Thank you ddtop and MrKlorox for your replies.
After total confusion with setting Breakaway One up they decided to go with a hardware processor. We had I/O Status errors and couldn't find a setting we'd made earlier through all the tabs and no support documentation so there was no way they were going to deal with this software.
i tried following along with Leif's videos on YouTube but as soon as you want to do something that is not what he is demonstrating you're on your own and again with no documentation you never know what you've set incorrectly that is causing an error or giving you results you are not expecting.
Great software with tons of options but without some guidance documentation a hardware box became the solution .. complete with a full manual! 🙂
Maybe I'll tackle the software again later.
Thanks again,
Scott
Hi Milky, Thanks for pointing that out.
I did a number of searches through these forums but most of my searches included the word "metadata" so your thread didn't turn up once.
Wouldn't it be nice if they had a manual with all these gems in it so we could exploit the great features the software has to use.
I'll explore more.
Regards,
ScottJoakim,
Thanks for your reply.
What I want to do is use the http capability in my playout software to send the metadata to Breakaway One to add to the stream.
Thanks to Mr. Telos, as I was chatting to them about an Axia issue I mentioned this issue as well and this is the response to get it working. Maybe they could write a manual 🙂
In my playout software I enter in its metadata for streaming section: http://IP address of Breakaway One:8282/parameter/hd1/strm/metadata_strm=Put Your Artist – Title Variables Here. Works perfectly.
if only there was some type of manual to support the great features of the software it would make it so much easier to achieve the outcomes you want from it.
Thanks again to those who offered suggestions.

Hi Timmy,
Thanks for your response.
I know I can use the text file option but in my situation I am better to use the URL but I can't even find any documentation about what port to use.
Is there no PDF or HTML manual for this software?
I notice in a post by Leif on April 19th 2018 when asked about a manual he replied.
quote :We're writing one. But, if a manual is absolutely critical for you, I'd hold off on purchasing until it's actually out.I am guessing that 13 months later there is still no manual?
