Some Enhancements to Recording

Postby riv-dogg » Thu Oct 13, 2011 11:54 am

I am new to the forum so I apologise if I am covering old ground here. May I say what a great application and thanks so much for getting AAC working for DVB-T2.

Any chance we could address the following.

The file naming feature which grabs the programme name from the EPG gets the name of previous programme most of the time as you usually drop into record a minute early. Could you grab the EPG name at the time of programming - or pull the name of the next programme at record time -or even just allow a manual entry in the scheduler?

Could we set defaults for 'when task is completed' (quit/shutdown) and 'options' (renderless/minimise to tray) to save having to set them every time.

And store the EPG name (event name) as comment in the Windows-scheduler.

Good feature requests.

Please add options 'standby' and 'hibernate' in 'when task is completed' in the scheduler.

done in upcoming version to be released today or tomorrow.
please test, if next epg program starts less than 10 minute of the start time of the record, then DD should use the next epg event to name the record file.

I have just installed 1.6 - seems to get the UK DVB-T2 HD channels 1st time, every time now (thanks).

I see the additional choices in the record window, but no ability to set....

<Quit/Renderless/Minimised> (for example) as a default - which is the feature I would like to see- as I set them manually every time.

Will test the EPG naming tonight - Thanks for implementing this.

EPG programme naming now working correctly for scheduled records! - hooray and thanks

Any chance we could get the record behaviour parameters 'renderless- minimise' etc into options - As I have to select them manually every time.

As a recently arrived user - can I say how great it is to see requests being dealt with so quickly.

Thanks :D

I tested 'standby'. It works fine. I could not test 'hibernate', because of having not enough free disk space. Thanks.
