Hi
I am starting to think I am asking Radio boss cloud to do something it wont do!
Its a simple situation but so far no one seems to be able to help me so I thought I would post and see if any other users have the same issue it is a basic simple problem!
OK I have a number of folder one for each decade so 60 7080 90. So far so good.I created a playlist called it auto dj. I then set about adding items to it by adding two or three 60s same for 70 80s etc withj station id or jingle in between . This is teh main playlist that functions like an auto dj selecting random tracks from each of the decade folders. When it gets to the bottom of the list it returns to the top and repoeats . Its been doing that for almost 3 years now!
So I would like to in effect create a similar playlist but just selecting songs from lets say 80s. so I worked on a similar idea two or three random selections then a jingle two more tracks followed by a station id. In the sheduler I asked it to play that playlist at lets say 8 am fine . I made sure the option that deletes tracks once played did not have a tick in it so once played it would delet the entry in the playlist. Once it gets to the end of the list it has no more tracks of course. I want it to rotate and continue to keep selecting random songs for maybe an hour. The station Id Commercials etc are on seprate rotations and all function fine. My problem is getting the new 80s playlist to loop. Ok I could add lots on select randon track entries but how do I know how many I will need for an hour. I tried adding about 20 tracks and setting the time out to 3600 seconds hoping it would stop and be thrown back to the main Auto dj playlist but it didnt.
Hope you can understand my description I have been advised to read the scheduler info sorry that doesn't cover what I am asking. Ive looked on YouTube cant find anything useful. Ive tried about 4 times over the last year and now starting to think its time to ditch radioboss cloud if it isn't capable of this simple request.
I hope I'm doing something wrong and likewise would be very very grateful if someone has a solution. Many thanks
Kind regards Mike
