Yes, you can use playout policies to prevent tracks from playing within specific time periods. PlayIt offers two types of playout policies for this purpose:

Track/Artist Separation Playout Policy allows you to set minimum time periods before the same track, artist, or song title can be played again. You can configure separate time limits for each (e.g., tracks can't repeat for 2 hours, artists for 1 hour). This applies across your entire schedule and works with any track groups you specify.

Daypart Separation Playout Policy prevents tracks from repeating within specific dayparts (like breakfast or drive time shows) for a set number of days. This ensures regular listeners won't hear the same songs during their usual listening times. This feature requires the Advanced Scheduling module.

To set up playout policies, go to Manage > Playout Policies in PlayIt Live, click Add New, choose your policy type, and configure the separation times. You can apply policies to all tracks or specific track groups, and the scheduler will automatically respect these rules when selecting tracks.
