Well, I wouldn't try to translate that one too literally (no need to tell about trying) - it's enough to inform user that VDR will shut down in a few minutes. If it fails due to any plugin activity that could be informed later on. These (sometimes rather annoying!) OSD messages should be as short and simple as possible. BR -- rofa
