Parent Group and Child (Sub) Group

Briefly, Parent and Child Group is a concept of "a group of groups", which means you can add a sub group to a parent and manage contents and schedules for multiple groups at the same time. For example, if you assign player1 to child_group1, and child_group1 to parent_group1, the player1 will playback the files in child_group1 and parent_group1 according to the priority you set. This is convenient for users who want players with different groups to play the same multimedia files.
