## Default Playlist

# Local Playlist State

1. Add a **Local** **Playlist** widget to your content in the center pane

3. Select a player and **Specify playlist** to assign certain players to play different presentations (in the image, one player is assigned to “Matt Local Playlist 1” while the other players in the group play the default playlist).
