Hi Christopher,
If having a top-of-the hour track played is prioritary then you should
probably use a track insensitive switch (or fallback) to make sure
that track is always played first.
Something on these lines:
normal_stream = (...)
special_id_stream = (...)
def when_to_play_special_id_stream() =
(...)
end
# Switch
stream = switch(track_sensitive=false, [
(when_to_play_special_id_stream, special_id_stream),
({true}, normal_stream)
])
Hope this makes sense..
