In case anyone is interested in doing something similar, here is a custom rule I added this evening named "Wilma":
channel.callsign = 'CNN' AND program.starttime < '2005-10-24 19:00:00' This will record everything on CNN up until primetime tomorrow night. See: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-11.html#ss11.8 . For recording options I've set a low priority, don't match duplicates, Low Quality, default stretch 1.30. The listings may change with the next run of mythfilldatabase to show "State of Emergency" or "Hurricane Wilma" or such but the rule will still match whatever is listed for "CNN" and will continue to record all the shows. By doing this I can fast forward through the coverage looking for anything significant, check near the end of the recording in progress for the latest conditions, or delete files without watching them but at least have recordings of the overnight events available in the morning. -- bjm _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
