  Grogster said  OK, thanks Jim, I will do that - please wait a day or so for me to compile.  

EDIT: I don't want to have to enter in playlist data manually at the command-prompt to keep VLC happy.  I need a GUI interface......


A ready made solution is best.

My thoughts were a text list for each day with start time and file name.
You have to create the list some how what-ever program you use.

A gui for drag and drop is simple enough if you are adverse to typing.

You have to decide the time of day for the first program and also for the last of the day.
Then how many weeks to run the playlist for before repeating.

Special day lists for Christmas etc?


The program I wrote for myself starts at 9am every Sunday and runs a maximum of 5 files. Not very adventurous but what I needed.
