<H2>Navigation</H2>
|
|
<H3>Context menus</H3>
|
|
<P>The Campcaster web client uses context menus extensively
|
|
throughout the program. For example, by clicking on the ScratchPad,
|
|
you can perform a number of operations on your file, including
|
|
adding it to a playlist and removing it from the ScratchPad.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>ScratchPad</H3>
|
|
<P>The ScratchPad provides you with a list of all the files (both
|
|
sound files and playlists) you have worked with recently. This
|
|
serves as both a "history" as well as a "clipboard"
|
|
for working with files between windows. You can listen to a sound
|
|
file from the ScratchPad by right-clicking 'Listen', which will send
|
|
the sound file to you for playback.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Playlists and ScratchPad</H3>
|
|
<P>Playlists appear in the ScratchPad differently than sound files.
|
|
A playlist that is currently open by you will appear in <B>bold</B>.
|
|
You can 'close' a playlist directly from the ScratchPad (see the
|
|
Playlist section for more on opened/closed playlists). A playlist
|
|
that is opened by somebody else in marked as locked by small icon,
|
|
and this which isn't opened will appear in normal text.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H2>Playlists</H2>
|
|
<P>Playlists are at the core of how Campcaster works. You add sound
|
|
files to a playlist, and then schedule that playlist to be played at
|
|
a date and time of your choosing. Playlists are edited in the
|
|
Playlist Editor. You can include an unlimited number of playlists
|
|
inside playlists; for example, if you have a one-hour show and want
|
|
to have two commercial breaks, each made up of their own playlists.</P>
|
|
<H3>Adding a file from the ScratchPad to the open playlist</H3>
|
|
<P>You can add a file (either a sound file or a playlist file) from
|
|
the ScratchPad to an playlist you opened before by right-clicking it
|
|
in the ScratchPad and selecting "Add to playlist". This
|
|
will add it to the end of the playlist.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Changing file order in the playlist</H3>
|
|
<P>You can change a file's order in the playlist by clicking on the
|
|
up or down arrows on the right.<BR>As of Campcaster 1.0.1, you can
|
|
drag and drop playlist items to change their order. This can be done
|
|
by ";Re-arrange playlist"; in the playlist editor.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Change transition</H3>
|
|
<P>Transitions between sound files are set to zero milliseconds by
|
|
default. You can change this by moving your mouse over the "Fade"
|
|
line in the Playlist window and selecting "Change Transition"
|
|
for a single transition, or by using the checkboxes in combination
|
|
with the "Change fades” button. In this popup window, you
|
|
can set the length of the transition or fade in/out.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Opening and closing a playlist</H3>
|
|
<P>Playlists can have 'opened' status. While a playlist is 'opened',
|
|
only you can edit the playlist, and other people are prevented from
|
|
making changes and scheduling. A closed playlist is one that isn't
|
|
currently edited by someone, so it can be used for broadcast and can
|
|
be added to the scheduler. An 'opened' playlist can continue to be
|
|
edited. Playlists can be opened for editing by right-clicking "Edit"
|
|
in the ScratchPad menu. This will take you to the playlist editor.
|
|
Just after a playlist have closed (and is on the ScratchPad), it
|
|
will appear in a list of playlists available for scheduling.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H2>Schedule</H2>
|
|
<P>Once you've created a playlist, schedule it for playback using
|
|
the Schedule window. (Please remember that only closed playlists can
|
|
be added to the schedule.)</P>
|
|
<H3>Adding a playlist to the schedule</H3>
|
|
<P>You can add it to the schedule by opening the Schedule window and
|
|
choosing a schedule view that suits you. Then you can add your
|
|
playlist to the schedule by right-clicking and choosing "Insert
|
|
playlist here". A popup window will then appear allowing you to
|
|
select the exact start time for your playlist, as well as a
|
|
pull-down menu listing available closed playlists.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Removing a playlist from the schedule</H3>
|
|
<P>You can remove a playlist from the schedule by right clicking on
|
|
its time [soon to be its title] and choosing "Remove Playlist".
|
|
This does not delete the playlist from the database, however. It
|
|
will remain in the system.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H2>Files</H2>
|
|
<P>Sound files are added to the Campcaster system in two steps.</P>
|
|
<H3>Uploading and analyzing</H3>
|
|
<P>The first step is to select the sound file you want to upload
|
|
into the Campcaster system. This is handled in the Upload -> New
|
|
file menu. You select the file to upload by clicking on the "Browse"
|
|
button, choosing your sound file, then clicking "Submit".
|
|
Campcaster automatically analyzes the sound file for any
|
|
information that may be stored in ID3 tags.<BR>See the
|
|
"Troubleshooting" section if you cannot upload files.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Describing your file using metadata</H3>
|
|
<P>The second step allows you to edit the information used to
|
|
describe the file (called "metadata") or to add your own.
|
|
If your sound file contains music, you have a number of options for
|
|
entering metadata under the "Music" tab. If your sound
|
|
file is a news report or other talk, choose the "Talk"
|
|
tab. The Talk tab allows reporters to include the time and date
|
|
their report is about, the organizations covered in the report, and
|
|
the location the report takes place in. Good metadata will help you
|
|
and other colleagues to later find and use the material you upload.
|
|
It's in your best interest to be as thorough as possible in
|
|
inputting this metadata.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H2>Browse and Search</H2>
|
|
<P>The browse and search functions are designed to be both easy to
|
|
use and powerful, helping you to search not only file titles but
|
|
also other metadata. Both browse and search let you search for both
|
|
sound files as well as playlists.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>Search works more or less like a regular search engine. You can
|
|
type in a word to be searched, and the results will appear below the
|
|
search input window. The difference is that you are searching the
|
|
metadata that you and your colleagues input to describe the sound
|
|
files you put in. Good metadata will mean better search results.</P>
|
|
<H3>Using the browse function</H3>
|
|
<P>The browse function is a powerful feature that lets you browse
|
|
all files according to general criteria you specify. The first
|
|
column lets you choose a category to browse from, such as ";Genre";.
|
|
Under that category, you can choose one of the options that appears
|
|
in that category, which refines the number of files displayed. The
|
|
second and third columns work in the same ways, and let you continue
|
|
to refine your browsing.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H3>Using multiple search terms</H3>
|
|
<P>Let's say you want to finding all files created by ";John
|
|
Doe"; in the year 2005. Do the following:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Select first the field to search
|
|
and input its value. In this case it would be to pull down the
|
|
";Creator"; field and type in ";John Doe"; in
|
|
the window.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Then press the ";Add One
|
|
Row"; button and an additional search row appears. Select the
|
|
";Year"; field and type in 2005 in the window.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P>Press ";Submit"; and your results - if any - will
|
|
appear below.
|
|
</P>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<H3>Working with the files you find</H3>
|
|
<P>You can add the files you find - in both browse and search -
|
|
either to your ScratchPad or directly to a new playlist.
|
|
Right-clicking on a file in the results window gives you a number of
|
|
options, such as:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Add to ScratchPad
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Listen
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">New playlist using file
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Edit
|
|
</P>
|
|
<LI><P>Delete
|
|
</P>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<H2>System Preferences</H2>
|
|
<P>Your station's system administrator can change a number of
|
|
system-wide settings in the System Preferences menu. In the System
|
|
Preferences you can:</P>
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Add your station's logo and
|
|
frequency

|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Set the number of items the
|
|
ScratchPad displays</P>
|
|
<LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0in">Set the maximum file size that
|

<H2>Troubleshooting</H2>
|
|
<H3>File Upload</H3>
|
|
<P>If you encounter the message <i>The uploaded file is bigger than allowed in system settings.</i> most probably the file size is bigger than
|
|
allowed in the PHP system settings of the machine you are running
|
|
Campcaster on. Please increase the settings of
|
|
"upload_max_filesize" and "post_max_size" in
|
|
php.ini. For more information, consult the <A HREF="http://en.flossmanuals.net/Campcaster" TARGET="_blank">Campcaster
