[mythtv-users] Mythwelcome not shutting down after DailyWakeupEndPeriod1

Hey all,

I have MythFillEnabled set and the min and max hours set to the wee hours of 
the morning.  If my combined FE-BE machine is left on overnight the fill runs 
fine. 

Since I have a combined FE-BE I use mythwelcome and I have tried setting the 
start and end periods so the machine will wake up and for the database fill 
and then shutdown, however the shut down does not seem to be working - the 
machine just sits there with a 'Mythtv is Idle' status.

when outside of the wakeup period mythshutdown -v all -s returns :

2006-09-22 11:46:49.113 Mythshutdown: --status
2006-09-22 11:46:49.147 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 
'MythShutdownLock' AND hostname IS NULL;
2006-09-22 11:46:49.148 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 
'DailyWakeupStartPeriod1' AND hostname IS NULL;
2006-09-22 11:46:49.149 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 
'DailyWakeupEndPeriod1' AND hostname IS NULL;
2006-09-22 11:46:49.149 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 
'DailyWakeupStartPeriod2' AND hostname IS NULL;
2006-09-22 11:46:49.150 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE value = 
'DailyWakeupEndPeriod2' AND hostname IS NULL;
2006-09-22 11:46:49.151 Mythshutdown: --status returned: 0

and idleTimeoutSecs is set to 15, which implies from the test in 
updateStatusMessage() line 635 : 

<snip>
    if (m_statusList.count() == 0)
    {
        if (m_bWillShutdown && m_secondsToShutdown != -1)
<snip>

that m_secondsToShutdown == -1, because a SHUTDOWN_COUNTDOWN is not being 
received.  Now , in my log I have the worrying line :

2006-09-22 10:40:51.188 Seem to be woken up by USER

Which makes me think that mythtv thinks its been envoked by a user and so will 
not automagically shutdown (I think I've seen some code implying it blocks 
this on user startup).

Mythtv version is Gentoo 0.20_p11244

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Bryan.
