If the option to set a future date were to be added to MinimStreamer at some point, how would you use it? For example, do you want to schedule a single recording on a future date or do you want to record a radio program every week at the same time and the same day of the week?


I think a weekly record would be very useful indeed, just to record that Wednesday night show I keep missing.

Is there a plan, if or when a rework is in progress?

There is no estimated date for this at the present time.

If you run Minimserver and Minimstreamer on a Windows PC, I described how you can use the Windows Task Scheduler to do what you express a desire to do.

A similar approach should be possible on other platforms that provide the ability to create a scheduled task to run at some future time. It would also be possible to create another scheduled task to stop the recording.
