Timed Auto play

Hi all,
first time user here. I am looking for an android media player that is capable of starting by itself on a pre programmed time and date and going through a play list and then stopping. The idea is for the running of a completely automatic fm radio station in a remote part of the Solomon Islands. It would have to run off an Android tablet. Does anybody know of such a thing being available or would that be something that would have to be created? Will VLC do the job? My guess is no.
Cheers
James
:D

Seems you are looking for VLM. Are you ?

If you want to stream from the Android tablet, refer to this thread.

If you want to play the stream on your tablet, I think the VLC app will be sufficient, but I might be wrong (the stream playing feature might not be implemented, I am not aware).

VLC for Android can play streams.
