Recognising special entries

A playlist does not only contain tracks. RemotePLE recognises the special entries of RadioBOSS and shows an own icon for each. When you select an entry, its kind is announced first, then name and directory. So you hear immediately what you are dealing with, without having to interpret the line itself.

Announced are:

- Track not yet played, already played and Currently on air: ordinary tracks and their state in the OnAir list.
- Jingle & co: a track from one of the jingle directories.
- Command: a control command for RadioBOSS.
- Network stream: an internet address, optionally with a duration.
- Line input: an input of the sound card.
- Time announcement: the automatic announcement of the time.
- Comment: a note that is not played.
- Hour marker: the marking of the start of an hour.
- Text to speech: a text that RadioBOSS reads out.
- Teaser: the announcement of a later track with a short excerpt.
- Container: a file whose entries are inserted at this point.
- Playlist: a playlist file as a single entry.
- Directory: all tracks of a directory.
- Other entry: anything that cannot be assigned to one of the kinds named above.

These details apply to the playlist and the OnAir list alike. The kind of entry also decides whether "Edit command" is available; see the chapter "Insert Commands".
