Load/save timer events

You can load/save timers using the menu.

To load timers on startup, use the /LOADTIMER[=file] command line parameter.
(*.cpt). if no 'file' is defined, Calaym.cpt (according to Calaym exename), if present, will be loaded.

Additionally, when loading timers, you can use a relative time (+/-; +00:30 means 30 minutes later)
To use this feature, you must open a saved timer file with an text editor.

Timer file syntax:
[+/-]<time>, [Name]=<event>[,<filename>][|<event>...]

*Open your *.cpt
*Edit the entry
e.g.   16:30, =6,C:\MyPlaylist.m3u8
to  +00:30, =6,C:\MyPlaylist.m3u8

Please note that some timer functionality is disabled in '/secure' mode.
