In the AUTOSCHEDULE.TXT file, the line following a date/time specification must be an 
interactive playlist file, playlist file, video file, or image file. When the date/time event occurs, 
BrightSign stops playing the current file and begins playing the new file.
The following is an example AUTOSCHEDULE.TXT file:
*/*/*-MON-01:00
weekday.mpg
*/*/*-SAT-01:00
weekend.mpg
In this example, the WEEKDAY.MPG file launches on Monday at 1:00 AM and plays continually 
during the week; on Saturday at 1:00 AM, the file WEEKEND.MPG launches and plays until 
Monday at 1:00 AM.
