Hi all
Cable STB requires a PIN to be entered for some channels at certain times. This cannot be removed by the cable company as apparently this is a requirement from the regulator.
Any program (movies basically) rated 12+ cannot be viewed before 21:00 without first entering a 4 digit PIN number.
Can anyone think of a way for mythtv to handle this situation better than me manually making sure these recordings begin after 21:00?
I kinda feel it ought to be possible!
We have the ratings for all the shows (programrating), we know when it starts, we know we have to enter 4 digits then “OK” a few seconds after landing on the (certain) channel(s) in question if start time is before 21:00, we have a channel switching script to send these digits over (network not lirc btw).
I just don’t know how it could be put together…
Cheers
Rob
