Hi.
I'd love to have more scheduling possibilities in the VC, not just time. Like Day of the week or even date.
I use the system to control installations and many times they don't run same every day, sometimes only some days of the week, or sometimes at different time in different days.
I use crontab to close and open QLC, but don't really trust to much closing and restarting every time.
Using mostly raspberries PI...
Just an idea.
Thanks
More scheduling in VC

Why? It's only a process you are killing in a 'clean' state.
If after QLC+'s restart the DMX interface is reset properly (which I assume it does) things will work over and over again.
Using crontab is what I'd do. (You can find graphical tools to construct a crontab entry)
I'd be more concerned that a raspberry does not have a precision internal clock, so syncing to an NTP network source is vial.
All electric machines work on smoke... when the smoke escapes... they don't work anymore
