+==== Set up an Hourly Event for Automation ====
+In an automated environment, mAirList must load the playlist for the next hour automatically at the top of the hour. This is achieved by adding a (single) event to the Event Scheduler. Click //Events// in the main toolbar, and in the dialog that appears, click //Add// to add a new event.

+The event is configured so that it runs each day, each hour at 0 minutes and 0 seconds (see screenshot). In the //Actions// section, add a new //Load and play database playlist// action, and leave all of its settings untouched.

+That's it - at the top of the hour, mAirList will grab the next playlist from the database and play it. All you have to do is to turn on AUTO mode.
