How to do scheduling playlist on iPhone manually?

You can put this code into a file named playPlaylist.js on your hard drive somewhere like C:Scripts:

 

var 	iTunesApp = WScript.CreateObject("iTunes.Application");
var	source = iTunesApp.LibrarySource;
var	playLists = source.Playlists;

if (playLists != null) {
	var numPlaylists = playLists.Count;
	if (numPlaylists >= 0) {
		/*  Set the Playlist Name here  */
		var	playList = playLists.ItemByName("Recently Played");
		if (playList != null) {
			playList.PlayFirstTrack();
		}
		else {
			WScript.Echo("Failed to find specified playlist");
		}
	}
	else {
		WScript.Echo("There are no playlists to search");
	}
}
else {
	WScript.Echo("Failed to find playlists in MainLibrary");
}

Then create a Play.bat file with this code:

@echo off
C:
cd C:scripts
cscript /nologo playPlaylist.js

Then save it in the same directory as the playPlaylist.js script and go to the control panel and schedule the play.bat file to run at the time you wish.
