Description

The time format for mythshutdown has changed. It used to be "yyyy-MM-dd:hh:mm". Now it is "yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss". This is set in the mythtv-setup Shutdown/Wakeup Options page.

I'm not sure if it is possible to fix this in the database upgrade since we cannot be sure if the user is using mythwelcome. However, the setup instructions in mythwelcome-set-alarm.sh need to be corrected. See attached.

Cheers,

Allen

History

Updated by brfransen about 14 years ago

I have been using yyyy-MM-dd:hh:mm since .21 and am currently using trunk from a few days ago and mythshutdown works perfectly with yyyy-MM-dd:hh:mm. Additionally, I don't see any changes in the [[http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/log/trunk/mythtv/programs/mythshutdown|mythshutdown log]] that the time format has changed. Why do you think the time format has changed?

Updated by alien about 14 years ago

When I upgraded to latest testing, I got .22 and it stopped working. It took a while to discover what the problem was. I have no idea why they changed it. I suspect that it was changed a while ago and they supported both for a while, but now they have removed the old format. See below.

[allen@violet ~]$ mythshutdown --help Usage of mythshutdown -w/--setwakeup time (sets the wakeup time. time=yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss doesn't write it into nvram) -t/--setscheduledwakeup (sets the wakeup time to the next scheduled recording) -q/--shutdown (set nvram-wakeup time and shutdown) -x/--safeshutdown (equal to -c -t -q. check shutdown possible, set scheduled wakeup and shutdown) -p/--startup (check startup. check will return 0 if automatic 1 for manually) -c/--check flag (check shutdown possible flag is 0 - don't check recording status 1 - do check recording status (default) returns 0 ok to shutdown 1 reset idle check) -l/--lock (disable shutdown. check will return 1.) -u/--unlock (enable shutdown. check will return 0) -s/--status flag (returns a code indicating the current status) flag is 0 - don't check recording status 1 - do check recording status (default) 0 - Idle 1 - Transcoding 2 - Commercial Flagging 4 - Grabbing EPG data 8 - Recording - only valid if flag is 1 16 - Locked 32 - Jobs running or pending 64 - In a daily wakeup/shutdown period 128 - Less than 15 minutes to next wakeup period 255 - Setup is running -v/--verbose debug-level (Use '-v help' for level info -h/--help (shows this usage) [allen@violet ~]$

[[http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/18321/trunk/mythtv/programs/mythshutdown|Here]] is where it was changed, 18 months ago. Although I am still not sure why it is working for me with the old format.

Do you possibly have the :ss? I didn't have that. Maybe it was the missing :ss that broke mine and not the "T".

Updated by brfransen about 14 years ago

Nope, I have yyyy-MM-dd:hh:mm, no :ss and no T. But I only use the set wakeup and shutdown period. Maybe that is why it is working for me.

Updated by alien about 14 years ago

That would explain it. The wakeup period is calculated internally by mythshutdown. The -setwakeup is only used by the backend to set the next recording time.

In my case, my box kept waking up for the daily wakup, but stopped waking up to record programs until I changed the time format.

mythwelcome-config.py should be called in the mythtv .23 upgrade script.
