hello
I have a question for you. Is it possible to retrieve the stereo tool from txt file to rds song title and the doer? I would add that the file I generated from the issuance program on the local disk. If so, how? Thank you for your response

This is from the Help Menu link above:

Including dynamic texts
Dynamic texts can be used to include all kinds of changing information in your RDS texts. For example the name of the song that's currently playing, the current temperature, the weather forecast, you name it.

Stereo Tool enables you to include this type of data, as long as you can make the text available in a file. If you have that, there are 4 ways of including data from a file into your RDS text:
\R"C:\Filename.txt"
Reads raw (unformatted) text from C:\Filename.txt, converts it to capitals, and inserts it here in the RDS text.

\r"C:\Filename.txt"
Similar to \R, but does not convert the text to capitals. So - if your input file contains lower case characters - chances are that some radios won't display (parts of) the text.

\F"C:\Filename.txt"
Reads formatted text from C:\Filename.txt, converts it to capitals, and parses it as if it were a part of the filled-in RDS text. So any special characters (<, ||, : etc.) are used for formatting.
Only use this if you know what you are doing, unexpected special characters in the file can lead to unexpected behavior.

\f"C:\Filename.txt"
Similar to \F, but does not convert the text to capitals. So - if your input file contains lower case characters - chances are that some radios won't display (parts of) the text.
Unless you are doing special things, you should only need \R.

Example:
POWER-FM/PLAYING/\R"C:\NowPlaying.txt"

Because song names can be long, you'll probably want to use the word wrapping and scrolling trick described above:
6s:POWER-FM/1.5s,1=1s,2..-2=2t,-1=1s:||<NOW PLAYING \R"C:\NowPlaying.txt" ON

No, sorry. That would require knowledge of language (which is also different for different languages).

the idea is to divide the long names of performers. Airomate program has options. I enclose pictures HVZ

something that would be helpful for me is to make it replace the hyphen (-) in the song name with a space, i need this because i basically use my shoutcast as a source to feed the transmitter. it's not a big deal, but it would be nice

http://help.stereotool.com/7.40/fm_transmitter.shtml , search for "Including dynamic texts".

You just type this where you type your normal RDS texts (PS and RT).
