Thanks for this useful tool. Is it possible to script the launch of the AutoRestart app, building in the location of the .XEJ file? Something like a simple BAT file with "c:\path\to\restart.exe c:\path]to\file.XEJ" so I can add it to the Startup folder and have a hands-off encoder restart in the case of a system crash?

Thanks

Hi, thanks for posting your application. I seem to have an issue trying to get it working and I wondered if you might have an idea as to why I am having this issue.

I have a Live Job file that i created with Expression Encoder 4. I am using a file on my hard drive for the source and I have it setup to loop. I have setup the live job to push the stream to a publishing point. This works just fine through the Expression Encoder 4 GUI. However, when I try to use your program the program hangs on the job.StartEncoding and the last event logged into the program is User: Trying to start encoding.

I cannot figure it out. The same exact live job file works fine with the EE4 GUI but not with your program or with the code I put together using the SDK.

If you could help shed some light as to what could be happening that'd be great!

Thanks a lot! Downloaded. Still have several question (hope you know):

1. How to set the archive file, as in Window Media Encoder 9: WMEncoder.File.LocalFileName

2. What functions to call to automate archiving, as what WMEncoder.Archive does?

Many thanks!
