From my separate thread.
For populating the timers listing for any series that does not have a currently scheduled timer populate the scheduled time as 12/31/9999 (or some other future time) so they sort to the bottom of the timers list when looking at upcoming recordings.

Very interesting. I will investigate both logs in the daylight. The addon wakes it right up if the server has very recently been on, somehow that is a clue.
Oh wakeonlan.xml, didn't know about that.
Will mess with that too.
Cheers!

Alright, rolling this back...
Couldn't get it to wake with Kodi or the utility today. That'd be nice to fix, but clearly that has nothing to do with your fine addon.
Except the feature request: If it could fail quieter. Right now when it fails to wake, the addon is so spammy Kodi is unusable. So I have to turn it off, or go to the room with the server and push the damn button. Lazy maybe, but I see the frustration that prompted the original post.
I don't know that I can fix wol on that server. Seem to have it set right, and threw an hour of Sunday at it.
Thanks for the efforts!

And update: Fixed the server, now it wakes right up. If you have a Dude it's a free Dell server like me (I have 2), you need the nic enabled in the boot devices in bios. I still recommend a quieter fail/waking attemps for the WMC addon if WoL doesn't work. But don't worry about me!

I'll admit I didn't read through 23 pages of previous requests to see if this is a repeat, but I did do a keyword search and didn't find anything. It would be really nice to be able to get a notification if the tuner status is unavailable or disconnected. I have had a few times where something gets screwed up and a show doesn't record and when I go to look at serverwmc I see that the tuners are disconnected. Usually a simple restart fixes the issue, but to have a notification as soon as serverwmc notices something is disconnected would prevent missed recordings.
Ideally the notification would be via an automated email or text or something like that, but if that is annoying to implement, even just creating a text file in a dropbox folder that could be monitored by something like IFTTT would be a workable solution.
Thanks!

Serverwmc doesn't record anything, only WMC does. Do you mean your tuners are disconnected from WMC too? If so, yeah we can look at adding that, but why do you have this problem in the first place?
