The code I have used to do this is:
private void doSchedule(string title, string date) {
try {
string xml =
"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?> " +
"<clickToRecord xmlns=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:ehome:clicktorecord\">" +
" <body>" +
" <metadata><description>Scheduled with Mce Bulk Sceduler</description></metadata>" +
" <programRecord prepadding=\"0\" postpadding=\"0\" isRecurring=\"false\">" +
" <program>" +
" <key field=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:ehome:epg:program#title\" match=\"exact\">" + title + "</key>" +
" </program>" +
" <airing timeZone=\"60\" searchSpan=\"10\">" +
" <key field=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:ehome:epg:airing#starttime\">" + date + "</key>" +
" </airing>" +
" </programRecord>" +
" </body>" +
"</clickToRecord>";
byte[] byteArr;
System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoding = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
byteArr = encoding.GetBytes(xml);
Microsoft.Windows.MediaCenter.ProgramDetails [] details;
System.IO.Stream sr = new System.IO.MemoryStream(byteArr);
ClickToRecord.Submit(sr,
Microsoft.Windows.MediaCenter.ClickToRecord.ConflictResolutionPolicy.AllowConflict,
out details);
} catch (Exception ex) {
WriteToLog(ex.ToString());
}
}
The Api then searches the EPG data and schedules the recording if it finds a match. The Api is documented at MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/MedctrSDK/htm/clicktorecordfeature.asp
