What is a condition?
A condition can be added to each asset determining which player or players it will either play on or not play on. Each condition set will match a tag given to the player within its player settings.
Why do I need conditions?
Using Conditions on the Media Playlist Assets within your Playlist can simplify how you Schedule and Publish your content. You can Publish one Playlist to be shown on all your Players, however, the content within can be set to show on one, some or all those Players by using Conditions.
How do I apply Conditions to my Playlist media assets?
You can add conditions to any of the assets within your playlist. To add a condition to an individual asset, follow these simple steps:
- Create a new or open an existing playlist
- Add asset/s to the playlist area
- Double click to access an asset's properties or click on the three dots to the right of the asset to open the same menu.
- Select the Conditions Tab
- Select the following Conditions to make the asset play on:
- All Players - no conditions will be applied (default option)
- Players Matching all tags below - Asset will only play on Players that have all the matching tags applied
- Players Matching any tag below - Asset will play on any Player with at least one matching tag applied
- Players not matching all tags below - Asset will not play on Players that have all the matching tags applied
- Players not matching any tag below - Asset will not play on Players with at least one matching tag applied
- Enter at least one tag into the text area to match the selection made above. (As you enter the Tags, you will be presented with a diminishing list of Tags already in use)
