time scheduling playlists

[TookaFace]

I don't know with crontab, i would recommand systemd timer instead:

Code:

sudo systemd-run --unit=Playlist_Soul --on-calendar='2021-02-03 19:00' --timer-property=AccuracySec=500ms sh -c 'mpc clear; mpc load Soul; mpc play'

Will create a timer and a service for loading your playlist Soul at 19H today. You also can replace the mpc commands by a script if u want do more stuff.

To watch ur timers:

Code:

systemctl list-timers

To disable the timer:

Code:

sudo systemctl stop Playlist_Soul.timer

To reset the timers who failed:

Code:

sudo systemctl reset-failed
