SayTime VO

@nonstopgospel: doesn't play at all, or?

No Marius Say Time doesn't play at all. TTS for some strange reason work since I updated from version 1.8.2..
I really don't know what is going on.
I am running Windows 10..

Guys, this version should really work, please keep in mind the next things:
- Windows 10 is blocking any downloaded dll files. Solution, when downloading archives with dll files, right click on the archive, check unblock and press Apply button and only then unzip the file. More on this.
- Saytime audio files should be in the "Plugin_SayTime" folder and not in "SayTime" like before (see the changes list).

Marius,

I installed the SayTime plugin according to your instructions, but both versions (Time Announce and Voiceover) run as voiceover. I have the announce set up to run between a PSA and a station promo, but it runs over the promo. The voiceover version of the plugin works fine.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks Marius, the problem with the Say Time is FIXED I had the AUDIO File in the Say Time Folder. Like you have said the Audio File must be in the Plugin_SayTime FOLDER. 

Thanks Again Marius

I made 2 new SayTime as Chip did (Time Announce and Voiceover) and I can confirm: both run as voiceover. But it's right like that because now you don't have the "Pause playlist" option anymore. What it's not correct is that they both react in the same way, there should be a difference. Now coming back to Chip's problem: if you follow my suggestions and create a playlist with the effect I explained before, you have done. If you don't want any kind of music/effect over your saytime you can even record a blank effect.

plauri,
It works! It is a great temporary fix until Marius can address the underlying problem...

Good to know you did it!

Here's why I think Say Time is a great feature. This is the Top Of The Hour ID that Jukebox 92.7 WEPQ runs:

There are four separate elements in the ID. This is NOT programmed as a function...
Time Tease
Say Time
Time Tone
Station ID
All of this runs in just over 20 seconds.

The second audio file is a simple time announce between a promo and a weather forecast. plauri, this is where I inserted a :04 deadroll after the time announce so it sounds "cold voiced". (Thank you!)

This is a great example of what RadioDJ is able to do and why I keep pestering Marius about the Say Time function.
