    Wake me up before you go-go

    + +If a plugin wants to schedule activity for a later time, or wants to perform +periodic activity at a certain time at night, and if VDR shall wake up from +shutdown at that time, the plugin can implement the function + +

    +virtual time_t WakeupTime(void);
+

    + +which shall return the time of the next custom wakeup time, or 0 if no wakeup +is planned. VDR will pass the most recent wakeup time of all plugins, or the next +timer time, whichever comes first, to the shutdown script. The following sample +will wake up VDR every night at 1:00: + +

    +time_t MyPlugin::WakeupTime(void)

+}

    + +After wakeup, the plugin shall continue to return the wakeup time and shall +return a string when Active() is called at that time, otherwise VDR may shut down +again instantly. If WakeupTime() returns a time that is not in +the future, the time will be ignored. +
