[RDD] More questions

["John Handelaar" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Me again :-)   Sorry if this is kinda irritating - on the
plus side none of the following is urgent.  

I'm sniffing around Rivendell because I'm involved with 
a lot of small scale and college stations in the UK 
(and quite a few commercials as well), and we're thinking 
about adopting it on a reasonably large scale for (eg) kit 
sales and the like.

So...

Q1   Can people use external schedulers like Selecter?
     If so, how?

Q2   Re: Burning CDs - lots of new stations prepopulate
     their music databases by buying in bundles of compilation
     CDs of the right genre and adding them *all* to the DB
     as recurrents.  Riv seems to only permit me to burn one
     track at a time - am I wrong?  Or might it be changed?

Q3   Is someone working on a manual?  If not, any help required?
     C programming may not be my thing but documentation could
     well be.

Q4   For streaming (and maybe RDS), getting the 'now playing' 
     data into an encoder is good.  Other apps often have a 
     'watch file' which puts now and next into a plain text file
     which can be parsed by third-party apps.  Do we have such a
     thing?

I'm sure there are others - these are just the ones that are coming
up at the moment when I show Rivendell to people here so far.

TIA and cheers for all so far
