I need help configuring the scheduler to record 24/7 of a channel,
saving both commercials and content. Hardware encoder will be used,
and files will be saved to NAS so space is not an issue. Previous
experience in a similar project preferred, email mark...@gmx.com with
any questions.

Thanks!

Do you need a single recording a day long, or do you just want to
record every show on a specific channel? It wouldn't take much to
write a custom recording rule for MythTV to always record everything
on a given channel. If you know a little SQL, just pull up the
following URL in MythWeb and create a rule:

http://<your-mythweb-ip>/tv/schedules/custom

something like "program.chanid = XXXXXX" should do the trick (I may be
a bit rusty on the specific syntax, so someone else may chime in to
correct me).
