I notice that my DM600 degrades over time, i.e. when it hasn't been rebooted for a longer time, it will most have problems with certain channels, and sometimes show other symptoms, like a corrupted filesystem.

 

All these things go away when rebooting the box.

 

This is quite unpleasant when you have to restart during a good movie.

 

So I would like to have a cron job that restarts the box e.g. every morning at five (normally nobody is using the box then 8^)

Is there something like an at command for the DM 600?

 

Even better: is there a way to detect if someone is using the box at that time before rebooting? Of course I don't want to have an automatic reboot while I'm watching TV or the box is recording.

 

Hope there is a simple answer.

Hi,

I am not so fit with E1 anymore but perhaps a normal timer can do the job. In E2 I can create a zap timer and tell him to shutdown after the event. A second timer will wake the box up again.

 

ciao
