Tracking Live TV status

[imilne]

The System plugin currently tracks what's recording and how many tuners are active.

It does this by iterating over:

Code:

foreach (ScheduledRecording rec in ScheduledRecording.LoadAll(false))

This gives me the status of "proper" recordings, but doesn't let me know about tuners being used for Live TV. I know, however, that it's possible to dig those details out of the XML returned by:

Code:

ScheduleHelperFactory.GetScheduleHelper().GetServerStatus()

I was wondering if the Live TV information is available by querying the API (as in the first example)? It doesn't matter if it's not, I just thought it might be a cleaner way of retrieving the information rather than having to parse the XML.

Thanks

The GetServerStatus() API is intended to be used for that purpose. That is what the tray app uses for reporting this.

Ok, thanks. Just wanted to check.
