Re: Adjusting playlist

What is your "Load Next Mode" for the playlist?
In your case it should be set to "From Beginning"!
The "Next Mode" can be configured either in the general settings, section 'Playlist Settings' or in the playlist ribbon tab called 'playlist' when clicking on the 'Settings' button.
I just made a quick test here and it worked as expected.
All DJ Players have been loaded with a track and A is playing:
1. A, Track A (playing)
2. B, Track B (cued)
3. C, Track C (cued)
4. -, Track D
...
Now (having 'Follow' being turned off) I moved a Jingle to the playlist position following DJ Player A, like this:
1. A, Track A (playing)
2. -, Jingle
3. B, Track B (cued)
4. C, Track C (cued)
5. -, Track D
...
Once Track A (in DJ Player A) finished, Track B (in DJ Player B) started to play.
Once Track A (in DJ Player A) was ejected, the Jingle was loaded to A, like this:
1. *, Track A
2. A, Jingle (cued)
3. B, Track B (playing)
4. C, Track C (cued)
5. -, Track D
...
Now, once Track B (in DJ Player B) finished, the Jingle (in DJ Player A) started to play.
This behaviour seems to be fully correct and is exactly like you described it.
As such, your "Next Mode" setting might not be set to "from Beginning"?
