I've been patiently waiting for an update. Thanks very much for this and all your hard work.

Perfect timing, I just completed a massive upgrade of my entire system and got to add this just in time.

Thanks again for maintaining this tool, it's been indispensable.

Fla, I tried to answer your PM but your box was full.

I tested bug "[ 1397304 ] XSearch incorrectly updates priorityrecordings.xml" with 0.46d and the bug is fixed. The configuration settings are not overwritten anymore.

I backed my version to 0.46d for now since it seems the Community Skin has some issues with the new Xrecord 0.47 version skin changes.

Thanks for the warning, I cleared up some PM space.

Thanks for confirming. Kingargyle gets the credit for fixing this for CDK Scheduler, XRecord just needed to package the updated version of recordingutils.dll.

I backed my version to 0.46d for now since it seems the Community Skin has some issues with the new Xrecord 0.47 version skin changes.

I suspected existing skins may be affected. The skin file changes in XRecord 0.47 are minor so it should be very easy for the maintainers to adjust the community skin to it.

I'll get on the Xrecord update.

This is by far my favorite plugin and I'm very happy to see continued maintenance.

In my opinion this plugin works better than even my Tivo! Tivo has a short term memory and starts recording things again after 60 days, Rectracker never forgets when I have seen a program and when I combine this with Video Archiver and it's feature to rerecord messed up programs I never have to miss a show again. Thanks again to everyone who continues to work on it!

Does this fix the issue where default of record by title would not work? I have been using the work-around of by title partial to correct.

Very excited to see an update.

This fix is for programs that start before midnight and end on or after midnight. ex 11PM - 12AM, 11:30PM - 12:30AM. They would get dropped by priorityrecording.exe and never get recorded.

I thought the "record by title" worked but became case sensitive under sqlite. I could try to make it case insensitive for sqlite as it was in Access. Is there another issue with "record by title"?

I'm pretty sure that's it, but UncleJohnsBand would know for sure.

I think the only other lingering xrecord issue I could think of was the d/l image for posters hasn't worked in a while (or worked well), but that's a lower priority item.

If I had to suggest a improvement, it would be to add a color or something to scheduler recordings when they are suspended. I don't know if there's been a way to tell them apart from active ones.
