Media library

Where everything AutoDJ can play is kept.

Last updated September 20261 min read

The library holds the audio for one station: music, jingles, station IDs and recorded programmes. A playlist is a selection from it, not a second copy.

What is stored with a file

FieldWhere it comes from
TitleThe file's tags, or what you type.
ArtistThe file's tags, or what you type.
KindYou choose: music, jingle, station ID, programme.
DurationMeasured from the audio itself when it is uploaded.
Set the kind as you upload

It is the difference between a rotation you can shape and one long list of everything you own.

Deleting

Deleting a file removes it from every playlist that used it. If it is on air when you delete it, the current play finishes.
