A scheduled recording service for reporting status of a recording device includes a rule set which defines different operating states for the recording device in relation to a recording task. A task status function is adapted to receive status information for a particular recording task from the recording device and is operable to determine a current operating state for the particular recording task in accordance with the rule set. A reporting function is in data communication with the task status function and is operable to expose properties associated with the particular record task based on the current operating state.
