Introduction to the Microsoft
Windows Task Scheduler
By using Task Scheduler, you
can schedule programs such as
RaimaRadio or system tools like the Disk
Defragmenter to run at a time
that is most convenient for
you. Task Scheduler starts each
time you start Windows, and
runs in the background. With
Task Scheduler, you can: Schedule
a task to run daily, weekly,
monthly, or at certain times
(such as system startup).

in the Add Scheduled Task wizard.

explanation: A trigger is a set
of rules that will cause the task
to be executed. There are two
types of triggers: time-based
and event-based. Time-based triggers
cause a task to be executed when
the time/date of the trigger has
been reached. Event-based triggers
cause a task to be executed when
certain system events occur such
as start up, log on, or idle.
5. Paste the command line parameters (you must first go to RaimaRadio and select Schedule Station -> Copy To Clipboard) into the Run box and check Run Only If Logged On
|
|
| So
what you have in your "Run" box should look like this:
"C:\PROGRA~1\RAIMAR~1\RaimaRadio.exe"
StationID=8FB6ACDC Duration=60 Action=PlayOnly
