Rumors of the imminent demise of xSchedule are confirmed (see below).
But fear not loyal xSchedule users (and poor Mac users who could not get xSchedule for the last few years). Our crack onshore+offshore+human+AI team, with oversight from your fellow ACLers, have built a replacement for you: EZPlayer. It is much easier to use than FPP or xSchedule, runs on PC, Linux, Mac, or Pi 5, has a slick UI, and delivers frames with much higher FPS / less jitter than xScheduler does.
Here are some feature highlights:
Song/Playlist/Schedule UI, with priorities, loops, shuffle, intro, outro, etc.:
Jukebox with image gallery and queue:
Live 2D/3D Preview w/ audio:
Precise readout of what songs will play when, including any interruptions by high priority playlists (assuming no user playback actions of course):
All of these screens are available by a web browser LAN connection.
And, it supports the basic features too:
Also, don't worry, we have an extensive test lab set up for development, and will be using it in the field for July 4th and Halloween, so you won't have any trouble with it come Christmas(tm).
So, let's all shed a tear for xSchedule...
But onward and upward.

- Real-time controller status
- RemoteFalcon integration, on a schedule.
- Volume control, on a schedule.
- Background overlay sequence schedule + blending (great for Tune To, PSA, making sure your outline is never completely dark, etc.).
- Compatibility with xLights layout, sequence, and other files.
