Advanced AutoPlaylist

When you create an AutoPlaylist, you have the option of creating an advanced AutoPlaylist based on your own personal list of specific clip information.

From the "New AutoPlaylist" wizard (see Create an Autoplaylist), selectCreate with rules (advanced). Define the AutoPlaylist selection rules based on details you choose — year of release, date the clip was created, date it was last played, whether it was saved with security on or off, and more.

Create an Advanced AutoPlaylist 

1. Click and select File > New > New AutoPlaylist. The "New AutoPlaylist" wizard opens.
2. Select Create with rules (advanced), then click Next to add and edit rules used to select clips.
3. Click Add. The "Clip Selection Rule" dialog opens.
4. Select a clip property in the Select clips by: drop-down list. (For example: Artist.) A list of criteria appears for that property. Check properties to use them as search items. Select the NOT box if you want to exclude the checked properties. Click OK to add this clip selection rule to your list.
5. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to create additional clip selection rules.
6. Click Next when you have added or edited all your selection rules.
7. Type the AutoPlaylist name.
8. Select or deselect settings under Options if you wish.
9. Click Finish.
10. RealPlayer creates your AutoPlaylist based on the rules and options you have selected. Matching clips are added at random until the mix time limit is reached, or all available matching clips are added.
