Seems to work fine for me. You must have some wrong settings somewhere.
 
You do know there are two separate time formats settings?

One is normally used by the backend when setting the next recording
start time and is usually passed to 'mythsutdown -w'. It's on the
General settings->Wakeup/Shutdown settings page in mythtv-setup. Should
normally be set to 'yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm' - note the T in there.

The other time format setting is on  MythWelcome's settings page. It is
the time format passed to the command that actually sets the next wakeup
time in the BIOS. If you are using nvram-wakeup then it should be set to
'time_t'.
