Description Toni Helenius 2007-09-18 18:35:28 UTC

Version:           0.8.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Many times I put a video on and go to bed, and without getting up, I'd like my computer to shutdown. So that I can just start sleeping! I don't know if this is possible in Linux systems, to call shutdown from an application. But it would be a great feature alongside the "quit -> after playlist" etc.

I would use it *every* night :) Now I just dual-boot to Windows and do this with Media Player Classic, but it is a minor nuisance to switch operating systems just because I'm sleepy!

It would be even more useful adding this feature to timers, so that you can program recording a show at late night and have the computer to shutdown when the recording is done.
There are standalone applications to shutdown the PC at a given time (GShutDown for example - not a KDE app, sorry), but it would be much more convenient to have it integrated.

This bug is too old, for a version < 1.3. Closing it, as the latest version is 2.0.1, and lots of things changed since version 1.2.x, including the usage of VLC as video display backend, support for DVB-T2 and ISDB-T via libVLC, etc.

You may check on the upstream version and see if the bug was solved. The README file contains instructions about how to compile it. You can find it at our git repository:

If you find similar issues with version 2.0.1, please re-open.
