I'm running Windows Vista and I have a program called Streamripper32 which takes radio streams and separates the songs into separate individual tracks and records them to a folder.
What I want to do is use the Task Scheduler to start and run that program on a schedule. I've succeeded to make the app open on schedule, but I can't figure out how to make it start ripping.
Task Scheduler has an option to add arguments (in the "actions" tab). I've tried to add:
start
, startrip
, and run
in that box, and beyond that I don't know what else to try.
3I doubt you'll succeed if you continue using Task Manager. Task Scheduler OTOH might help... ;) (And yeah, provide more details.) – Karan – 2013-02-23T19:35:06.780
To closevoters: The other question is closed, and haven't received any answers. This one has a possible answer. What's the meaning of linking to a (closed) post which will not lead anywhere? – TFM – 2013-02-25T07:37:08.747
@TFM: If your original question is closed, aren't you supposed to edit and improve it and flag for reopening, instead of posting a duplicate? – Karan – 2013-02-25T22:05:21.167
@Karan: It definitely is the standard practice. However, I'm not sure if an answer can be moved, since this question has one, the other doesn't. Closing the other question as a duplicate of this one might also help. – TFM – 2013-02-26T05:11:54.467
@TFM now that this one is fleshed out & has an answer - it'll remain open. Close votes age out as well, so it should be fine :) – Sathyajith Bhat – 2013-02-26T06:09:08.090
