   6\. Your media has been added to the playlist! The order you see the media listed in is the order in which it will be displayed on the screen. You can **click and drag** each item to rearrange the order. If available, you can also adjust the duration that a single piece of content will be displayed during the playlist sequence or schedule individual media components to display only within certain timeframes
