..just a small tip that really helps us...:

If you have multiple prints a house that uses a SONY setup, and after building the Master Playlist, relabel the playlist as such in the "properties":

01-Feature Title,
02-Feature Title,

et.al. ..

or, if doing Kid shows:

01-KID SHOW. Feature Title

or, ..

You can just use the "01" number prior to the feature title since the show titles are always different.

The "01" number gets the title right on top of the list so you won't have to hunt for it in the "Show Listing" screen, and/or get it confused with the "Feature-Film Title" sub playlist build which some can accidently start the feature here but, it it bypasses the macros and cues, and not play the trailer pak.

..hope this works for some. If already using this, or some other form that works per each location, then please disregard.

-thx Monte

I've been labeling mine with "*" at the beginning for the same reasons.
