A Composite Playlist is a display layout that divides a single screen into multiple synchronized zones, with each zone playing its own playlist, web source, app, or HDMI input. Unlike a simple playlist that runs one piece of content at a time, a composite layout supports parallel content streams arranged in a coherent visual composition.
The composite model is the foundation of multi-zone, picture-in-picture and ticker layouts: a main video area combined with a side panel, a news ticker, a clock or weather widget, and an interactive zone. Each zone has its own scheduling logic and can be updated independently.
