Getting App to open up and play a Video Folder

Is there a way I can get this app to open up and play a video folder?

Here's a video with a brief explanation of what I'm trying to achieve.

Hi. That was an interesting way to describe a request!

Yes, you should be able to do that, using AppleScript or Automator. Use Script Editor or Automator to make a script to open the folder or play a video from the folder, and save it to Time Out's Scripts folder (which you can reveal via an item in the add action menu, via the (+) button on the Actions page).

You can then choose to perform that script action when the break finishes (or other time of your choosing).

Hope this helps.

Hey David,

Thanks for getting back with me.

Would you be willing to do this for me if I paid you?

If not, can you recommend someone that would be able to do this for me if I paid them?
