to reboot your hdhr from terminal use:hdhomerun_config "deviceid" set
/sys/restart selfwhere device id is the number of your device which you
can get with: hdhomeurn_config discover
you can make a simple script to trigger it as an event in myth like the
'recording pending' under system events insetup. i find that triggers
usually 30 seconds ahead of a recording. to further refine you would
want to check thatthe tuners are idle to have it not reboot on back to
back scheduled recordings.
