Hi I'm new to Liquidsoap (but not Airtime, which uses it or a variant of 
it…been running that for 6 months or so on a station called Radio Clash Live).

Currently trying to switch to a programmed auto-DJ solution because I'm having 
major problems with Airtime 2.4 and fed up of scheduling shows basically….which 
is working well in a basic level (currently the stream is doing this) on a 
switch. I have many shows and music files all in separate directories, and the 
playlists are coming from those directories - kind of in genre subfolders.

What I want to do is combine some of the playlists together in Liquidsoap, 
because sometimes I want to play all types of a genre of show, sometimes, only 
one genre, but unless I duplicate files in folders that isn't possible? Rather 
avoid using PLS/M3U lists because this is on a headless VPS and that sort of 
thing is a real faff to do without a GUI.

e.g.

fiftypoundtalk = 
playlist(mode="random",reload=3600,"/home/shows/featuredshows/50poundnote/talk")
radioclashtalk = 
playlist(mode="random",reload=3600,"/home/shows/featuredshows/radioclash/talk")

I'd like to add 'fiftypoundtalk' to 'radioclashtalk' to an 'alltalk' playlist 
and randomly select from the whole playlist rather than alternate like this:

talkafternoon=rotate(weights = 
[1,1,1],[mypromos,myfiftypoundtalk,myradioclashtalk])

which is what I'm doing currently.

I've looked all over and not found a solution (I'm sure it's easy when you know 
how, or know what to google for!) I have to say the Liquidsoap documentation on 
the website is a little scant…I see you can add items to a playlist - that's 
what I'm doing for sweepers as per a script from Voisses Tech - can you add 
playlists/sources together? I'm guessing it's not as simple as playlist1 + 
playlist2 ?

Thanks
