You still need internet access to use tvtv. The recordserver would query tvtv for your recordings. The problem with that is, that freevo may not know about it. E.g. you turn your box of and let it auto start on recordings. Now you have a recording tomorrow and the box is shut down. It will wakeup again tomorrow. If you now add a tvtv recording today, Freevo will not know about it. But tvtv support would be a nice mbus app. The app would get the data From tvtv, ask the recordserver using mbus and schedules the missing recordings. I hope tvtv will open the epg data on day. I asked them (or was it tvinfo.de?) about such a features (I would pay for that, no problem) and they say they are thinking about it. So I still have hope for a nice epg. > On Fri, 2005-10-21 at 21:23 +0200, Stephan Kanthak wrote: >> Hi, >> >> On Friday 21 October 2005 19:44, Bastian Farkas wrote: >> > could this be integrated with the new record server in freevo 2.0? >> > although only german (and uk?) users would benefit from it, i think >> > beeing able to schedule recordings from any location where you have >> > internet. >> >> I've set up my freevo box so that you can >> >> 1. wake it up from the internet using any webbrowser (and it is >> actually placed behind a firewall); needs a machine with >> wake-on-lan feature I have something similar.

Do you use wakeup on lan for starting the box before the recordings? And if you do, do you use Freevo 2.0 and the shutdown helper to do so? Dischi -- Anything labeled "NEW" and/or "IMPROVED" isn't. The label means the price went up. The label "ALL NEW", "COMPLETELY NEW", or "GREAT NEW" means the price went way up.
