I don't understand clearly what problem you have. Did you try the solution you say? Did you meet any trouble?
To schedule tasks to such an extent of precision as 1 second, I would use Smile's "notify with delay" command. In my experience, if you have the files already open you should experience significantly less than one second latency.
In case you don't know, Smile is a free AppleScript editor and automation environment, see its home page:
