Fixtime items shuffles in playlist.

[Erris]

Hi,

Does someone can explain why my fixtime items are still shuffled in the playlist? is th eplaylist at random or is it from the script it goes random.

Can you explain, what you mean by shuffled in a bit more detail.
I have never heard of something like this, nor can I reproduce it!

The only thing which can happen is, that a FTE is moved up or down a little depending to the recent, effective play-out.
Note, that an FTE is bound to a certain time, e.g. 15:20h - as such, if your tracks play shorter or longer in your playlist (e.g. while playing them manually or moderating in live-assist mode), it might be, that the FTE position is moved up/down one playlist position, in order to still align with its Fixed-Time in real-time. This is by design and effectively 'wanted'.
But I have never seen it being shuffled.

Well it is like this. i have 4 rows 1 jingle 1 song 1jingle 1 hour opener, now the fun is that when the playlist is running, i gret standard the same order but when one player is done the whole bunch move zo like 1 jingle 1 hour opener, 1 song 1 jingle. so lets say player B is on the jingle that is oke by FTE it wil run but whem player a is done the whole bunch shuffles again and player is starting the second jingle and not the song. bit frustrating

I am sorry, but I can hardly follow your example.
What is the FTE in your example?
And is this a manual playlist or a scheduled playlit?
What are your AutoPlay setting, ie.: Follow On/Off?; Preserve On/Off?
Maybe you can post some screenshots?
