[QUOTE="dvdfreak, post: 183480, member: 21313"] The TvScheduler service exposes everything over both a standard http:// web-service and a new net.tcp:// service. So talking to a web-service should definately be possible from C++. A quick search on Google turns up at least these two hits: [url]http://icoder.wordpress.com/2007/06/15/consuming-a-wcf-service-using-wshttp-binding-from-a-c-client/[/url] and [url]http://blogs.msdn.com/madhuponduru/archive/2006/04/05/569400.aspx[/url]. To get an idea of the API you can browse to the web-service URL (like I included in my start-posting). Perhaps this already gives you an idea on how doable this would be for you? BTW, my service does not manipulate the recording schedule in MP, it's more the aim to let MP use the TvScheduler logic to know what it must record. So in essence the Schedule table in the MP database would not be used at all, nor would the Program table. Everything related to the guide and schedules is then contained in the TvScheduler sub-system. For example, I've provided an API to let MediaPortal insert program data it grabs from the DVB stream.
