For the Record is an advanced rule-based scheduling system to record your favorite TV programs on your computer, with support for various media centre applications including DVB Dream, GB-PVR and MediaPortal TV Server.
For those using For the Record on their home server in conjunction with power management add-in LightsOut, the latter needs to know when recordings have been scheduled, so Windows Home Server can be woken up in time to start the recording.
This add-in creates tasks in Lights-Out based on schedule information from For The Record. This is useful for people who want WHS to wake up whenever For The Record has scheduled a recording.
