Issues
I am struggling to get a layout played as soon as possible, but only once.
I tried to schedule a layout with:
start: now
end: now + 5 minutes
priority: >0 (other layouts have 0 and are played all the time)
repeat: every 5 minutes
until: now + 5 minutes
Result: Layout is permanently played, not every 5 minutes, even quiet some time after the end/until.
I tried priority=0, interrupt layout, and other setting: repetition occurs.
What is the time approximately I have to wait to get a proof of play?
BTW: I am currently implementing a booking platform to collect and play content from different providers. One of them gives me a 5 minute time slot to play the content and get a proof of play.
It contains a Python implementation for calls to the Xibo API (this took me some time, maybe someone is interested).
It is open source: Xibo Booking System.
Any feedback is welcome.
