Sure Bert, glad to help here’s the link :
https://www.dropbox.com/s/u5ofe0c6du8s848/rdstranslator_0.60.zip?dl=0Make sure you don’t overwrite your INIs with mine that are included, since Leif used them to debug.
And if you are using the RT part of the exe (RDS_Translator_RT.exe) just copy the RDS_Translator.exe on to it, they are exactly the same!ok.. all fixed!
Thanx to Leif of course…
All you need to do is set it on Edit Box and after a bit it starts working on its own since RDS_Translator pushes the service to BA1… Actually no need for anything!
But… My problem existed long ago and that’s why this whole thing started, the problem was that it wasn’t updating the artist/title correctly for like 3 years now and since Leif had some time to spare now, I shared the screen with him and he couldn’t believe his eyes!
It was a bug, well maybe not an actual bug, but it seemed that although the dropbox was updating the file correctly “CurrentSong.txt” that RDS_Translator was reading from, it was changing the modified date and RDS_Translator was looking for that change in order to update!
So Leif recompiled RDS_Translator and now all is working perfectly again!
🙂 one happy guy 🙂Yes I’ve done that Milky already… It’s not working, it shows that text context on the RDS.
Unfortunately I believe only Leif knows what should be there, as there are no instructions.no ots interaction at this level…
I have certain txt files that the RDS_Translator reads from and puts it on there, including CurrentSong.txt which contains artist and title of course that get picked up from OTS of course at an earlier stage in the process…
No scheduled task or anything…
Its all done with RDS_Translator, I can paste the .ini file in here so you can get an idea, but in the edit box entry of BA1 it had something with << etc, I never kept it, stupid me!
Here’s the .ini file:

And this forum doesn’t support uploading an image either so I could show you a bit more.
Are you familiar with the RDS_Translator that he created?
Thru that, I had a bunch of other stuff that was getting displayed on the RDS, via txt files.
For example, station ID, some other comments, weather information etc.Yes Milky, it was a “complicated” setting that was working in there and accidentally got overwritten when I changed Edit/Box – File/URL dropdown…
It was pulling the data from the RDS_Translator in there, unfortunately there is no documentation and actually I got here by Googling my problem… Didn’t even know this forum existed 🙂
