[QUOTE="gperkinson, post: 392984, member: 83961"] Hi Bavarian, Generally I have had a stable machine since loading the "bat" file mentioned previously into Task Scheduler. On times it doesn't wake for scheduled recordings or on some occasions wakes and goes back to sleep, it appears to be when the scheduled task has failed due to being unable to connect to the internet. I have a wireless motherboard and wireless router and sometimes I loose connection. I'm going to try and add to the Powerscheduler processes the task that runs to pull the EPG and execute this from Powerscheduler to see what happens. I'm hoping that Powerscheduler will handle things better and if it works no less than Task Scheduler, at least everything is in one place. I'm not logged on, but I see there is an EPG tickbox import setting which allows / disallows re-importing the whole EPG download (rather than just the changes) I was thinking this might help where there is no internet connection i.e. it will not override everything with nothing. Any thoughts? I have seen everything blanked out before. One last thing, I notice that if a set a scheduled recording for say every week at the same time and for some reason the scheduled time changes (even by 5 minutes) MP does not record it? e.g. if I set every week on a channel at 7:30 to 8:30 and the following week it's 7:35 to 8:35. It's a pitty that you cannot get MP to simply search by a keyword and if it finds it, it records it no matter what time it's on. Oh, and one final thing.
