[QUOTE="Taipan, post: 85473, member: 11681"] Is it sufficient for Mediaportal to be running in the home screen, or does My TV have to be on for the recurring schedules to be updated against the new EPG data? This is what I would like to be able to do (automagically):- 1. Have PVR Scheduler wake the PC and launch WebEPG to grab the next 7 day's TV schedule 2. When WebEPG has finished, launch TVGuideScheduler.exe to update the TV database from the new TVGuide.xml 3. When TVGuideScheduler.exe is finished, have MediaPortal check the new data for any recurring schedules and mark the programs to be recorded. 4. Synchronise PVR scheduler with the new recording schedule times 5. Have PVR scheduler put the PC back to standby mode. Step 3. has me stumped though :S ..... Do you have any suggestions how I might be able to do that step from a batch file, or something similar? [/QUOTE]
