Restart dreambox automatically?

23 November 2013 - 14:01

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.
