I asked if this was possible and I was told about the recording status.bat file but this happens after the recording starts and isn't completely sufficient.
I'd like a way for GBPVR's service or try program to run commands on before the recording starts. In the growing state of external tuners sometimes we will need to process commands for some things such as sending a wakup command to a turner or mode set etc etc, before the program starts. In addition with external tuners it would also be nice to set a time in advance of recordings however this would have to be surppressed for back to back recordings.
Via batch or whatever means the ability to run commands on the system in advance of recording.
Ability to set how long before start this is excuted
These instructions should happen in advance of any time the recording service first starts but not on back to back recordings (perhaps the abbility to toggle back to back use or not) with the time to considered back to back determined either by the user or by a set time within the program.
Instructions should not be allowed to be triggered while another recording for the same card that that issues the command. Users should be notified of the conflict and forced to change the selected pre-execution time. None of this should apply if the users opts to have the work with back to back recordings.
This should be the same way for prerecording channel changing, which should be considered a different option, except it only seems useful for external tuners and channel changers.
