CDK Scheduler Examples

Can you translate that to english for me.

I'm testing a new version of the scheduler now. I will take a look out how dates are stored in different operating systems.

I have made some significant changes to the code... but not the logic (when the scheduler works it works perfectly).

The changes I made should solve a lot of people problems.

I hope to have it out in the next few days.

Thanks... when I get home I'll look at it.

I'm pretty certain it's a date thing.

Like all other recordings you can add Channel restriction, Time Retrictions, Duplicate recording restrictions, etc. The only item that you should not include is the ProgramName element. You either use the Search or the ProgramName not both at the same time.

Here is an example of my PriorityRecordings.xml This is working with everything being updated yesterday. I assume you can remove all the recording sections and just leave the skeleton and it should work. give this a try first and you can modify it as you see fit.

I'd love to add support to the video archive plug-in but the idea of writting it all from scratch is daunting. Jeff

Here's an old thread .... I love the idea of CDKScheduler, but find the Manual Setup is a bit daunting for me. Sub says he'll add this functionality to a future release. It's even become a "hot" Wishlist item :-)

In the meantime though, did adding it to VideoArchive ever get off the ground?

Here's an old thread .... I love the idea of CDKScheduler, but find the Manual Setup is a bit daunting for me. Sub says he'll add this functionality to a future release.

Just to be clear, I was only talking about the "Record ALL showings of a TV show on ANY channel" part of the request. I dont know what else CDKScheduler does, but I'm guessing more than just that.

It's even become a "hot" Wishlist item :-)

Are you aware that I already implemented priority control on the 'reoccurring' list of the Recordings screen?
