Turning MMC off After Recording?

[Andrew 1961]

I always use the two-step method of Guide+ and then TV Setup which allows me to select the file location, and whether I want TV to close when finished. This is ESPECIALLY important with the HDTV-Wonder since DTV is a resource HOG and will not allow TV to run if DTV had been left open -- vica-versa I do believe as well.

I thought I had tried that too but have been mostly using Guide+ so may have missed it. So I guess when using Guide+ you do not have the option to turn the TV off when done. That's a shame as it is so much easier to record by simply clicking on a program. No start time, no end time, no channel number. Just click on the program and select record. Thanks for helping me with this.

If you use ATI's MMC TV program (not Guide+), hit the Scheduler tab.. and set an event manually there, the last step of the Wizard (if you still have the Record an Event Wizard working) has the check-box for this.

Just reverted an AIW 9700 Pro system from 9.08 to 9.06.1 and did this not more than 15 minutes ago.

Okay, I have seen and used this before but for the life of me I can no longer find the option to have MMC close after recording a TV show. I did switch from MMC 9.08 to 9.06.1 after reformatting but thought the option was still in 9.06.1. After recording, I come to my computer to find the TV still playing instead of shutting off like it used to. I also remember an option to have the sound muted while recording but can't find that either. What am I missing?
