Is there a better way to handle scheduled recordings besides the normal built in interface? I find that the "HTPC interface" only works up to maybe 5 scheduled recordings, then it gets to much to handle really. Especially for me who likes to put in "record every episode of simpsons on every channel". Adding recordings work quite fine, but I find editing and removing them to be a real hazzle and would love to find a more "PC style" software to do it, does it exist?

not that i'm aware , but the pros might have some more pointers for you , i would suggest tho you check out the Web Interface of Media portal as its done in IE and is web based, its quite cool , i have a feeling it hasn't been updated in a bit but its damn cool for the dudes who made it.

Wasnt even aware there were a web interface in MP, how do I access it, ie on what port? Do I have to run the "server" application or is it IIS based?

    For this reason and a few others, I use ArgusTV (formerly ForTheRecord) as the recording engine in MP. It has a standalone app, web interface and can either drive the MP TV server or control the cards directly depending on card types (I have it driving TV server).
