This leads to 5 minutes "Taste drücken, um Ausschalten abzubrechen" being displayed on screen, so sending a key with svdrp to kill this annoying message (at least in times where a shutdown is not allowed due to shutdown-hooks) is no option. Even trying to handle the situation in a shutdown-hook at all is no option as they seem to be called after the "key-press to abort shutdown"-timeout. Seems like I have to options to work around this a) with a cron script sending svdrp HITK messages every minute as long as shutdowns are not wanted b) with a plugin creating fake activity while shutdowns are not wanted Regards, Norbert _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
