Layout 3 - RCS Master Control

English General
1

I’ll be putting some mAirList layouts into the Wiki later on this week - I’ll be adding a few “clone” layouts based upon other playout applications (people have asked me for a layout that resembles xxxx etc)… I’m working on an RCS Master Control layout, almost finished - just tidying-up some of the config options. The overall layout is show below; it work across a dual-screen system, and whilst not a 100% copy, it’s near enough for most :slight_smile:

Screen1:

Screen2:

I’ll post all the INI files, along with an updated screenshot later… It’ll be designed for 1280x1024 resolution. I’ll also do a Myriad one, and perhaps BCX or EncoDAD one.

Sounds very good. Great idea for us radio boffins!

How about a Dalet? If that’s possible of course which i presume would be to be honest. I may give it a go myself now you’ve mentioned it ha ha!

Thanks.

EDIT- How have you done this without runing your usual set up? Is there a way to still use the layout deigner to create a new layout without destroying the original one?

OK, here’s the config files for this one… I’ve included the mairlist.ini to save some time, you will need to set your sound devices and possibly a few minor options, but it should work OK.

NOTE: You will need a dual-head (twin screen) system running at 1280x1024 resolution.

The layoutdesigner is very easy to use - what’s causing the issue ?

Copy the config folder and rename it. Point the desktop shortcut to this new folder. If the new folder was called ryan the shortcut target (in properties) will be;

C:\mAirList\mAirList.exe -configdir c:\mairlist\ryan (assuming the mAirList folder is on the C drive).

In the original config folder create the new layout and add on the desktop a second mAirList shortcut (rename the shortcut to DEV etc).

Or simple install a second copy of mAirList and rename the shortcut.

Kind Regards tony

can someone work on one for scott studios/google automation?

In hand, but may take a week or so as I’m On Air or at a studio pretty much non stop over the Christmas/New Year period.

Kind Regards tony

Here’s as far as I’ve got, the cartwall when enabled will be on a second monitor. If you need all on 1 monitor its going to be a busy screen…

Here’s the layout that I am currently using. It sort of resembles Google Radio Automation.

See the attachments for a screenshot, my configuration, the skin, and the layout.

An updated version of this layout will be posted shortly - I just need to refine a few settings…

Tony: I’d say that for SS32/Google, you need much more rounded corners than that.

You may find this thread: http://forum.mairlist.com/index.php/topic,3384.0.html is of interest. :wink:
Note that you DO need mAirList build 544 or later to be able to use BackgroundColor in the Players and Cartwall sections.

I’ve decided to go for something more visually attractive - quite time consuming playing around with borders and colours in Paintbrush, but it appears to be coming along :slight_smile:

nice work!

Looks good with rounded corners.

Well worth spending the time you did on it!

Hi Cad, I had been following that thread and had the same problem…I just never get round to updating my home version of mAirList.

Kind Regards tony

I understand, but it’s well worth doing.

BorderRadius and BackgroundColor are MUCH easier than making custom graphics!!!

Hi,

How do you do for hiding the player status in player ?

In your layout, I see only the artist and the title : no time and no status… How should I do to hide them ?

Thanks for your help.

As far as I remember setting the font size to 0 should do the trick.

Yes you’re right Torben. Thank you.

One question again : is it possible to define a specific color for the player time, when ramp is playing ??
PlayingTimeFontColor change color for the player time when it’s begun. But, is it possible to give it a new color for ramp ?

Thanks for your help.

19

No, it’s not possible.

Love the RCS layout, however I have a problem with it that I dont know how to solve. When I load items in the playlist, the files title and artist are cant be read. The same applies to with the players when the file plays. I tried with the layout designer, but I cant seem to fix them. Any suggestions? I am also attaching the config files if someone is skilled in programming
