Can you spot my error? Trying to sched recording of tv tuner

[dinki]

I'm trying to set up a way to periodically record video/audio from my tv tuner. I am able to use the interface and can create a file that plays well. I'm now trying to get it automated using VLM. I've telnet'd in and used the following:

Code: Select all

new record broadcast enabled input dshow:// option dshow-vdev="USB TV Tuner Video Capture" option dshow-tuner-channel=0 option dshow-tuner-country=0 option dshow-tuner-input=0 option dshow-video-input=-1 option dshow-audio-input=-1 option dshow-video-output=-1 option dshow-audio-output=-1 output sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=mpeg1,dst="C:\share\junk.mpg"}} new start schedule enabled date 2008/05/30-15:00:00 append control record play new end schedule enabled date 2008/05/30-15:05:00 append control record stop

I don't get any errors and the 'show all' shows the media and schedule elements. I check the output directory after the scheduled times passes and the expected output file is not there.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Many thanks!

I was able to get it working using the web interface. Much much easier. Thanks to all who looked.
