Need help with alias's not working #355

Closed ImDroided closed 6 years ago

ImDroided commented 6 years ago

So I have a issue I can't solve. I used the script linked elsewhere here to take my talkgroup csv from RadioReference.com and convert it ti the xml format. I inserted the output into playlist_v2.xml and the alias's show up under the alias tab. The issue is it will not display those on the now playing screen. Calls just show up as a talkgroup id. I am stumped on why this is happening. I noticed I have 3 and 4 letter talkgroups and the 3 letter ones show up with a 0 in front so A31 is displaying as 0A31 in the primary to field. But it isnt even displaying the 4 letter ones either. I know this is something stupid that I am missing here.

Here are some screenshots and a small sample of my playlist_v2.xml file I cut it down it has a ton of talkgroups

It looks like your channel configuration may be missing the aliaslist name. That's the final piece that tells the application to use all of your new aliases with calls produced by that channel.

Any links as to how to set that up? I have created a playback xml file and stuck the output in it. The playback then showed up in the channel tabs alias drop-down but nothing worked. Maybe I formatted it wrong.

I even added under the alias tab all the talk groups to a list in that first column and typed that list name in the alias part of the channel tab

Thanks for the reply.

I just redid the setup and it works now. It must not have liked the space in the list name. renamed it to just dupage and it works now. thanks.
