Does anyone know if the Play Counter is incremented by the Aux Log?

We have two services being scheduled from one machine and the
observation is; some songs are appearing all too often in the one we
play from the Aux 1 slot.

Format 1 and Format 2 each draw from the same library, with some songs
unique to each format.

There is plenty of variety available, but before hunting elsewhere I
just want to tick this box.

May we have to set up two playout machines with the two formats in the
main log?

The scheduling works extremely well to allocate plays across the
library, some mysql checking shows we have, over a year or so, achieved
a similar number of plays for each song in a given GROUP, DAYPART etc.

I accept and enjoy the high repetition of new songs added to the library
until they catch up with the others, and every now and then after a
reorganisation we set all counters to zero which turns up all sorts of
surprises.
