A non-interactive scheduler to play my movies and TV shows at set times each week. It should remember with episode was last played so it keeps the sequence correct. I shouldn’t need to do anything except keep the app open.

    Oh, this is exactly what I was looking for! QuasiTV and Nostalgia TV for anyone wondering.

    At least one of them seems to have a Google dependency, with rules me out. But I’ll look into them in more detail. Thanks again!

    Edit: I'm going to go with Ersatz TV.

    Fuck yes! I love jellyfin but I'd kill for a live broadcast to break the stream nonsense.

    That’s very close. If I understand what I’m reading it prepares the shoes for viewing just like I mentioned. But it doesn’t play them automatically. I’m looking for the old experience where the TV Show A plays every Tuesday at 7pm without my needing to press play.

    Still, your suggestion is better than my current situation so I might try to get it running. Thanks!
