I'm running BOINC Manager 7.0.64 (x64) for Windows and would really appreciate a more flexible way of entering the times processing is allowed on the machine. When I'm working (08:00-16:00) I don't want BOINC to run at all; when I'm not working (00:00-08:00 and 16:00-23:59) I want to give BOINC all resources. As it is right now, I can only choose one continuous block (either 00:00-08:00 or 16:00-23:59). It would be beneficial if I can enter several time blocks: before work (00:00-08:00), lunch (13:00-14:00), after work (16:00-23:59), etc.

Already in the to do list at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/PrefsRemodel but no estimated time as to when --if ever-- this will be added.

That is one block! Just enter "Computing allowed every day between hours of 16:00 and 8:00".

Just lunch is not covered by that ;-)
