Can a live channel be added to a playlist channel for scheduling play time?

I have a playlist where I believe I can schedule content to play each day through the month.  Now I need to add live channel content to the schedule. Can that live channel that I have be scheduled or added in to the playlist channel?

​@tsaucedo thank you for the additional question and details regarding scheduling your Live Channel content within a Playlist Channel.

Since this is related to the channel and device behavior you reported previously, your Customer Success Manager (CSM) will discuss this with you as well. They’ll review your current setup and requirements, including how you’d like the Live Channel content to be scheduled, and provide guidance on the available options.

Depending on the outcome of that discussion, if we feel the information or solution would be beneficial to the wider community, we’ll update this post with the relevant details.

That sounds good! 

I tried several things first Broadcast but for reason it was not playing or overriding the current scheduled playlist.  Next I tried the Change channel for the device at first it was not changing or playing it not sure why, I rebooted the device too.  I don’t know if it’s required or a coincidence but I added it to a group channel only then did it finally start playing. 

I definitely need to get it to where I can added it a schedule so it plays without manual intervention.  

Thamks.
