Calling noad at a certain time could be done with a cron job, also managing a noad queue could be done externally with some scripting. Controlling could be done with recording commands. The only obstacle left is the actual cut. There are patches that allow external triggering of cutting, and I guess there are also external command line tools for cutting somewhere...
You are right this is also possible with some external scripts. I did this before this patch was available. Nevertheless I dont' like this scripting because it is (in my opinion) much more error-prone. Besides of this I like it very much that I can do everything mit my remote control directly in VDR. If you think of VDR as a livingroom STB you would would agreen that a "normal" STB-User would not set up scripts and CRON-jobs. Think of th WAF! Let's keep things simple! ;-)
