[QUOTE="dvdfreak, post: 285372, member: 21313"] Well, I actually started to do this a year or perhaps even longer ago :) But my changes were removed from SVN after a while due to problems (which were never explained to me actually). But this didn't mattter that much because I realized from looking and working on MP's scheduler code that drastic measures and a new approach was required if we wanted to improve it a lot. Check out the start of the TV Scheduler thread where I proposed how to do this with what eventually became [b]For The Record[/b]. Unfortunately there was little to no enthusiasm from the developers back then, even though I brought this up several times. So TV Scheduler grew on its own and became [b]For The Record[/b]. Sure it can be a bonus in some cases or to some users, but in [b]For The Record[/b] this is switchable per schedule, so we let the user decide what he wants :) If something went wrong it will be recorded the second rerun, and if nothing went wrong it won't. I'd call this pretty damn useful and handy ;) [/QUOTE]
