Hi,
what is the timezone of the "next timer" Unixtime/time_t parameter that vdr passes to the shutdown-hooks?
Regards,
Hanno

Not from knowledge but from experience I can say it is localtime. Your vdr-addon-acpiwakeup script works only if localtime is UTC and /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm expects POSIX epoch, so it must be localtime.

From VDR/INSTALL:
The command given in the '-s' option will be called with five parameters.
The first one is the time (in UTC) of the next timer event or plugin wakeup time (as a time_t type number), ...

I stand corrected. To be honest, I am not sure whether I tested the acpi-wakeup using UTC=no with the vdr. Maybe I started the shutdown hook only by hand, making wrong assumptions about the used timezone, sorry.
