I have a scheduling project that I can't seem to figure out.
I have 4 videos, all under 8 minutes each, and I want one video to play at every quarter of the hour. not every 15 minutes exactly but specifically on the quarter hour. Here is the idea:
Video 1 - Start at 9:00
Video 2 - Start at 9:15
Video 3 - Start at 9:30
Video 4 - Start at 9:45
Then that would repeat. At each start of the video I will use GPIO to trigger the AV system to turn on. I will need to put a delay in there but that is not the problem.
What I can't seem to figure out is how to schedule this without having to do some tedious layout in the scheduling tab.
I am testing using Time/Clock events. I can setup a clock event to run between certain times of day and then repeat the time out every 60 minutes. Here is what I am testing:
Initial state is a logo and there are 4 Time/Clock events set to periodic throughout the day.
Event 1 - 9:00-4:00 and then the interval between events is 60 minutes.
Event 2 - 9:15-4:15 and then the interval between events is 60 minutes.
Event 3 - 9:30-4:30 and then the interval between events is 60 minutes.
Event 4 - 9:45-4:45 and then the interval between events is 60 minutes.
It looks like this might work but I am just wondering what happens to the timing if the player does a reboot in the middle of the day or if we change out the videos and republish. Will the Brightsign still run at quarter of the hour properly?
