I'm trying to use comskip launcher to run a batch file after recording.
It works fine in Windows XP but it doesn't do anything on another computer under Windows 7.
Is there something different you need to do with Win 7 ?

    Hi there :)

    please attach your tv.log file for both PC's (XP where it worked and 7 where it was supposed to work).
    Maybe someone can pick up something comparing the logs.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I checked the log file and it seems comskiplauncher wasn't pointing to my .bat file correctly even though it was configured correctly in the plugin's settings.
    I read elsewhere that manually restarting the TV service can fix this so I tried that and it's now working perfectly !! :)

    I'm using Win7 and my Comskip Launcher settings are fine and it used to work , but it is no longer launching after a recording. I browsed though the log file and i get the following:

    Code:

    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Same happened again, Worked fine for a month or so, No changes at all to PC or MediaPortal, No MP updates or Media Portal updates.
    To me is seems to be some type of permissions issues but i am not sure, As how can it work for a month or two without issues then all the sudden stop.
    Rebooted and restarts MP tv service also did not fix.
    Then again today i get

    I have also had this problem in the past. There are two components to this problem: Your internet router is pinging the HTPC at regular intervals in order to see if the HTPC is still present on the network. The network adapter in the HTPC has "Wake on Lan" enabled. So at the end of a recording, the HTPC transitions from away mode to...

    Good to hear you got it working.(y) I have attached a screenshot of my Power Scheduler settings and, yes my TV does stay off when a scheduled recording starts.
