Scheduler Questions

Workarounds are nice but the best option would be a software fix.

The easiest and quickest fix would be to  Add some command line arguments to the shortcut of the scheduler. (i.e. "C:\Program Files\Aurora Sequencer\aurora_scheduler.exe" -autostart) so that it can be installed as a startup item. This wont help systems that don't auto logon (need a password to open) but it is a start and a quick and easy development solution.

The ideal option would be to make the Scheduler run as a service in automatic startup mode running as local system account which will always make the scheduler start on system bootup regardless of user logon. Have a switch in the Scheduler software that allows for auto starting of the actual shows- either on or off. This will allow for the shows to be manually disbaled without shutting down the scheduler service.

Or Alt + F4 To lower the active window.

So then every time I start my computer its going to open the scheduler up?  That may be a issue since as of now you cant minimize the scheduler.

Start up directory or Scheduled task?

I think maybe my PM is broke over there cuz the last one was a very long time ago!

If you want this file PM me over a D-light and I'll send it to you.
