Summary

Interrupt current playback on the Rasp-Cast server by playing either a single track or multiple tracks immediately.

Inputs

  • Mode (required) — Choose whether to interrupt playback with a single track or multiple tracks.
  • Source Type (required) — Select if the single track is a local file or a remote URL (only for single track mode).
  • File Path (required) — Provide the relative path to the MP3 file on the server when interrupting with a single local file (shown only if Source Type is 'File').
  • URL (required) — Provide the remote MP3 URL when interrupting with a single track from a URL (shown only if Source Type is 'URL').
  • Title — Track title for the single track; if omitted and the source is a file, it will attempt auto-detection from ID3 tags.
  • Artist — Track artist for the single track; if omitted and the source is a file, it will attempt auto-detection from ID3 tags.
  • Tracks — Add one or more tracks for interrupt playback when mode is set to multiple; each track must specify source type (File or URL), and the corresponding path or URL, with optional title and artist.
