[QUOTE="TommySharp, post: 642326, member: 29262"] I'm not sure if iPimp already does this and I just don't have it setup correctly but this is my situation. To keep my server running super sweet I've got it scheduled to re-boot every morning at 7:30am. That way if the tvservice or anything else craps out then it'll be nicely resolved when the machine re-boots. I've got my iPimp setup to start transcoding at 11pm at night. I've got to the stage now where the window between 11pm and 730am is too small and so the server re-boots halfway through a transcode and there may well be even more in the transcode "to-do" text file. Would it be possible to make ipimp only remove a recording from the "transcode-me" file once it's properly been done, that way if the server re-boots half way through then at 11pm the next night ipimp will start transcoding again with the file that didn't finish properly? Just a though but if anyone has any other ideas on how to better handle this then please do say...... apart from... "don't re-boot your machine".. :-) Maybe if someone could explain exactly how iPimp queues up files and marks them as complete? I did notice there are two text files.... not 100% sure what they both do and how they relate to each other? [/QUOTE]
