Provide the path to watch for changes, VRA will automatically read the updated contents of the file when the file has changed.
File Role
There are 4 different roles you can assign to your text file content/data:
- Music: parsed data will be used as currently playing music
- Regular: parsed data will be used as regular currently playing music
- Upcoming: parsed data will be used as the upcoming track
- History: parsed data will be used as the last playing track
