To start or stop dvr recording you could simulate web interface commands on telnet, to start recording it would be something like this:
to stop recording:
Code:
wget "http://root:dreambox@localhost/cgi-bin/videocontrol?command=record"to stop recording:
Code:
wget "http://root:dreambox@localhost/cgi-bin/videocontrol?command=stop"Srart ans Stop Recording from Telnet
Thanks for the reply.
Can you choose between the recording options Ngrab or DVR?
I have a DM500S running Gemini 4.1
Reason I ask is I'm looking to compile my own Tuxbox plugin scripts from to run from the yellow button plugin menu to start and stop both recording options manually.
Regards
Matt
