Playlist Manager

After creating your pages, you may want to put a sequence of them together, either as an attractor for an interactive system, or for your passive digital project. After selecting the Playlist Manager from the Main Menu, you will be asked to choose your project.

Once you have done so, you will see the screen below.

Key

  1. Playlist Groups: To help manage large projects, you may wish to group similar playlists together. To do so, right-click in this window and select ‘Add Group’ for a new top-tier, or ‘Add Sub Group’ to create a second or third tier. You can then ‘drag and drop’ playlists into this new group from the ‘All Playlists’ window. Note that any playlists which have not yet been added to a group will be held in the ‘Ungrouped’ group.
  2. Add Playlist: Select this option to add a new playlist. Provide a name for the playlist and press OK to create it.
  3. Copy Playlist: After highlighting a playlist(s), clicking this will make a duplicate copy with a new name you choose. If you have selected a number of playlists to copy, the words ‘Copy of’ will be placed in front of each of them and you will need to rename them if required by right-clicking and choosing ‘Rename Playlist’
  4. Edit Playlist: Select this option to edit an existing playlist (first you must select the playlist that you wish to edit in the Playlist Window).
  5. Delete Playlist: This option is used to delete playlists (first you must select the playlist(s) that you wish to delete in the Playlist Window).
  6. Preview: To view the chosen playlist in the player, choose this option. Note that Page jumps and similar actions will operate, and you are able to jump to specific dates and times or to skip through the pages in the playlist.
  7. Snapshot: At any time, you are able to create a snapshot of all the playlist in the project as a backup in case you wish to make changes or check historically back to earlier playlists. All the files are compressed and stored as a .ZIP format file in the chosen Playlists folder, named with today’s date
  8. Advanced: If these options have been purchased then the user has the option of using one of three Playlist tools. These are: Playlist Merger; where two Playlists can be mixed together to form a separate Playlist, Playlist Viewer; where a list of pages (in order of playing) or a Gantt chart can be generated and Playlist Randomiser; where the lines in a playlist are mixed up and a new Playlist is generated.
  9. Edit: Edit your selected playlist.
