[QUOTE="Taipan, post: 13067, member: 11681"] Hi STSC, I have been playing around with PVR Scheduler over the past couple of days and some of the settings parameters have me a bit puzzled. Ideally, this is what I want to be able to do:- ....Select TV programs in MediaPortal/My TV/TV Guide, to be recorded. ....Then, either by using my Microsoft MCE2005 Remote, or through PVR Scheduler, put the PC to Standby mode. ....Then have PVR Scheduler "wake-up" the PC, do the recording and then go back to Standby mode. So, the questions I have are:- 1. What is the interaction between the TV Recording Settings in MediaPortal Configuration (Start Recording & Stop Recording) and the Task Offset Time in PVR Scheduler/Settings? Which settings take precedence? Or have I misunderstood the meaning of "Task Offset Time"? 2. If I set a recording to commence at 09:30, what determines how far ahead of 09:30 the PC will wake-up? What allowance is made for the time it takes the PC to wakeup and be ready to commence recording? 3. The "User Inactivity Automatic" parameter seems to monitor only keyboard and mouse activity? I had this set, and while I was watching TV, PVR Scheduler put my PC to Standby. :( 4. How do I set PVR Scheduler to put my PC back to Standby mode, once the recording is finished? 5. What is the meaning of the "Automatic" button in the PVR Scheduler GUI? It seems to have 3 values - IAM (red), OFF (black) and ON (green) - what do each of those do? 6. In the Scheduler Settings pane, there is a checkbox "Autostart" - what does that mean or do? 7. In the EPG Settings window, there is a pane labelled "MediaPortal". The check boxes in this pane seem to be general MediaPortal settings and not specific to the EPG function? For example, how does the setting "Shutdown/Standby only when in Home Screen" interact with the "User Inactivity Automatic" setting in the Settings window? I apologise for all the questions, but this looks like a great plugin to use with MediaPortal and I would really like to be able to use it to its fullest capability..... :D Cheers, Taipan [/QUOTE]
