You are using one GROUP = MUSIC

Make a New Second GROUP [rdadmin > Manage Groups]

Call it AROTATE

Put the 5 CARTS in the AROTATE GROUP [Use RDLibrary and EDIT]

Make a new EVENT [RDLog Manager Top Option]

Call it "Play an A Rotate" and have it select a Cart from the AROTATE group

Then replace the MUSIC Event at :32 in the CLOCK you are using with
the new event.

Put the clocks in for a day or 2 or 3 or 5  and create a LOG

Then run the log.

If you have all the tracks in MUSIC and are using Scheduler Codes to
pick selections you wont get the result you want [ as you have found]

You have got the 5 songs on separate CARTS. If they are all on one
cart the play will be random. Over time they even out.

I am not in the right place to send you the screenshots that go with
this. You should be able to find your way there.

While the scheduler code feature is great for setting dayparts, genre,
tempo, and all the other flags you ever need on a title, the GROUPS
are the first way to distinguish songs for airplay.

RD will break or ignore scheduler codes.

The GROUP is carved in stone.

Hope this helps

Robert
