The only trick to using dates with ADO.NET is making sure you've truncated off any seconds:

// set start date
saveScheduledRecordingCommand.Parameters[7].Value = new DateTime(scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Year, scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Month, scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Day, scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Hour, scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Minute, scheduledRecording.getStartTime().Second); saveScheduledRecordingCommand.Parameters[7].DbType = System.Data.DbType.DateTime;

Is unique_identifier used for anything?

I'm going to make a few more attempts at getting the date sorted out, but if I can't, I'm thinking of just sticking an md5 hash in the unique_identifier field and using the to query against for updates.

CDate() was what I needed to make this work, thanks for the tip on that.

Turns out unique_identifier is also needed, gbpvr doesn't seem to like it if that's empty, so I filled it with an MD5 hash of the channel and start time. Had I known this field couldn't be left empty, I could have saved myself alot of grief and used this hash in the first place
