   I wanna change that Android TV text to something else. The idea was to wack a load of clever lyrics into a file then display them randomly every 20 minutes or 2 hours how often would depend on how manys in the file.https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/N5jEjk80d9W7ZegZr09Lk5fnWfuD5KZoTznsCDnonMY4Nlk_2YSXtaMZWJ1czNLp4fLWlElieA

   I miss programming..

   
   

   in the sample/snippet below, I creating a forecast weather folder

   
   

   
   

   I create a shortcut on a folder container, set it’s name, then

   
   

   I had the option to either create multiple variables for all the weather items (just one variable in the code)

   
   

   or I could have just one variable and parse the JSON once the variable gets updated (that was the option I choose)

   
   

   
   

   hope this helps

   
   

   
   

   
   

   var itm = fol_c.addShortcut(“location”, new Intent(), 0, 0);

   
   

   itm.setName(“weather_location”);

   
   

   
   

   //itm.setBinding(“s.label”,’$weather_loc’,true);

   
   

   
   

   itm.setBinding(“s.label”,’var wx_str = $weather;\n’ + ‘var wx = JSON.parse(wx_str);\n’ + ‘return wx.loc;’, true);

   just 2 extra cents in case that someone is looking for the same

   
   

   
   

   with bindings you only need to update the variable and whatever you had in the code will perform after the update

   
   

   
   

   and I believe that you need to have at least one variable using the following nomenclature (starting with the dollar sign)

   
   

   $variable

   Set Dummy.

   
   

   This makes a variable “LastUpdate”.

   
   

   If starting this, or over 20 minutes, this will be executed immediately when LL active.

   
   

   
   

   bindClass(“android.os.Handler”);

   
   

   bindClass(“java.lang.Runnable”);

   
   

   var interval=20; //minutes

   
   

   var mintime=5; //minutes

   
   

   interval=interval*60;

   
   

   mintime=mintime*60;

   
   

   var ptime=0;

   
   

   var lasttime=new Date(LL.getVariables().getString(“LastUpdate”))/1000;

   
   

   var now=$ll_timestamp;

   
   

   if(lasttime%interval!=0){

   
   

   ptime=lasttime%interval;

   
   

   if(ptime>interval-(mintime)){

   
   

   ptime=ptime-interval;

   
   

   }

   
   

   interval=interval-ptime;

   
   

   }

   
   

   if(

   
   

   now>=(lasttime+interval)

   
   

   ){

   
   

   try{

   
   

   var mhandler=new Handler();

   
   

   mhandler.post(new Runnable({

   
   

   run:function(){

   
   

   setVariableString(“LastUpdate”,new Date().toString());

   
   

   //CODE YOU WANT RUNNING

   
   

   //getActiveScreen().runScript(“test1”,null);

   
   

   }}));

   
   

   return;

   
   

   }catch(e){return;}

   
   

   }
