# Straight to playback

AXIS Presentation Manager has an Administrative option to enable certain asset types to launch straight into playback when they are selected by a user, bypassing the Item Details page in the Apps.

> [!WARNING]
> **Compatibility notes:** This functionality is available from AXIS Presentation Manager 10.0 onwards, and in the Deltatre apps from v1.5 (Roku v1.2, and Apple v1.1).

Upon selecting content, if configured, App users are directed straight to content playback, bypassing the Item Detail page. This development is designed to get App users to live content more quickly and seamlessly.

The EPG1, EPG3, CH1, CH2, CHD1 and CHD2 rows support straight to playback, which can be configured as on or off for Channels, Programs and Movies, and is always true for live content.

## To configure straight to playback

To configure this, there is a property in *ADMIN* > *Settings* > *System* > *Playback* entitled *Live Straight To Playback*, where it can be Enabled or Disabled. When set to enabled, it allows channel, program and movie assets to use this functionality.
