Recurring
Schedules
Choose either Preserve Exiting Schedules or Overwrite Existing Schedules. This
option is only for user-generated schedules; this option is not for imported playout
schedules.
Preserving Existing Schedules keeps any content that is currently scheduled for the
day and channel you selected and only fills in the empty timeslots. Overwrite
Existing Schedules overwrites any content that is currently scheduled for the day and
channel you selected.

Selection
Choose either the Use Suggester option or the Use Select Box option.
Use Suggester displays a text box for selecting content, and Use Select Box displays
a drop-down list. If there are a large number of content objects, the Use Suggester is
the preferred choice.
• If Use Suggester is selected, as you type in the text box, content matching the text
is displayed in a list. If you click Search, The Content List window is displayed
with the following options:
–
Quick Lists—Click Most Recent Ingests, and the 25 most recently ingested
content objects are listed.
–
Browse Content—Click a character in the Browse Content section, and all
content objects beginning with that letter are listed.
–
Content List—Displays the results of the Search, the Quick List, or the
Browse Content selection. The content name and ingest time are listed.
You can select a content object from the Content List, or select Close in the
upper-right corner of the window and start your search again.
• If Use Select Box is selected, use the down arrow of the drop-down list to display
the list and select the content object.
