Is possible set a message with a time > greater of time watchdog? It is. VDR 1.4.x even used a dirty workaround to display the 5 minute shutdown warning. (that is, calling signal(SIGALRM, SIG_IGN) before and signal(SIGALRM, Watchdog) after displaying the message.) While the message is shown, VDR is completely blocked, not starting timers and similar stuff. From the main thread you can use mtStatus as type to display messages asynchronously. mtStatus messages will be shown without blocking until manually removed or overwritten.
