[Openpvr-devel] openpvr commits for "record" and "schedule"

[Brian J. M. <e87...@in...>]

OK, I just commited a big change to schedule.c and the "record" script
in CVS.

"record" was just updated to reflect what I do here.  Defaults, encoder
of choice etc.  Still very "localized" to my environment.  Needs an
external config file of some sort badly.

"schedule" has seen the conversion of the "seen" database from an XML
file which had to be maintained manually to a Berkeley DB database
that is updated by the command spit out from schedule to schedule
programs.

This means you can run schedule, use the commands it gives you to
schedule programming and then run schedule again and it will remember
what has already been scheduled (and not try to reschedule it) and not
try to schedule something in the same timeslot as perviously.  This is
a big improvement over the way it used to work, IMO.

schedule still does not really schedule anything itself but rather
gives you the command that you can enter to affect the recording via
"at".  Note the "seenput" commands after the "at" command that need to
be entered at the shell prompt right after the "at" command.  That is
what tells the DB what is scheduled to record.

I am sure I have broken something in all those changes, so let me know
what doesn't work (if there is actually anyone out there playing with
this stuff :-).

Cheers,
b.
