Well, I am already in mid of a DIY project of the same. I will be trying to implement all the features Nosh mentioned, AND more with my
Tata Sky and
Laptop together, after about 3 weeks
🙂
Features I am aiming for, regular recording of scheduled shows.
[*]Automatically recording ALL episodes of a program, even at different times.
[*]Auto skipping of commercials in recorded programs
[*]Automatically finding your fav movie, and recording whenever it is aired at any channel
[*]In case two fav programs are aired at conflicting time, the system will record one, and record the other program whenever next it is aired.
[*]Will be using a number of hardware/software solutions to achieve these(hopefully).
[*]Record fav program from a remote location, such as from your office over internet!
[*]See your
TV channels from a remote location....say from US!
[/list]Will keep the forum updated of any success or problems.
