Playlist - Display folder where item is stored

Hey!
Is it possible to display where the items in the playlist is stored? Ie. A,B,C Rotation, Chill, Upbeat folders.

Edit:
I am storing the items in virtual folders in the database… Example db here:
{1047995A-EB00-4D04-B369-59A8521C4D0F}

:slight_smile:

Edit: Misunderstood. You meant the playlist.

Was thinking maybe something like this?

Yes, okay. I would also be interested to see if that works. Unfortunately I don’t have mAirList to hand at the moment :sweat_smile:

The playout playlist GUI doest not have (direct/efficient) access to that information. unfortunately.

It’s a side-effect of mAirList’s “open” database design, which allows multiple concurrent database connections.

Thanks for the explanation, Torben!

Thanks, looking forward to it too!

A lot of things would be possible/easier if we had exactly one database to which the playout is connected.

But we would also lose a lot of flexibility.

Maybe a really stupid solution… but maybe this is something for you. If I understood correctly what you need.
For me it looks like this.

Because I ran into the same problem, I solved it by placing a dummy in the properties folder in the opener section. (for every virtual folder a it’s own dummy)
@Torben It would be helpful if we have the option in the Dummy>Playback>Options> Do not load in playout
Then we would see it in the database playlist, but not during playing in the playout.
Is that an option for you?
