Edit Track Set Separation Playout Policy Window
Track Set Separation Playout Policies ensure that any track in the same set (track group, tag, or filter) is not played again for a specified period of time. This policy is useful for ensuring variety within specific categories of content.
Track Set Separation requires the Advanced Scheduling module. Start a free two-week trial from within PlayIt Live via Help > Licensing Information.
Separation Time
Use the up and down arrows to change the minimum number of hours or minutes that should pass before any track in the selected set is played again. Use the dropdown to change the time unit.
Set Type and Selection

- Track Group: Select a track group to use all the tracks within that group as the set.

- Custom Filter: Click Select filter... to choose a custom filter. The filter interface is the same as creating a Filtered Track Group.
