Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: vlc
I have 3 video's I'm trying to play as a playlist at 8 am. I've checked in the
terminal and as a regular script that this works fine. Right now I'm just
trying to get it working so I'm using wildcards for the time and day. I tried
it with sourcing and without sourcing in the crontab. Then I tried to run it as
a regular script with no luck. I've checked that my script runs fine in the
terminal. I also did this with sourcing and without sourcing. I really don't
understand what I'm doing wrong so any help would be appreciated.
[code]
* * * * * vlc -L /home/vids/vid1 /home/vids/vid2 /home/vids/vid3
* * * * * /home/bob/Desktop/yo
* * * * * . /home/bob/Desktop/yo[/code]
I have also checked the /etc/cron.deny and /etc/cron.allow and there are
no problems in those files.
I set up a simple echo script so I know its actually doing its job.
[code]* * * * * echo hi >> /home/bob/Desktop/come[/code]
