according to the other mail you can choose to set your hardware clock<br>
chip to:<br>
* local wall clock time and add the conversion between UTC and local<br>
time to your MythTV shutdown script<br>
* UTC without any calculations on the linux side, but needs a registry<br>
hack for windows (see Chris' mail, this option is new to me)<div class="im"><br>

S5 is what happens when you tell the computer to power off instead of<br>
some kind of sleeping.<div class="im"><br>

look for known issues with your selected hardware. Maybe on linuxtv or<br>
search the internet for problems reported by others.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Would my experience with powering off during nights when I know I'll be up before the next recording indicate that my hardware is OK with S5? </div>

follow bug reports and user discussion wrt hibernate etc. but plain old<br>
turn off and on is known to work. I have no idea how the backend likes<br>
it if the system time suddenly jumps ahead some hours/days.<br>
<br>
<br>
I'd just try if the system comes back up when you set an alarm in<br>
5 minutes and shut down. If that doesn't work disable the update of the<br>
hwclock on shutdown, see the howto you referred to. And only if that<br>
does not work start looking into the other options.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br>
