[mythtv-users] How to shedule recordings from command line?

[Mario Bernard]

I have made a Scheduling Interface for use with TVGenial, a Windows oriented TV Schedule Applikation. It allows to record programs and calls an DOS Command line. I used this interface to create sql scripts which manupulate the database. 
Backdraws are, that I should have knowledge about the DB and changing the DB does not always reschedule the new recordings immediately.

It would be great if I could call a PHP program from Mythweb, specifying the recording arguments and the job gets done.
One year ago, before a lot of reworking was projected for Mythweb, I had a look, but could not easily identify if one PHP Program could do the job.

  The telnet interface is part of mythfrontend, which is what the OP was trying to avoid.  It doesn't have explicit support for scheduling, either;  you can use it to navigate to the appropriate screen, and push in the appropriate key presses, but it's not exactly a convenient way to schedule anything. 

  Mythweb really is the cleanest way to do this stuff.  I'm having a hard time envisioning a command-line interface that would be usable in any kind of general sense.
