Having tried out a couple of things like KnoppMyth and GBPvr im happy to have the 0.2.3 release of MediaPortal running smoothly so far with recording and standby/wakeup working correctly. I use the windows task scheduler service to update my system time via NTP using Automachron every 2 hours and after a wakeup. Also i run O&O Defrag every wednesday night at 2am, having it wake up, do its job and go sleep again. On tuesdays i scheduled a close of mediaportal, automatic run of CCleaner and a EPG update using TVMovie, TVM2XML and TVGuideScheduler.exe after which i start mediaportal again and let it drop to standby (after 5 minutes with powerschdeuler). I use the watchdog plugin to check if comskip is still running after a recording so powerscheduler doesnt interrupt it while sending the pc to sleep. [I]Now a few questions:[/I] I found that the Home menu item order doesnt really show up as configured via rightclicking the "home" window plugin, all in all the configuration there seems a little strange with items suddenly jumping around and stuff like that. is there a way to manually editing the layout of the Home menu and maybe even add items or folders to it ? When using the multishortcut plugin, how can i use my remote to f.e. close a notepad i opened via a multishortcut item ? Currently it looks like mediaportal still has focus even if hidden and i cant seem to find a way to change mediaportal's hauppauge remote module to work with another app (like notepad) ? How can i view logfiles from within mediaportal ? Is there some way to show cpu usage and running tasks from within mediaportal (maybe even with a taskkill option)? How can i manually delete all EPG entries from mediaportal's database without using it's setup tool, preferredly from a batch file ? Which is the best working solution to reduce size of recordings by converting them to xvid or divx preferredly after cutting commerzials out via comskip's data ? Is there a way to use scripting, preferredly AutoIt or batchfiles from within MediaPortal ? That should be enough for now. I really appreciate support from anyone who is willing to answer :thx: [/QUOTE]
