Can Live TV be configured to search for a specific movie & record it?

Hi All,

Emby Live TV has its glitches, but I really wouldn't ever be without it now!

I'm really happy that it will record endless episodes of "Forged In Fire" once I've found it in the listings & told it to "record series".

It's 100% reliable, but requires a program to already be in the listings...

However, what I'd love to do is a feature I found in a HDD-PVR long ago. That device's code got released and a huge public code base erupted with useful features, very nice.

So I'd like to set key words to trigger a recording when it arrives, but it isn't in the current listings.

So a movie which only gets shown once a year can be captured on its way past (as it were), whatever channel it appears on.

A perfect example of what computers are good at.

Example might be "clandestine marriage" a very rarely broadcast movie.

Wouldn't that be great? - Of course if it's already there, tell me how!

Thanks, keep up the fabulous work.

Is this what you're requesting?

Oooh - sounds a LOT like it...yup just looked & THERE IT IS!!

Oh I DO say - how wonderful of you - thanks very much, clearly it was the phrase "keyword recording" which I was stupidly unable to work out!

I often find that with googling things, it helps if you use the right words!

Oh I'm going to LOVE this...

Thank you very much
