Late start of playlist templates

Post by fredrich347 »

When "Late Start Loop Line" is enabled, and a playlist template program is started late, I noticed that it skips the LoadPlaylist line and directly goes for the Execute script line. I'm assuming this is intentional, even though the playlist template wizard doesn't default to ForceLateStartBeginning. However, when I disable "Late Start Loop Line" or use ForceLateStartBeginning, the LoadPlaylist line only rolls forward to a Time Update Sync. Is there a way for it to roll forward further?

I agree, that a newly created program scheduler entry based on a LoadPlaylist script should use the ForceLateStartBeginning option by default. I'll change that in the next version.

Regarding the Roll-Forward to the next TUS only. I can not really see that happening here.
Can you provide a .pfp plalyist file to check that here - maybe it is some other constellation I currently don't see.

Any News?
Else, can I assume that this issue is closed?

I assume it never happened again - as such, I am closing this issue.
