+I need one more component here, the service manager service site
+I'll use what I built for the carputer, and add to it
+Things to add:
+- Duration selection grid
+- Duration Submission Selection API
+- Cron job + helper script
+
+I will update the API to maintain the selection state and return it from the API
+I will write a selection grid that updates color depending on selction
+It will also be a styled radio button states 0-3 for 6ht, 2hr, 1hr, and 30min
+I will write a helper cron script that runs every second that will stop the service when the API says so
+The API will have a function that will return the expected state of the service
+When the helper script sees it not match, it will stop the service

+# Path settings
+
+# Settings in "paths" are applied to specific paths, and the map key
+# is the name of the path.
+# Any setting in "pathDefaults" can be overridden here.
+# It's possible to use regular expressions by using a tilde as prefix,
+# for example "~^(test1|test2)$" will match both "test1" and "test2",
+# for example "~^prefix" will match all paths that start with "prefix".
+paths:
+  # example:
+  # my_camera:
+  #   source: rtsp://my_camera
+
+  # Settings under path "all_others" are applied to all paths that
+  # do not match another entry.
