Hi,
I'm trying to find some replacement for vdradmin that would be a bit more reliable than the am-versions, and newer than the original vdradmin 1.96. The 1.96 has so far been working best with the auto timers if compared with the am-versions of vdradmin. The biggest problem with the am-versions of vdradmin was that I got recordings that claimed to be e.g. Alias, but what was recorded was completely something else. Other problems with auto timers was that I got a bunch of identical timers, and if I did not clean up my timers on regular basis, I got the many programs recorded multiple times.
If someone has any suggestions for a vdradmin-replacement, then they are welcome :-)
If you 'only' need something for automatic recording and can live without a web-frontend then you may try Master-Timer.

As long as the EPG-Data is good you can use the 'done' functionality to remove Timers for reruns after the recording was successful.
Master-Timer reaches it's 5th birthday (and VDR it's 6th) in about a month and i can say that at least for myself it has always been reliable. :-)
Bis denn
