scheduler_5

 

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 scheduler_7  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

scheduler_9

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.
