Hi,

here's a new plugin especially for VDRs not running 24/7. It allows you to execute tasks in the context of VDR and trigger wakeups for this.

Features:

- optional wakeup of VDR to execute a job (no dummy timers needed anymore) - prevent a shutdown while a job is still executed - optional announcements of job start/finish via OSD - start external jobs via SVDRP in the context of VDR - display current and previous job output

Requirements: - vdr >= 1.5.1 or - vdr-1.4.5 with the backport of the new shutdown handler (http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/patches.html#shutdown)

Have fun!
