Sure this is simple, but you have to enter the time for cron/at.
I think a solution could be to write a small shellscript, which
reads out timer.conf and adds the specific line for cron. For the
future I was thinking of a switching clock which could be programed
via serial line.
So thinks should go like this:
- Program VDR via OSD
- Shutdown VDR by hand. This should trigger the following steps:
  + run script to set cron jobs
  + program switching clock (by hand or serial line)

So the first stage should run without any additional hardware.

I am not so used to shell script programing, but maybe I get
something out, thats working.
