Best approach to creating recurring recordings from c#

drmargarit · 2015-09-27, 01:32 AM

I have a utility that automatically adds every show premier to the recurring recordings list (ie. s01e01) filtered by time and channel. I manually add a record to npvr.db3. Every update, I worry about if I am going to break something. This year I broke the recurring recordings screen by not escaping an ampersand in the show title (Blood & Oil).

I have seen references to SchedulingHelper and web interfaces but I have no idea where to find them or documentation.

What approach would you recommend to avoid breakage when future releases come out?

Thanks,

Jim
