Multi recorder suggestion
Posted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 3:46 am
Hi,
May I make a suggestion?
First of all, I should like to say that I also use WinTV for recording (bear with me please).
In order to use their software from the command line (and allow my program to monitor it),
I copy the executable from WinTV7Rec.exe and make two copies WinTV7Rec1.exe and
WinTV7Rec2.exe.
This allows me to start each tuner separately and monitor for failures.
Your DVBdream.exe is designed to check for existing sessions, (as is the dreamstart.exe).
This is fine, but prevents use of more than one recorder - and you can now buy cards
with four channels now!
My suggestion, is that you check the executable name called and if not DVBdream.exe,
disable the checks and just use the command line options to start a recording.
This would fix the problem that I have seen mentioned in the forum many times, but still
retain the dreamstart / dvbdream functionality.
Your thoughts?
Regards,
Richard Gamester.
