what is the difference and the practical use between generating an automatic playlist, and that of generating a playlist and saving the various files then recallable ??

What is the most correct and correct method to use?
What's the advantage of generating many time playlists in * .m3u8 files (01.m3u8; 02.m3u8; 03.m3u8 ....) and then recall them with the scheduler command ...
Is it not easier to generate a playlist based on the chosen preset and broadcast it?

When creating a large playlist, or when using a slow network drive, or for some other reasons, creating a playlist can take significant amount of time, like 10+ minutes. In this case it makes sense to create a playlist in advance to make sure it exists when it's time to launch it.

It always creates playlists based on presets. Sometimes playlists are created for a week in advance, and then are reviewed by radio station editor - for instance. Or for some other purposes.

There's really no single correct way - it that was the case, we'd only offer only that instead of multiple options.
