    Check Scheduled Recordings

    I have no idea if this will be of much use to anyone else, but it might help you manage an issue some people have with the title of shows changing formats.

    It is a little hard to explain clearly... but here goes...

    This application will compare the following days scheduled recordings against those that you recorded last week. If you recorded a show in a timeslot last week, but have nothing scheduled for that timeslot this week, then it will display a suggestion that you may want to setup a recording for this week. There is an option to have the application automatically schedule a manual recording, and another option to notify you via "TiVo" mail of any suggestions.

    So in its base form, when "CheckSchedule.tcl" is run on a Tuesday, it will display the shows that were recorded last Wednesday and if any of those are not being recorded this week, it will suggest that you schedule them.

    If used as "CheckSchedule.tcl -d 3 -m" it will perform the check for the day 3 days in the future (rather than the default 1). It will also mail you if any shows are considered missing from that days scheduled recordings.

    If used as "CheckSchedule.tcl -s" it will perform the check, and create a manual recording if any shows are considered to be missing from the following days recordings.

    A good idea would be to run the module as "CheckSchedule.tcl -d 2 -m" which should give you a reasonable amount of warning if guide data changes for a particular show. If you find its suggestions are handy then you can add a "-s" to have it automatically create a manual recording.
