Hello, I'm happily using autocue on azuracast stable v0.20.2 with the default settings (I've just enabled it in the ui, no liquidsoap tweaking).
My only problem arises with syndicated news that I download half an hour before airtime with a wget batch which always overwrites the same file (so no liq_ tags in it).
The first time it aired autocue compiled azuracast's track editor fields and now every time it goes onair it's played with wrong cue points.
I see in the faq you suggest to add the liq_cue_file tag and set it to true but how to do it?
Is it better to cue the file in my script like this:
echo '{"liq_cue_file": true}' | cue_file -j - -fwr "news.mp3"
or to delete the metadata with an api call to force autocue:
curl -X 'PUT'
'https://xxx.xxx.xxx/api/station/x/file/xxxx'
-H 'accept: application/json'
-H 'X-API-Key: xxx'
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
-d '{
"extra_metadata": {
"liq_amplify": null,
"liq_cross_start_next": null,
"liq_cue_in": null,
"liq_cue_out": null,
"liq_fade_in": null,
"liq_fade_out": null
}
}'
