The Playlist widget

Plays one of your media playlists — an ordered mix of uploaded images, videos and documents — and where the playlist itself is edited.

Updated 19 Aug 2026

A slideshow of uploaded media — images, videos, documents — played in the order the playlist says. The playlist is a thing of its own, built once and reusable, so five screens can play the same rotation and a change to the playlist reaches all of them.

On the main stage a playlist counts as playback: a scene rotation suspends its timer while it plays rather than cutting media off mid-item.

What this does not control

  • What is in the rotation. The items, their order and how long each stays belong to the playlist itself — edit the playlist and every screen playing it follows.
  • Its size and colour. The design-wide settings apply as everywhere — media widgets ignore the font size — see Widgets and the places they go.
