Greetings,i wonder if i could ask for some help: i'd like to schedule a stream recording from a m3u playlist file i have,is there any way to do it? That is tell the program when to start and stop recording?
I have found that could be done with a .bat file but i am a bit noob on such things and i don't know how to procede
can someone point me towards it?
thank you very much and happy easter

No, there are no ways to do it with an M3U playlist.

To schedule a record, you either have to use VLM (see documentation, non-trivial), or the OS task scheduler.

Hi everyone!
I have to register a program in a channel list in .m3u and I want to try in scheduled mode like that post: https://www.reddit.com/r/VLC/comments/8jw4rx/vlc_schedule_recording_a_specific_channel/
nobody reply this guy.
I also write an easy script in .bat on Windows 10 but I can open Vlc at the startup on the link but I can't recording in a "scheduled way". I have saw and tried SchTasks.exe in scheduled operation of Windows but I need to register that video every x day at x hour.
I think it's absolutely crazy (with all respect) that Vlc doesn't support this function with plugins/settings!!
I tried .vlm function but with no results
Does anyone know a solution?
Thanks
