Bug Description
Flywire should offer the ability to run an entire playlist while "pausing" at certain intervals.
The scenario is that of a complete program. The playlist could contain the entire show's media, while pausing for the announcers to speak. This would offer a completely structured program that could revolve entirely around Flywire being the holder of the structure of the show.
To do this, a special "pause" MediaItem would have to be created. It could be a timed pause (which would expire after a specified time and just start playing) or it could be an untimed pause, requiring the producer to press play when they're ready to continue.
This would also open the way to predefined playlists being imported, or associating pauses with text to read, but that would be the topic of a couple of other bug reports.
