Xschedule on Mac
« on: November 27, 2018, 05:23:54 PM »
So I upgraded to the newest version of the software .48  I run a mac for the show and can't seem to find any info on some new things I saw when trying to schedule my playlist this year.  All of the tutorials I have seen are only windows based and don't seem to even have these items showing at all on those versions. 

I now see an: Every nth day which I am not sure is messing with my show start or stop as well as Refire frequency. 

I have the Every nth day set to 1 and offset is set to 0

The Refire frequency is set to fire once (other options are every hour, every 30 mins, etc.)

They are both the defaults it started with.  Just looking for some advice as my first attempt to run the show ended up looping fine during the show but then proceeded to loop my ending animation that was only supposed to fire once at the very end of the show over and over again.  Worst part is this show it setup at my folks' place that I can't exactly remote into to start or stop and have to drive half way across the city to turn it off for them.  (they are not savvy with this stuff at all).

Looking for some help from any Mac guys using xschedule to run their shows.  Screenshot inserted below.  THANK YOU!!

These were released in 2018.10 and 2018.13 ... so you need the release video that covers those releases.
