Folks,
I didn't know where to post this so I'm putting it here. Sub, feel free to move it if you wish.
Yesterday, I hacked together a quick access database to give me a watch list for either shows I'd like to record if they ever come on, or actors that I like, anything they're listed in (assuming it's in the description - zap2it canada/us has this). I know this feature I'd love built in, but I'd guess it's a low priority given the number of people it can support (ie, US/Canada based on the zap2it outputs) hence my quick effort to do this, given Christmas season is coming and there's a few shows I'd like to record for once and not miss.
It opens to a simple page listing the shows and artists on the right, add any you want. click the "process" button and it returns a list of shows from the epg in gbpvr. From there, you simply pick the ones to record, and click the record button. Done. When it appears, it will appear in your list of recorded shows. It uses the season programming method to ensure it gets a copy (since I find I have a number of conflicts) so at some point, you need to remove the same listing from that list (I know...feature request to check that it's been recorded and take it out directly...)
If you're interested, PM me and I'll email it over. If there's a public posting locations and Sub agrees, I'll post it there if desired.
Thanks for the great product and support here.
