Understanding Playlists
Playlists in Control Panel provide convenient groupings of tracks and control exactly how and when those tracks will be broadcasted.
Four playlist types are currently available:
-
General Rotation
General rotation playlists are the most common type of playlist, used to play a random selection of media from your library when no other, more specialized playlists are due to be played. -
Scheduled
Scheduled playlists are used for scheduled broadcasts such as daily countdowns, "top 10" lists, pre-recorded shows, and similar content. -
Interval
Interval playlists are used for station identification, advertisements, and other similar repeating content that needs to be played every few minutes or after every few tracks. -
Immediate
Immediate playlists allow tracks to be queued for immediate playback, and are useful for on-the-fly content such as song requests or special announcements.
