    Should playlists within playlists work? They never seem to start playing for me.

    I've tried with one composed of three approximately one hour long playlists, one
    that included a single 40 minute playlist and one that contained just a
    single-song playlist. They never go on-air even though show up in scheduler
    with correct times etc.

    Other than that 1.0 has been working quite well for me, I haven't really noticed
    appreciable delays when starting playback. Smile Has anyone gone live with
    LiveSupport yet? In my case I've decided to wait until smart playlists become
    available since I have a lot to do anyway before my music library is ready for
    broadcasting and that's a feature which would help a great deal.

    did you also try through the GUI?

    are you using 1.0 final? did you have a LiveSupport installatio before
    1.0 final on the same machine?

    I ment: if you could try not to schedule the same playlist, but play it
    in the GUI, and see if the same problem persists..

    are you sure the database was totally dropped before 1.0 was installed?
    (there was a database structure change, and we experienced this issue
    earlier if the database structure was not updated...)

    note to Ferenc: can you please check if this is related to the 'inline
