No, seriously, it's difficult to say since I'm doing this in my spare time.

I'll upload a new test-version a little later on today, it's not feature complete yet, but it's getting a lot closer. Almost all rules are implemented now, and the new Management Console makes it a lot easier for people to test the functionality now.

Nice. Already thought about how to integrate this later? Are you thinking of an MP-GUI for the scheduler? Could get hard to manage all these option e.g. with a remote? But imho a GUI would be import since users need to create/cancel schedules without going to configuration of the plugin.

Yes, I would welcome some input from a GUI designer on how to create a good MediaPortal GUI for all the possibilities. The trick is going to be to control as many powerful options as possible, but still in an easy way that's also remote-friendly (some good/clever on-screen keyboard could be a big help).

No way to merge (or replace) this into the standard MP scheduling code?

Yes, that's certainly a possibility. But this would not expose the full power of the rule-based scheduling to the user, which would be a pity.

On the other hand, it would be a fairly easy first step.

Beta version including the new Management Console GUI has just been uploaded! Check the first posting in this thread!

Unable to install the service-part. The installer shows up an error like "exception in eventhandler OnAfterInstall" (dont know the complete exception-message yet) and rollbacks the installation.

Can you check the eventlog (eventvwr.exe)? Hopefully an error has been logged there by the installer.

What you can also try is running this command from a command prompt (with administrator priviliges):

msiexec /i TvScheduler.Setup.msi /log Setup.log

And then send me the log file.

Anyone else with the same problem?

Hmmm... Previous install worked fine for everyone, and to make matters even more confusing I just tested the install on my Vista laptop here and it worked like a charm.

Just to check, like in the instructions, if you are running Vista, you are running the Setup.exe, right? Not the MSI directly, because that will not work due to Vista's UAC.

EDIT: I can see from your screenshot you are running XP, so my guess about Vista is wrong then. I'll try to find an XP machine here to test the setup on...

EDIT 2: Seems to work fine on an XP machine here (unfortunately without MySQL or SQL Express). So I could only go as far as the database setup form. But I get the impression you guys are getting the error before seeing the form?
