  • Automatic Update Mode: Options are:

    • Full: Merges the playlist in its current state in Viz Channel Branding with changes that have been made to the original source file.

    • Times: Updates primary event begin time and duration, and any changes made to the original source file. Any primary event additions or deletions are ignored. Only the times are updated.

    • Full update without event deletion: Merges the playlist in its current state in Viz Channel Branding with changes that have been made to the original source file, without deleting any (primary) elements.

  • Delete Processed Files (days old): Enter the number of days after which processed playlist files (*.done) will be deleted.

  • Clear played older than (hh:mm): When updating the playlist, primary and secondary events that have not been played and are older than the time entered in this option are removed.

  • Clear unplayed older than (hh:mm): Same as previous option but will perform the validation against unplayed elements too.

  • Allow updates for a running playlist: When checked, playlists that are currently active will be updated. When unchecked, only playlists that are not playing will be updated.

  • If ‘Date’-mapping is blank retrieve date from running playlist: When checked, an attempt will be made to find the date from the running playlist when “Date”-mapping is blank.

  • Create playlist if one does not exist: If you update a playlist that does not have an existing date, the playlist will be created/imported for you.

  • Lock edited pages against replacement on updates: any secondary event originating from a schedule that has been manually edited via the Client is optionally skipped during next update.
