Thanks, will disable all resume by alarm wake up events when I get home from work (the image is now my live config).

Sorry but I don't speak German at all. Is there anything else I need to do other than disable wake alarm events in BIOS?

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-10

Hello again,

I disabled the resume by alarm in the BOIS as per your instructions and image posted previously and I'm afraid it made no difference? It all "looks" ok but doesn't actually wake up and i know this function does work if I manually set the time to wake up via command line and put the computer on suspend.

Any idea? I tried translating some of the german from the forum you posted but couldn't decipher anything meaningful...

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - _BJ1 - 2015-11-10

Could you post a kodi.log (complete or the important parts) until shutdown? You'll find this after a new start as 'kodi.old.log'. You can select the important parts with the command

more ~/.kodi/temp/kodi.old.log | grep service.tvh.manager

on the terminal/console. Also be sure you have to enabeled the shutdown script (shutdown.sh) to execute shell commands with root privileges. See readme.pdf part 'visudo'. If your mainboard starts with RTC enabled it should be starting by the addon too.

Regards

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-10

Thanks, will post the log later on today. With regards to the VISUDO part, I'm using OpenElec so this stage isn't necessary?

I don't understand your last sentence "If your mainboard starts with RTC enabled it should be starting by the addon too." I have disabled 'Resume By Alarm' in the BIOS. Is there anything else I should enable/disable? As mentioned I can't see a problem with the BIOS as I can edit:

/sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm

and put in a time (e.g. 5 minutes later) and the computer wakes from Suspend. When I check using:

cat /proc/driver/rtc

and I can see the alarm_IRQ setting set to YES. Something that I never see with your script.

Thanks for all your prompt responses. WIll get back to to when I finish work.

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - _BJ1 - 2015-11-10

The code for setting the wakealarm executes very late while system is shutting down. So you have no chance to read the rtc because system shuts down immediatly after that. Look at the shutdown.sh (https://github.com/b-jesch/service.tvh.manager/blob/master/resources/lib/shutdown.sh), there is:

echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm # reset the rtc
echo $2 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm # set the new wakeup time
shutdown -h now # shutdown immediatly

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-10

P.S. I have replaced the photo of the BIOS manual in my previous post #121 with a snapshot of my actual live BIOS config. Hopefully it's now correct?

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - _BJ1 - 2015-11-10

The last lines of the log shows that You use the xbmc/kodi method. That ist happended from the method what you've defined in method for system wide poweroff (e.g. suspend, poweroff etc). Switch this to 'OS' (addon settings).

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-10

Sorry I don't understand this sentence:

"That ist happended from the method what you've defined in method for system wide poweroff (e.g. suspend, poweroff etc)."

I have changed it to "Operating System" in the addon (Shutdown performed by...)

Now it still says the usual "shutting down in 5,4,3,2,1... and still says the expected time it'll wake up e.g. "20:35 Recorded File" but then this time nothing happens from here.... it DOESN'T suspend? It just stays on the main menu screen.

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-10

Not sure if this is relevant but from doing the following command:

tail -f /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log

using the Kodi/XBMC method for shutdown the following lines appear.

20:40:06 T:139697451366272 NOTICE: OnSleep: Running sleep jobs
20:40:06 T:139697451366272 NOTICE: OnSleep: Stopping lirc

As you can see with the previously log, with the "Operating System" method it does not produce these lines.

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - _BJ1 - 2015-11-11

20:24:25 T:140501164472064 NOTICE: [service.tvh.manager]: Instruct the system to shut down using OS method
And this is the point where the shutdown.sh is called from the addon but does not execute properly. I don't know why. In 'normal' OSes this script must be executed with root privileges. This is what visudo does. Can you do a shutdown from console like

Code:
shutdown -h now
if yes, start the shutdown.sh separatly with the needed parameters. Look for a script that determines a timestamp that is e.g 10 minutes in future (http://www.unixtimestamp.com/index.php) and start the script, e.g.

Code:
~/.kodi/addons/service.tvh.manager/resources/lib/shutdown.sh ACPI 1447228800 1 # the second parameter ist the timestamp in future.
and look if the script shutdown and wake up the htpc properly. Btw.

Code:

20:40:06 T:139697451366272 NOTICE: OnSleep: Stopping lirc

doesn't matter.

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-11

Hi,

shutdown -h now (completely shutdown the OE 6.0 system)

and

~/.kodi/addons/service.tvh.manager/resources/lib/shutdown.sh ACPI 1447264920 (set the wake timer and when I put the computer in suspend using the kodi/xbmc method in the addon it woke up as expected.

In summary, both worked.

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - _BJ1 - 2015-11-12

You use OpenELEC, please edit the .kodi/addons/service.tvh.manager/default.py
Code:
nano .kodi/addons/service.tvh.manager/default.py
and change line #39 from
Code:
PLATFORM_OE = True if ('OPENELEC' in ', '.join(platform.uname()).upper()) else False
to
Code:
PLATFORM_OE = True # if ('OPENELEC' in ', '.join(platform.uname()).upper()) else False
This set PLATFORM_OE always to True

RE: [RELEASE]Plugin for Timer- and Powermanagement in XBMC/Kodi and TVHeadend - kurosh - 2015-11-12

Thanks, I guess that is what was suggested on the german kodi forum?

I will edit that when I get home later. I have a question though, should I switch the shutdown method to OS or KODI/XBMC in the addon?

In some circumstances the OS method is safer for me because this method use the 'shutdown -h now' command from shutdown.sh The Kodi/XBMC method use the shutdown mechanism provided by Kodi itself. Try yourself out.
