Live365 users: how does your playout software handle DMCA rotation rules?

I created a radio automation system for macOS and recently added DMCA Rotation Control — a mechanism that controls how frequently the same artist can appear, both during automatic music scheduling and manual on-air operation.

I have a question for those using Live365 with external automation/playout software: what software do you use, and how does it handle DMCA rotation restrictions?

Does your system enforce these restrictions automatically, or do you have to manage them manually?

I’m interested in understanding how this is handled in other automation systems and how it works in real-world broadcast workflows.

What radio automation system are you using, and what would you change about it?

Hi everyone,

I'm an independent developer building P-Layer, a radio automation system for macOS.

P-Layer is designed for internet radio stations, community broadcasters, and smaller FM stations. It includes music scheduling, clock-based programming, voice tracking, commercial breaks, jingles, live assist, and playlist automation.

Website: https://p-layer.app

I'm interested in learning more about the tools and workflows that broadcasters use every day.

- What radio automation system are you currently using?

- What do you like about it?

- What frustrates you the most?

- Which features or workflows feel outdated?

- If you could improve one thing in your current automation software, what would it be?

I'd love to hear feedback from both internet radio operators and traditional broadcast stations.
