Autotimer shows

[siilver]

Just wondering what shows do people record with autotimers

Just want to try something out
Sports soaps ? Any help would be great thanks

My mum records all manner of shite on the docs channels. So much so that nobody else can watch anything during half the day...

The other half records stuff like coronation street, casualty, and any other garbage no sane individual would watch, she is a mad bint mind

is f1 only on ssp1?

 

[Janso]

It's got its own channel these days - funnily enough, Sky Sports F1. ;)

If you're looking for a programme that's on different series, channels, days and times try Most Haunted.
It's on Pick, Really and Real Lives.

Wheeler dealers or storage wars maybe too? Peppa pig?! :-)

 

[Janso]

Christ I can't stand that cretin on wheeler dealers.

Will not be the same now Edd China has quit, just the annoying Brewer and some other person if they keep it going

 

[Janso]

Ant Anstead is going to be replacing him. Christ alone knows how Brewer keeps getting airtime as he's an absolute toss pot.

Thanks for the shows

Next problem is the setting the service channel. It keeps wiping it to all channels

 

[siilver]

Seems to be openwebif is the problem
If you change any of the settings on openwebif it will clear the what service you have set.
But it seems fine on the xml

 

[siilver]

so this is what im trying to working on

autotimerpreset plugin

its a plugin to replace the autotimers.xml that you have on the box
so you will lose your autotimers.xml you have setup already, so make a backup before hand, if you want to try it

timers added

street science
emmerdale
coronation street
eastenders
f1
casualty
come dine with me
hollyoaks
home and away
fast and loud

they are all very simple timers and hoping they work
f1 should only be the main race only
soaps/ some dine with me are the during the week episode only
street science, casualty and fnl are single episodes a week

they are setup to record off ni channels as thats where i am based, so i hope it works ok for other regions in the uk. still testing so i will need to look more in to it


to install
ftp over to the regular place and install as normal. may need a restart of the box to kick it in

Activate timers
Menu timers autotimers
Select the timer you want. Ok on it and change "enable" to yes
Save on the way out

to uninstall
menu plugins remove. it will be under system plugins (autotimerpreset)
This seems remove the xlm but not the timers. Weirdly, maybe missing something

Link removed


i am testing it on atv 6.0 on uk sat and im still at early testing stages so go nice and easy please
if you see problems please let me know and let me know if the timers work too

still testing, be nice lol

 

[Janso]

Will test on 5.3, I've got cable and satellite to try it out on.

Thanks very much
No idea how it will react. Might be able to add the HD sports to it and see what happens

 

[Janso]

First thing I notice is the IPK carries across the recordings you've set up (i.e. I have Casualty, Hollyoaks etc with autotimers now) - not sure that was intentional?

 

[siilver]

But are they turned off or on

They should be off
