Basically what I'm trying to do is mix two auto-playlists into a mixer Playlist so that I get 50% Australian content and 50% overseas(imported) content in the final playout.

However, what is happening is I'm getting tracks and artists repeating ad infinitum.

Also how do I prevent the tabs repeating themselves all the time?

Can someone point me in the right direction please, any help appreciated

Try adding "Last played is not in the last 30 days"

[EIDT] OK I can see that you have already figured out this next part, although your "limit to 8"  is a bit low!

Also experiment with making TWO separate auto-playlist, each one configured to meet the criteria of your choice. Then you could feed both into a playlist mixer, and have full control of output..

Thanks Freddy Barker.
I added that extra criteria, increased track count from 8 to 16. But it was still repeating tracks.

I think It may have been something to do with having multiple instances of the playlist and mixer tabs open, as since I closed them and restarted, Now playing has been following the Mixer playlist.

Is there an option somewhere that I can set so that MB won't open multiple instances of the same playlist?
