Any way to use MC Scheduler to play live tv? Maybe a playlist? Can live tv be put into a playlist? Any other ways using command line or MC core commands?

MC26 /MCC 30002, <optional channel #>
This plays a channel if MC is already started. <optional channel #> is the channel number assigned to a channel (second column in Manage Channels window). If the channel # is not provided, MC plays the last played channel.
Yes TV channels can be put in a playlist. If you check your "Recently Played" or "Recent Playing Now" playlist (if you have one), you will find your channels there. You can drag these channels into a new playlist.

Here is what I just tested. Channel number 700002 is the number I assigned to my ATSC OTA channel 7-2. I use multiple zeros between major channel number and minor channel number, to make it unique (because I also have cable channels).
-
I suppose this works on a client as well? Once live tv is playing, can I schedule live tv playback to STOP by using mcc 10002 ?
-
I think the answers are yes, and yes. You can just try it.

Thanks, MC scheduler is working great for this.
