Near Video On Demand with VideoLan server

[pscaffardi]

I think this feature should be very useful...

...Near-VideoOnDemand (NVoD) is playing continuosly the same film on several channels with a starting time offset of about 30 minutes.

To do this in VLS, we need timers (cyclic or not) to start playing movies/files at needed time and so on.

Every timer should launch a simple command like 'play ....'.

So, it's not so hard to implement, isn't?

Well, this function part of one of our projects called manager... (hope we'll finish it one day

in the meantime, a simple netcat on the telnet interface, in the cron (or usinf atd) should do the trick...
