DvdpScheduler

This is something that I primarily wrote for my own use. I wanted a program that could help me schedule export, upload and backup to run at night. There is a slight drawback with this. Ideally such a program should run as a service. However, you cannot manipulate DVD Profiler unless you are actually logged in. And of course, this is a problem if you are not comfortable leaving your PC logged in.

But that doesn't mean that DvdpScheduler cannot be useful in other ways. You can use it to perform various actions as a one-shot with just one click. Set any event to run once, and set the run date to a date that has passed. The event will show up red, but you can still click the run button.

Remember what I wrote in an earlier post about the easiest way to export your collection? Well, that wasn't entirely true. With DvdpScheduler it's just a single click. Here are the tasks that you can perform:

Every event can be configured as one or more tasks to be run in sequence.

This program works best together with HTTPJolie. Sending keystrokes is tricky and timing is critical. It usually seems to work, though.
