This if I only press F12 and wait...
No countdown, no shudown.
Any idea where I can search ?

You have a problem with the shutdown.sh. 'Instruct the system to shut down' calls this script. Owner and group is the user which runs xbmc (in your case 'my-user')?

Hello Bj1

Thanks for your answer.

/home/bm/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib
~/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib$ ls -l
total 8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bm bm 262 oct. 2 13:56 shutdown.sh

and the shutdown script (I added "sudo" in front of "shutdown -h now ....." in order to run it as root).

#! /bin/sh
sleep 2
case "$1" in
ACPI)
echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
echo $2 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
;;
NVRAM)
nvram-wakeup -C /etc/nvram-wakeup.conf --directisa -s $2
;;
esac
sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now "PVRManager shutdown the system"

This script runs very well (it shutdowns the system) when launch by "bm", my user.
./shutdown.sh
.....
stop the system.

And the sudoers:

bm All=NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown,/home/bm/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib/shutdown.sh

In the config, I don't check ethernet connections.

Nothing in syslog, neither in wbmc.log (just the same things as pvrmanager.log):

Hi,

I understood !
Issue was with sudoers. My ubuntu release doesn't like several lines like this:
bm All=NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown,/home/bm/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib/shutdown.sh

For one user, we have to write all the command on the same line and not several lines "user ......" and below "user .....".

It works very well. Thanks for your job and your help.

Just a last question: is it normal this behavior ?

--- programming a timer
--- press F12
--- the system halts
---the system wakes up
--- the timer is recording
--- the system doesn't halt after this record.

Thanks a lot and good week end !

No, this is'nt normal behavior. What says the prvmanager.log after recording?

Hi _BJ1,

I've just installed XMBC and your addon but I'm having problems getting it to work right. It seems like the addon is not starting right. The only lines I get in the log are:

Code:

Does this give any clues as to what might be going wrong?

How do you switch off the system? It seems that you switch off by pressing the power button on your device. Normally the 'Power'-action restarts the pvrmanager (you have to modify the remote.xml/keyboard.xml) and pvrmanager shut down the system but checks for network/future recordings/EPG before. This looks like this:

Code:

23.12.2013 20:12:27: No PIDFile found, assuming that system just powered on.

Ah, I was using the power button, not F12, so that solves part of the problem, thank you. However, now that I am using F12 the system will not shut down. A pop-up appears telling me about the next recording, and then disappears, but the system remains on. Using inotifywait I'm monitoring access of shutdown.sh, and it doesn't get accessed. Here's the xbmc.log:

Yea everybody seems to be correct except the shutdown. Seems to be a rights issue for execution. Note that xbmc is the user which runs/install xbmc. It's possible that you have to change this to your own user. From README.txt:

2. Change group/owner of shutdown.sh and make it executable

Code:
    cd /home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib/

    sudo chown xbmc shutdown.sh

    sudo chgrp xbmc shutdown.sh

    sudo chmod 755 shutdown.sh

3. Make possible shutdown.sh runs under root/sudo privileges without password

Code:
    sudo visudo

add below/at the end of the file:

### XBMC specific configuration ###
# XBMC

Code:
    Cmnd_Alias PVR_CMDS = /home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/script.program.pvrmanager/resources/lib/shutdown.sh

for XBMCLive (Ubuntu 10.04):

append at last line 'PVR_CMDS' (for example):

Code:
    xbmc ALL=NOPASSWD: SHUTDOWN_CMDS, MOUNT_CMDS, PVR_CMDS # XBMC

for XBMCBuntu (Ubuntu 11.10/12.04 and up) add following line

Code:
    xbmc ALL=NOPASSWD: PVR_CMDS

Hope this helps.

_BJ1 · 2014-06-06, 09:50

Update. For more informations see first post...

spontex · 2014-06-07, 21:17

Thank you for this new release. I just installed the update. I did not have to change any setting.

_BJ1 · (This post was last modified: 2014-06-10, 12:52 by _BJ1.)

Several smaller bugfixes. Mail was'nt delivered after a successfull recording. This has no effect for people who does'nt use this feature. Anyway it is fixed now.

spontex · 2014-06-15, 22:38

Still no mail on my setup. Never got one!

_BJ1 · 2014-06-16, 08:03

Logs please!

Code:

more ~/.xbmc/temp.xbmc.log | grep -i script.pvrmanager

spontex · 2014-06-16, 09:59

Here are the logs. "script.pvrmanager" gives nothing. "pvr manager" gives:

There is something wrong with the version management of xbmc. You are using a very old and outdated version of this addon. Confused

Anyway the log says:

Quote:14:01:00 T:1926232896 NOTICE: PVR Manager: Recording of "Bondy blog café" has finished.
14:01:00 T:1926232896 NOTICE: PVR Manager: ERROR: SMTP AUTH extension not supported by server.
14:01:00 T:1926232896 NOTICE: PVR Manager: Mail could not be delivered. Check your settings.

Check on your providers page what encryption type is used (none, STARTTLS, SSL) and adjust this in your mail settings. Anyway I suggest you to uninstall the old addon, reboot/restart XBMC and then install the latest one. You see the version numbering here (last lines in the right corner):
