This plugin controls a solid-state relay via the TxD line of a serial port, so that the audio/video output equipment is powered off when the user is inactive. http://www.iki.fi/~msmakela/software/vdr/vdr-relay-0.1.0.tgz http://www.iki.fi/~msmakela/electronics/relay/index.en.html Example of usage: vdr -P'relay --relay=/dev/ttyS0' Note to Finnish users: the prototype relay box featured on the instructions page is for sale, because at a later point, I installed the relay inside the monitor to reduce the clutter of cables.
