Working with Shuffle in Digital Signage

Shuffle

Mix slides from several playlists in the ratio you choose.

About

Shuffle mixes slides from several playlists in one schedule, in a ratio you choose. For example: 2 slides from your corporate playlist, 1 from the local store playlist and 5 from your advertisers, then over again. Shuffle remembers where it is in each playlist, so every slide gets its turn.
