The scheduler first chooses a category by its weight, then chooses a slot inside that category using the slot's existing weight. Slots without a category use the Uncategorized bucket with weight 1 unless you define an uncategorized category below.
This channel keeps its own programming brief, operating mode, cooldown policy, and semantic preferences. The global master switch must also be enabled before scheduler ordering can apply.
Saved brief: Mirai is a dedicated anime channel targeting an audience interested in diverse, high-quality Japanese animation across multiple genres, but mostly giving off a sci-fi feel. The programming should feel curated and deep, appealing to long-term fans of serialized storytelling while maintaining energy throughout the dayparts.
The tone must be consistent with premium anime viewing—immersive, dramatic, and action-oriented. Pacing should vary naturally based on the content; for example, a more contemplative show can anchor the Day - Early Evening slot, while high-octane action is reserved for the Evening to Late Night block. Content priorities are maximizing exposure to the available catalog of critically acclaimed series, ensuring variety within each time block using the weighted shuffle approach.
This executive's mode is independent of every other channel. Advisory mode never changes scheduler ordering.
Only this channel can bypass slot item/time cooldowns and the cooldown-derived immediate same-show guard. All other scheduler safeguards remain enforced.
Scheduler rule bypasses (active modes only)
Ignore slot max_picks_per_20_items and max_picks_per_playlist limits.
Ignore day-of-week and daypart-gated slot eligibility checks.
Ignore time-of-day blocking and date blackout rules.
Optional behavior controls
Higher values allow transition preferences to reorder more of the normal shuffle ranking.
