Hi Mister Slimm, got a problem with the latest version where the pending list is in some random order.
E.G.
gbpvrcli /p 3 /m "{Title}\n{StartDate} {StartTime:t}"
gives in my case 3 random recordings (in fact the 14th, 15th & 13th) not the first three.

and confirming that,
gbpvrcli /p 99 /m "{Title}\n{StartDate} {StartTime:t}"
gives all the pending recordings but in a random (but repeatable) order.

All worked fine with previous version.
Could you check please, thanks

Thanks. That's really weird though it serves me right for not retesting old functionality. I will leave this to investigate in the future.

In the meantime, you can use the new /orderby switch to rectify the problem. There are a number of examples in SlimmGBPVRHelp.chm if you expand the Command line switches topic.

Code:
gbpvrcli /p 3 /orderby "{StartTime}" /m "{Title}\n{StartDate} {StartTime:t}"

By the way, if you omit the number of entries required, gbpvrcli will list all entries, ie., the following are equivalent.

Code:
gbpvrcli /p 99 /orderby "{StartTime}" /m "{Title}\n{StartDate} {StartTime:t}"

gbpvrcli /p /orderby "{StartTime}" /m "{Title}\n{StartDate} {StartTime:t}"

I hope this is good enough for now and thanks very much for reporting it.

Thanks, the "/orderby" switch solves everything, my batch files are updated so I've no need for a fix.

Thanks again for the quick support and hope your health is good at the moment.

It took a bit of finding, but it solved my problem as well Wink

My next search is for a text to jpeg conversion to let me dump an image to a small wireless photoframe for use as a status monitor near the TV.
