Wie geen seconde wil missen van zijn of haar favoriete soap, serie of film, kan met behulp van het programma For The Record de beelden van de aanwezige tv-kaart op de pc opnemen. Het programma maakt daarbij gebruik van een intelligente regelset, zodat het bijvoorbeeld mogelijk is alle CSI-afleveringen op te nemen die tussen zeven en elf uur 's avonds worden uitgezonden en die nog niet eerder zijn opgenomen. Het kan daarbij gebruikmaken van online tv-gidsen, zodat de programmering niet handmatig hoeft te worden ingevoerd. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we jullie door naar deze handleiding in pdf-formaat. De ontwikkelaars hebben onlangs versie 1.3.3.1 uitgebracht en die voorzien van de volgende aankondiging en lijst met veranderingen:
Version 1.3.3 of For The Record has been released.
This is a maintenance release with a very strong focus on improving performance. Some of the more complex rules are now up to 30 times(!) faster than before. More common things will be quicker too: browsing the TV guide, popping up the mini-guide,...
We also improved the setup to automatically install the .NET 3.5 SP1 framework for you if needed. And to install Web Access on the built-in Cassini web server (much easier than having to configure IIS beforehand).
And of course some small new features too: support for logical channel numbers (LCNs), a disk-usage indicator in the MMC,...
Version 1.3.3.1:Version 1.3.3.0:

- Core: switched entire solution to .NET 3.5 SP1, installer can download and install the framework for you if needed. Ajax 1.0 is no longer required!
