As it is developed specially for VDR systems. + +Features: +- Faster than acpid with all the required external scripts. +- Emergency reboot feature. You don't loose the power button as safe emergency + exit button. Just press it four times within three seconds and a clean reboot + is triggered. +- Very easy to set up. If you want, you can just copy the "vdrpbd" file to your + VDR system and execute it. VDR should react to the power button immediately! +- Systemd integration. If systemd is detected, then vdrpbd tries to register + itself as "power button inhibitor". The module "Net::DBus" is required for + this to work. -- cgit v1.2.3
