Overall Requirements
Re: Overall Requirements
So in reality, the second option is what's needed; select Playlist and loop through all Playlists as a matter of course (ie by default). No-one would like to stop Playlist looping, just be able to select the one they want from time to time.
That's fairly easy to implement.

Penri,
Another query about functionality.
When someone goes to the Webserver Status Monitoring page, they will be given the current state of the system and (at the moment) no updates unless they refresh the page (not particularly easy on a mobile device). There are two solutions to this, both relatively easy to implement:
The Control Page will update the status values after each button has been pressed.
What do you think?

- Add a Refresh button to the Status Monitoring page.
- Make the page auto-refresh.

Re: Overall Requirements
NB: There's a little bit of JavaScript for this that you can steal from the Engineer GUI if needed for option 2 - you won't need to change your program that way, I think.

Re: Overall Requirements
Oh nice, didn't know you could do that from the server side. I'll have a look at that too, might be useful for my project.

Re: Overall Requirements
Well I'm not certain you can do that yet, but it's mentioned in the Harvard Video (I think) so I'll look back at that if that's the way we want to go.

Re: Overall Requirements
I may be wrong about flask-moment. A quick trawl of the net reveals that it's more about refreshing the date and time displayed on the page rather than refreshing the page. I must have misunderstood what the lecturer was talking about when it was mentioned. It makes sense for page refresh to be a client side activity too.
No matter, even if it has to be done in JS it appears to be very simple.

Re: Overall Requirements
I'd go with the refresh button option.
