1. Click the SKIP button

or press the

key when the playlist is playing the

element before the one you want to skip.

As the event on-air is highlighted in dark green; and the next event to air in light green,
elements which will be skipped are located between these two highlighted lines.

2. Repeat step 1 as many times as you want elements to be skipped. If the SKIP button

is clicked twice, the next two elements will be skipped, and so on, as shown by the
highlight on the list moving to the next element each time.

Note
If the SKIP button is clicked within a loop, the SKIP function takes the loop into
account and elements played out remain inside the loop. This does not affect
the loop counter.
