You can assign one or more categories to a player to display specific content. That means the player only plays spots that have the same assigned category, such as a specific location or topic.
How location categories affect players
If you've assigned categories to your locations, this has the following impact on the player:
Players inherit the categories of their location.
If you move a player to another location, the categories of the previous location are replaced by the categories of the new location.
If you try to assign a category to a player that is already assigned to its location, the system will notify you.
You can ignore inherited categories for a player as described below. That means the location's categories are not assigned to the player.
