How can I schedule my content in XOGO Manager?

Updated over a month ago

XOGO Manager offers two scheduling methods to help you manage when and how your content displays.

Method 1: Advanced Scheduling

Advanced Scheduling allows you to control when specific items within a playlist are allowed to play.

How to Use:

  1. Click inside any playlist

  2. Click the blue "Schedule" button

  3. Set the days and times for each item to display

Example Use Case - Restaurant:

  • Breakfast menu: Display until noon daily

  • Lunch menu: Display from noon to 6pm

  • Dinner menu: Display from 6pm onwards

  • Brunch menu: Display all day on Saturdays

Note: Scheduling gaps are indicated in the UI by a triangular alert icon on the playlist.

Method 2: Playlist Planner

Playlist Planner allows you to schedule when players switch between different playlists on specific calendar dates.

How It Works:

Each XOGO Player runs one playlist at a time, but you can schedule playlist changes for specific dates.

Example Use Case - Retail Store:

  • Default playlist: Runs until late August

  • Back-to-school playlist: Activates in late August

  • Christmas playlist: Activates on December 1st

Understanding the Difference:

  • Advanced Scheduling (Micro Level): Schedule individual content items within a single playlist based on time of day

  • Playlist Planner (Macro Level): Schedule entire playlist changes based on calendar dates
