Time Play Mode

I think I have mentioned this before but I am sure that if implemented this would be a massive USP for eJukebox. Ok heres a scenario....

Every weekday evening I get home from work tired, depressed, dejected (cue violins!) and I get eJukebox to play all my classical and ambient music. Friday and Saturday evening I queue up all my pop, rock and dance.

Now the above scenario is an obvious trend but I am certain there are others that eJukebox could pick up.

I would imaging a time/day v genre and time/day v artist would be awesome - so I could come home and either get eJukebox to play popular genre or artist for the day or for the time.

How about it folks - you know you want it :D

A schedule function right? Which could do everything from rebuilding your database at a user definable moment. To go into certain play modes at specific moments? An exellent concept.. +1 Fully support it :)

The simplest "scheduling" is probably just when to play versus not. Sort of... a "sleep timer". That could be a first step if the whole product getting a schedule function means a long development cycle.

Then, stuff like time-of-day playing could be a 2nd level added on later, and playing specific "filters" at certain times of day a final 3rd level.

Of course, another benefit of breaking this idea down into multiple steps like this is that potential expansions of how to handle genres have been mentioned elsewhere on this board, and I hope that's developed a bit before more elaborate scheduling in chained/tied to it.

Given anymore thought to a scheduler? I also would like to schedule differant playlists or genres by day of the week/time as I use my jukebox alot as if it were my own personal radio station with shoutcast.

it loads 100%, the skin show up but just for one second, then it disappears and ejukebox.exe ends maybe 20 seconds later.

Great! Yes I can add more Actions
Shutdown at 23:30 will be possible

can you fix your forum footer so it doesn't take up so much height?
There is a huge blank space under the dotted line

How about the ability to sort the columns in the scheduler? It would be especially nice on the start column.
Also unrelated to the scheduler the list profile would be nice if it sorted in A-Z order.
