How to get a random Stinger or Transition segment

Question

I can not select a Music Playlist Container as a Stinger or a Transition segment for my music.

How can I randomize my stingers or transition segments?

Answer 1

Selecting a Music Playlist Container as a Stinger or a Transition segment is indeed not possible.  However, you can make a Segment with a random track:

• Create a Music Segment
• Create a Music Track in the segment
• Right-click on the Music Track header, and Select Random Step as the type
• For each variation you want, right-click on the Music Track header on the Music Segment Editor, and select Add Sub-Track
• Import the content you want on each of the sub-track variations you created

This segment can then be used as a Music Stinger or a Transition Segment.
