Updating the content on the card
The contents of the card can be automatically updated using the 'Update content' task (see
. This updates the playlists as well as the audio tracks on the card for Fallback, Store-and-
Forward and Commercials and Announcements. When the Lisa executes the 'Update content' task, it
will download the necessary information from the Content update URL, generate the playlists and
download the tracks that are required but not present.
The 'Update content' task will only work if the Content update URL (in the configuration of the Lisa)
points to a platform that supports this, for example ADP.
