Re: [vdr] VDR wird in 3:00 Minuten ausschalten
Hi, ok, this could be a solution, i'd rather like to use the VDR internal parts but an external script that logs user activity and sends a command to VDR would be possible. So when there are active recordings or the next recording would be due in 5 minutes the VDR would NOT switch off? Even if it gets the hitk power? Best regards Torsten Am Donnerstag, 17.

Why not 180 minutes? ok, that could be debugging left-over from the last setup. I'll try the value 180, maybe this improves it. If nothing happens and nobody is logged in i shut down the VDR after 30 minutes. So a value of 180 would prevent a shutdown after 30 minutes of inactivity? The vdr tracks remote keypresses. If the last keypress is longer ago than the inactivity timeout (180 = 3 hours), the user is set to inactive. Then vdr asks all plugins if they are active and if not it triggers the shutdown. With a hitk power you can always set the user to inactive state before the timeout is reached. Lars.

Re: [vdr] VDR wird in 3:00 Minuten ausschalten
Hi, i have set MinUserInactivity to 10. Pressing any button on the remote is very annoying, pressing a button gives me 5 minutes of warning free TV. I also thought about patching VDR sources and compiling it myself but i can't imagine that nobody else would benefit from that, i don't think my system setup is that special.

It would, but in that case the automatic shutdown would be disabled too. In that case, hitting the power button is required to get inactive, resulting in the same frequent shutdown retries as before. @Torsten: Regarding the original problem, to what value is your MinUserInactivity option set? If you did set that to a very small value, you're probably trying to get around an automatic shutdown issue the wrong way.

If I understand you correctly, then the system will shut down once there is no logged in user.

VDR doesn't know much about what might have stopped shutdown externally, so the only way is to frequently retry.

There's a more complex plugin interface to shutdown, where even the shutdown message can be suppressed while busy, but there's no easy way to extend this to external scripts. One could however write a plugin that provides more complex interaction with external scripts, like ask for shutdown, and accepting something like wait for 5 more minutes in return, without displaying messages.
