If I understand you correctly, then the system will shut down once there is no logged in user. In this situation, the message does make sense, and it would be awkward if VDR shuts down after the last user logs off without any further warning. VDR doesn't know much about what might have stopped shutdown externally, so the only way is to frequently retry. And since VDR never knows if shutdown will succeed, until the final termiante call, there needs to be a warning beforehand. After all, since there was no interactive usage for a long time, its very unlikely that there's someone actually seeing the shutdown messages pop up every few minutes. 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.
