What is the difference between soft delete and hard delete in the playout log?

When you delete items from the playout log in PlayIt Live, there are two different types of deletion available. Soft delete is the default method - when you click the bin/trash button, the item remains in the playout log but is marked as deleted and won't play. This allows you to restore the item later by clicking the Restore button if needed.

Hard delete permanently removes the item from the playout log entirely. To perform a hard delete, hold CTRL while clicking the bin/trash button. Once an item is hard deleted, it cannot be restored and is completely removed from the log.
