artist or song title just type it in the search text box (write at least 3 letters).

Hints ...

Double click on a file to ear it on the PFL output. Press Ctrl and click on a file to edit it's form. You also can arrange the brown list ascending or descending for Artist, Title and Length columns clicking on them.

The Direct button is used to disable automatic Spots / News managing and tells the Gate Radio to stay in Direct Live mode even if there isn't anything in the broadcasting list. Either, Gate Radio will automatically change to Automatic mode as soon as there isn't anything in the direct live broadcasting list; in order to prevent the broadcasting to be stopped.

The Disable Jingles button turns the automatic jingles insertion off. 

The green on-print button allows to broadcast a selected jingle on the music playing (Gate Radio needs to be broadcasting).

 

Here is the dialog box used to choose a file when you add it to the Record collection, the database with all the sound files your Gate Radio can play. This dialog is also used as a  PFL during direct live broadcasting.  

Clicking the icon with the Hand selects all the forms.
