I think the OP (original poster) meant by not recording a program even if its scheduled. Sort of an override to not record. May be a script which checks the load or just a file/database entry.
It can be as simple as user$> cp /dev/null /myth/not_record_right_now #### recording precheck script #### if (-f /myth/not_record_right_now) then ### log an entry in mythlog so user know the recording has been overriden exit endif #### continue with the recording ######## ---- user at a later time ----- user$> rm /myth/not_record_right_now Thanks Mudit On 6/16/05, Robert Tsai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thu, Jun 16, 2005 at 08:59:52AM -0700, Tachtevrenidis, Kosta wrote: > > Can I make Myth TV not record live TV when I don't want it?
