[mythtv-users] setting the next wake-up time

Last week I was away and tried to schedule a few recordings. When I arrived
back I found that some of the shows had not been recorded. I suspect there
was a crash or maybe a power failure because in the log file I can see that
the backend started recording but the entry immediately following this one is
about my starting up the machine manually. The BE did not wake up for the
other recordings after this failure and this recording has the status
'aborted'.
So what I suspect is that -at least in my setup- the next wake-up is scheduled
only when the back end decides to shut down the machine - which obviously
does not happen in case of a crash or a power failure. Is my assumption
correct? If so, can this behavior changed? I thought it would be better to
call the script that sets the CMOS wake-up time as soon as this date/time
changes (ie. a new recording is scheduled and also right after startup).
