I wish there was a good looping software that good take any song and cut the perfect infinite loop of it automatically.

    Seems like it would be pretty easy to set up some cron job that would change a symlink to a folder every hour and just run programs from that symlink.

      That would likely work if the intent was to watch files locally, and that’s not the goal. The goal is to stream them out to something viewable on a television.

      A DLNA server can do the streaming, but not the scheduling and it won’t run continuously.

        Seems like youre shooting these down without considering what the author meant by “program”.

        • Create a folder called “My Channel”
        • Make a bash script that does the symlinks
        • Add folder to Jellyfin
        • Profit
