Error: Scheduling is unavailable because the xxxx streaming source is in use
Apr 18, 2011 07:00am
Question:
When attempting to create a Scheduled playlist, I receive the following error message:

Note: scheduling is unavailable because the xxxx streaming source is in use, which does not support scheduling.

What does this mean, and how do I correct it?


Answer:
This message indicates that you are not using ices-cc as your streaming source.  ices-cc is the recommended streaming source for Centova Cast v2.x, and it provides features which Centova Cast uses for its track scheduling capabilities.

Other streaming sources simply do not offer the necessary functionality for track scheduling, and thus these feature will be unavailable to you if you are not using ices-cc.

ices-cc is a free, open-source product.  More information about ices-cc is available at:
http://www.centova.com/pages/icescc/


I am using ices-cc, but I still see this message -- how do I fix this?

If you are, in fact, using ices-cc, but you still see this message, then you simply need to tell Centova Cast that you are using ices-cc.  To do so, edit the file /home/centovacast/system/config.php and add the following after the "<?php" line:

define('ICES_SCRIPTABLE',true);

This will instantly activate the track scheduling functionality in Centova Cast and remove the above error message.
