I'm trying to use a list to play commercial breaks. Using shortcuts and triggers, I can currently preview a color (black) input, when it goes to program, it triggers the commercial list input with a 500ms delay (to allow fade to black before the spot plays) and lowers the audio mixer. The spot plays from the list, and when completed, fades back to preview (cameras) and turns the audio mixer back up. This works well.

The problem is that I'm unable to get the list to advance to the next commercial break in the list after playback. I've tried the "select next list item" (or whatever it is...not at the system) as well as several other things, but no luck.

I'm also having a similar problem with a list of music beds... after playback I can't get it to stop and go to the next bed.

An alternative would be to have a different input for each commercial break, but using a list would be MUCH easier to manage. Any ideas?

That was it. I was using the next playlist item, and of course, a list and the playlist aren’t the same thing. Thanks!
