Playlist/track filename or
command - Playlist, music track, or URL that will be
launched on the schedule.
This field can also contain one of the commands.
The Wizard
button may be used to help entering commands
or advanced playback options.
Task name - any string
that helps you to identify the event, and can also be left
blank.
Time and
Day
Here, you can specify the time and day of week when the track or
playlist should be launched.
Date and Time fields - specify the launch date
and time.
Hours - select the
hours, minutes, and seconds when you need an event to be launched.
To setup click the "..." button.
If the Date checkbox is
checked and Week days is
unchecked, the track will be launched only on the date specified.
If both Date and
Week days are checked, then
the date determines the start date - the event will launch on
selected days of week on the specified date and after that
date.
Week days – mark the
days of week when you want an event to start. This allows you to
make a schedule for a whole week.
Repeat
Repeat every [X]
minutes no more than [Y]
times - the task will be
launched a specified number of times after equal intervals. For
example, with the options set to repeat every 15 minutes no more
than 10 times, in this case the task will be executed at the
scheduled time (e.g. 01:05) and then 9 times after 15 minute
intervals (e.g. 01:20, 01:35, 01:50, ...).
Expiration
Delete task at - set the
task expiration time. At the indicated time, the task will be
removed from the list.
Options
Example picture - playlist with the
scheduled tracks and "Play above the air" track
|
Enabled event
|
Uncheck this box to temporarily disable the event
|
|
Do not action this event when
the playlist is stopped
|
If the playlist is not playing, the event will not launch
|
|
Run scheduled launch without
waiting for current track to finish
|
If this is turned on, the track/playlist will be played at the
time specified in the “Time” field. Otherwise it will be queued and
played after the current track is finished.
|
|
If there are tracks from the
schedule in the playlist, enqueue
|
If the playlist contains tracks scheduled for playback by
another event (tracks with a "clock" icon) - insert new entries
after them (after track #14 in the example picture). Otherwise, the
tracks will be inserted after the track being currently played
(after track #9 in the example).
|
|
Remove previous schedule from
the playlist
|
When the task is started, all the tracks scheduled earlier are
removed from the playlist. In the example, tracks #6-14 will be
removed from the playlist.
|
|
Clear playlist
|
The current playlist contents
will be removed.
|
|
Shuffle the playlist before
inserting
|
If the filename field contains a playlist name, this playlist
will be shuffled before inserting.
|
|
Do not delete scheduled tracks
from the playlist after playback
|
Usually, scheduled tracks are automatically removed from the
playlist after playback. Checking this option will prevent this
from happening and the tracks will be kept in the playlist.
This has some usable side effects:
|
·
|
Tracks won't be marked with the "clock" icon - instead they
will be marked as regular playlist tracks. |
|
·
|
The queuing options won't consider those tracks as scheduler
tracks, the options are: |
* If there are tracks from the schedule in the playlist,
enqueue
* Remove previous schedule from the playlist
|
|
Play above the air
|
If set, the track will be played above the air within its own
player, together with the playlist. You
can decrease the volume of the background music using the “music
level” slider below.
In the example, the "04 (4.6s)" track is played above the
air.
