Playlist feature #65

Closed Gary202 closed 5 years ago

Gary202 commented 5 years ago

When will the playlist feature be added for videos and pictures for the load screen??

tofuSCHNITZEL commented 5 years ago

I'm quite busy at the moment. what do you mean with pictures for the load screen? You mean a picture at startup or between the videos?

What features do you expect from a playlist which you can't already do by e.g. Naming the files?

Gary202 commented 5 years ago

Yes the picture for the load screen. and play list like play files a,b,c on Monday and play files d,e,f, on Tuesday. I thought this feature was in the works??

No, a schedular is not planned at the moment. you can grab the script I made for my deployments which tries to hide as much as possible from the rpi boot and also tries to install a loading screen. you can grab it here:

it will also disable wifi and BT so read through it and maybe remove stuff you don't want or need
