Scheduled stream relays
Have we considered an option to schedule a relay stream? Say for example you have your normal auto dj stream that plays out the songs in your library, but maybe you want to switch to another live stream for a few hours. The only way I see it working right now is to list the stream in sources and then schedule a playlist to play my songs. I think integrating stream sourcing into the playlist scheduler would be easier and increase flexibility as far as the number of streams we could host etc etc. I welcome thoughts...

Yukon Jack MergedI'd like to be able to use the Scheduler to schedule a Relay broadcast. When the schedule ends, the station would go back to AutoDJ or to the next scheduled event. As it is now, we have to manually start and stop a relay broadcast.

Audie SilcottAdding the ability to schedule relays should be a fundamental function. It is very convenient for owners and managers of stations to get more content going. Please add very soon!

Dawn MacBeing able to schedule a relay link would be amazing. It would certainly streamline things for producers who wish to air a relay link at a specific time.
A couple of things to note about the relay option:
1. When relay link is added, it does not start playing right away. I noticed a 30 minute delay before it started playing & once disconnected it continued to play even after it was deleted from the system.
2. It would be nice to have a scheduling feature so that relays can be scheduled to play at specific times and scheduled as an event like a playlist is. It could be offered as a scheduling option much like clockwheels and playlists are. This would make the process more automated and streamlined for producers. Otherwise, producers are left to manually administer the relay at will and this is cumbersome and not efficient. -
