What's inside
Refresh on-screen promotional and informational content and update playback schedules; run this when a new campaign is ready or at the start of the weekly rotation.
Playlists contain outdated slides and videos and the schedule still follows the previous rotation with incorrect time-of-day targeting.
Incoming assets arrive in mixed formats and filenames that don't match CMS requirements, causing upload errors; schedules must be adjusted per location which requires multiple manual assignments.
Active playlists show the updated, correctly formatted assets and the schedule reflects the new rotation and location-specific time slots.
