@paulrickards Oh wow. I remember when my dad replaced our old RCA VCR with a Sony model in the mid-90s, and Mom was excited that we could use the VCR+ codes in the TV guide to record shows instead of having to manually put the time periods in (she’d occasionally make errors). I haven't seen this app before, was it for the Macintosh TV? Or for a particular model of TV tuner card?
