I've been searching around for an answer to this, and have found several that don't answer much.
I know we can specific scripts to run on boot, and they can do things like mount a network drive.
But, can we tell the O!Play device to start playing the files (say, images) located on a USB device, or on a network mount.
My specific scenario is to autplay images on a USB thumb drive.
I'm using the O!Play as a slideshow player in a local business, and sometimes it likes to crash. Then I have to restart the slideshow.
I can do this blindly with the remote in moServices, which is nice - but sometimes it stays on the home screen for hours before I notice (it's a big building).
Anyways, is it possible? I'm not well versed in Linux, or the inner workings of the O!Play.
I have 1.40N and moServices on all of my devices.
Thanks.
EDIT: I recently purchased the WDTV Live and autorun is a defualt feature of its firmware. I'm considering replacing all my O!Plays with the WDTV Live, but before I go through that cost, I wanted to see if I could do some magic with what I got.
