Replay AV is an application that allows you to record Internet Radio/TV and Sirius/XM Satellite Radio. The application can be run as a Windows Service using FireDaemon Pro, which allows you to have the application start automatically at boot prior to login, start multiple instances of the application and more. This HOWTO will show you how to set it up. You can also use FireDaemon Fusion to manage FireDaemon and other Windows services via a web browser.


Replay AV Setup Under FireDaemon Pro

Download the latest Replay AV files from the Replay AV website.


Install Replay AV. By default Replay AV installs to C:\Program Files\Replay AV 8\ so for the purposes of this HOWTO, we will use that directory.


Download and install FireDaemon Pro into the directory of your choice, typically C:\Program Files\FireDaemon.


Next start the FireDaemon GUI from the desktop shortcut. Click on the "Create a new service definition" button in the toolbar (or type Ctrl+N) and enter the information into the fields as you see below. Adjust the paths to suit your installation.



Executable: The path to your ReplayAV.exe file. For the purposes of this HOWTO, the path is C:\Program Files\Replay AV 8\ReplayAV.exe.


Working Directory: The directory containing your ReplayAV.exe file. For the purposes of this HOWTO, the path is C:\Program Files\Replay AV 8.


Parameters: None. Leave this field blank.


Now click on the Settings tab. If you DON'T want to see Replay AV running, uncheck the Interact with Desktop check box & select “Hidden” from the “Show Window” dropdown. For Replay AV to work properly, you must run it as an administrator user. In the Logon Account field type your username (e.g. Administrator) and then enter the user's password twice in the Password and Confirm fields. You can change the Process Priority to allocate more CPU time to Replay AV or specify which CPU or core Replay AV will run on (in the case of multi-processor, hyperthreaded or multi-core CPUs).



Now click on the Lifecycle tab. Uncheck Graceful Shutdown as Replay AV doesn't respond to it.



Now click on the OK button to install and start Replay AV!
