Why don't you add a 5 minute every day timer with a low priority and automatic deletion? That should pretty much do the trick. jm2c. On 14. September 2014 12:02:09 MESZ, "Thomas Maaß" wrote: >Hi! >I use epgsearch's searchtimer to record my favorite series. >But there could be a problem when us

Hi! I use epgsearch's searchtimer to record my favorite series. But there could be a problem when using automatic shutdown and wakeup. When there is no event in the current epg, the searchtimer will not be updated any more. The shutdown script will get no wakeup time, because there is no timer. The
