NextEnd Extension Mechanism

[jcole998]

NextEnd sometimes needs to tell the NextPVR service to manipulate a recording's end time. How is this done, please? Changing the database and telling the service to re-read? Direct message to the service? Is there a coding example available?

It could be a handy tool in my toolbox.

Thanks.

NextEnd doesn't touch the database directly, it uses nshared and nutility functions to extend the recordings.

ScheduledRecording curSchd = ScheduledRecording.LoadByOID(schd.OID);
curSchd.EndTime = curSchd.EndTime.AddMinutes(postExtend);
curSchd.Save();

Then I use ScheduleHelperFactory.GetScheduleHelper() to reload the scheduel.

You should walk through sub's v5 javascript code and do it via the api.

Thanks, Martin. Where do I find sub's v5 javascript code?

[mvallevand]

It starts in the C:\Program File\NextPVR\data but really if I have to answer that I think I will drop out of the discussion now.

Thanks for the location.

It's the wrong one though it is wwwroot

I assumed you meant folder C:\Program Files\NextPVR\data and other than Placeholder.txt, it is empty. Have they been moved?

We crossed posts. Sorry.
