[vdr] Power down problem

[zoc@zocki.toppoint.de (Rainer Zocholl)]

Hello


Have 1..2 probs with "power down":

1.
If VDR is recording, nicely the message 
"Recording, shut down anyway?" comes.
"OK"
"Press any key to cancel"
"no key"

and:
No shut down occurs.

Tried serveral times.

Nice bug... :-)

The power-off programms realizes the wake-up time in the past and
does nothing, of cause. 
VDR should give the next event which is more than 10 minutes 
in the future. ("10 minutes" because nvram-wakeup
refuses to shut down for less than 10 minutes. But the user
said: "shut down now" and would be irrtaded that nothing happens)

(Is there a way that VDR may display the output of
the power off script like in commands.conf?)



2.
After ending of an recording, the shutdown seens 
to occur immediately, with no grant.

But I set 15 Min "event time out"
62 min "user time out".

Bug or feature?
(Thought that vdr would wait  5 minutes 
shut down as like user timeout?)

It is "surprising" because sometimes i watch
and do not realize that vdr is recording in the background.
If im not watching every second, i had no chance to
stop the power down...

But in the moment i see no way to solve that problem,
except extremly increase the "user timeout".

A 3..5 minutes "grant" would help, 
maybe only if there were in the last 2h any RC commands,
indicating that VDR is not running "alone".
I think this problem occurs too when "manual" recording.
I don't know what happens, if the user watsches a recording
that's longer than "user timeout". Will VDR turn poer off
immediately too?
