Web front end for management/ renaming your recordings, ability to 
digital extract to put onto other mediums.

You can certainly send remote control keystrokes via a URL if you've got
TivoWeb installed.... so any cron or similar program could directly hit
record (I think you'll need to also press select a few times or 
something... not sure how unsubbed work with no schedule etc) .... as 
for "stopping", you could force a channel change, up to abandon
recording and select.....

So yes, you should be able to bodge something together with a bit of 
playing. :)
