Playlist

The playlist provides a filtered list of visuals that matches your media panel and tag selections. The playlist automatically play according to the Duration and Transition settings in the base layer.

This is where selected media is queued for live automated performance. It supports dynamic filtering, tag-based sorting, session-based tracking to prevent playing the same visual twice, and manual adjustments—giving you control over what plays, when, and how, whether you're improvising or executing a pre-planned set.

Typical operation is to let the playlist automatically switch and play visuals from the top down according to the Duration and Transition Time settings in the Base Layer.

Hover over a visual to get a preview if the Show Previews is enabled in Preferences.

Click on a row in the playlist to immediately transition to that video.

Use the Transport Controls in the Base Layer to play/pause and move up/down the playlist.

Apply

Click the checkmark to confirm and activate that refined playlist. If you enable quantization for this action, this playlist activation change can be locked to the phase of your music keeping the new playlist on beat and in sync with your music.
