| 858149 | 2010-02-14 00:17:00 | I doubt there will be a program to turn the laptop on and run / make the PVR program record as well. The only way, it may turn on is if you enable WOL (but it would have to be connected to a LAN), in the BIOS. But then you'll still have probs, getting the PVR program to run and record after. I would say the only way, is to leave the laptop on and set the PVR program to record whatever at whatever time, then set it to shut the laptop down after (if its got the option) | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 858150 | 2010-02-14 00:22:00 | The software that comes with the AVermedia (www.avermedia-usa.com) has the ability to record at a set time, and shut down the PC afterwards. Not to sure if it will auto startup the PC/laptop though to start recording. | wainuitech (129) | ||

| 858152 | 2010-02-14 00:42:00 | Yup the schedule on this lets you make a silent record / record, or activate AverTV. Lets you record from TV or tuner, record from whatever channel, set the time, for weekly, or everyday. What hdd to record it to, what format, the duration and an option to split it and the audio mode. But no option to turn the system off later. That may work if the BIOS has the option. Not all do | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 858153 | 2010-02-14 00:47:00 | You should be able to start up (and stop?) the computer from hibernation using Task Scheduler (havent tried it myself). | feersumendjinn (64) | ||
