I just installed MP yesterday, and really only want it to do one thing: open up the TV on schedule.
Is there a way to launch MP so it opens to fullscreen TV on a specific channel?
I've also repeatedly tried & failed to retrieve any EPG information (it may be because I edited the scanned channel list to include the channel numbers?) But I'll save that question for another day. Primarily, my #1 interest is the above. The TV in Windows Media Center can silent record a specific channel on schedule, but not simply open to a specific channel when my favorite programs come on. Another TV program I've used, Hauppauge's WinTV, can open to a particular channel if I call the program with the four-digit channel number passed as a parameter, but it won't change channels this way once it is already open. And BOTH programs can only schedule a recording, not simply open Live TV on schedule.
Any ideas on how to do this?
