[QUOTE="and-81, post: 230984, member: 11844"] MediaPortal itself wont do what you need, but IR Server Suite should be able to do that with either the TV2 or TV3 Blaster Plugin. With either of those plugins in the IR Server Suite you should be able to set a "select command" (which executes after the channel numbers have been sent). The select command would just be a macro with: [I]Blast: Enter Pause: 1000 (ms) Blast: Start_Recording[/I] To take care of the stop recording event you would need to use the MP Control Plugin (if you use tv engine 2), or the comskip launcher plugin (would work for either). If you use the MP Control plugin you will need to use the event mapper to listen for the recording stop event, and blast the appropriate ir command upon seeing it. If you use the ComSkip launcher plugin you can have it call the IR Blast command line tool when the recording ends. I'll look at putting in a "recording stop" event into the TV2 and TV3 blaster plugins to handle this more elegantly in the future. Apart from what I've described above I can't think of any other way to achieve what you want with other plugins for MediaPortal, but if someone knows of a way then please share. Hope that helps, [/QUOTE]
