Weird. I dont get it. I'll keep testing here and there. Thank you again Kurto.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
Second Jay Thomas recording initially failed - ID and PW didn't go through. The "click OK to stop the timer" or whatever message was still up. I clicked OK, and the browser closed.
I went back into the xm.exe application, changed the start time for one minute in the future (to just restart), waited, and it worked. Not sure why the ID/PW failed the first time.
Try #3 later today.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
Try #3 started OK but timed out after some period of time.
One thing I was thinking about: does xm.exe have to have focus to be able to send the keepalives? I think I may have given focus to the browser to turn the volume up on the player. If that's the case, I probably didn't give focus back to xm.exe.
Try #4 will be next Monday.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
My last two daytime recording attempts were completely unsuccessful. As far as I can tell the script did not even start.
An overnight recording on 8/26 quit after 1 hour 34 minutes.
I'm curious if the brass at Applian have inquired about purchasing the script from Kurto and incorporating it into their own code for a future release.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
the window shouldn't have to be active as I use a command to activate the Sirius XM IE browser window before sending the key strokes to keep alive. The problme I have been having is for some reason nothing seems to be recording...I appear to be lauching the browser and starting replay av but I will have to work on this some more.....I was out of town last week so didn't get a chance to play with it.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
Thank you for writing this script. It's working perfectly on IE9, however, my work horse Replay A/V runs on XP and IE8 and nine times out of ten, I'm off a tab. My password gets entered in the Username field. I tried all sorts of Toolbar combinations but cannot get the script to consistently log in successfully. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Re: Working on an XM solution - Anyone wanna help test it
I've been getting pretty good results lately. The biggest issue I'm seeing is that in IE 9, there is a pop-up (or something) about finding plug-ins that is interfering with the script. It only happens once a day (or after reboot).
As long as I make sure to start IE9 at least once before recording, the app has been pretty good.
