Track start at out of previous track

Post by Bart ve »

Hi
I have in my playlist-scripts some info-blocks. I'd like to start them not with next of previous track, but with "out" (end) of previous track. Is this somehow possible pls? Now those infotracks start with next, and often you can than not well hear the info track. Ty. Gr. Bart

The next track always starts with the Next cue-point! Except there is no Next cue-point, in such case it starts with the Out cue-point (and if that is also missing it starts with the natural end of the previous track).

However you have 2 possibilities:
a) don’t use a Next cue-point on those info tracks! If the Next cue-point is missing, the next track will start with the Out cue-point
b) set the Next cue-point accordingly, ie. adjust it so it starts the next track accordingly!

Thank you, B. However, in my playlist-script there is a rondom music track that in some lines is followed by an info track. I don't know wich track will be selected before the audio track. So i think i can't use your solution?

When the script-line it is followed by an info block, you might set the 'ClearAllCuePoints' and 'SuppressACPD' script-line option... else, it is not possible to overwrite or change the Next cue-point...
