<p>Mine wakes on time to record programs, the same as in
16.04 but I think it does not do this for the daily wake
up time set in Mythwelcome. Could that be your issue?<br>
</p>
</div>
No, I don't use Mythwelcome, but thanks for the reply, I'll
go over my setup again, I must have missed something.
Curious that the wakeup_test.sh, thanks Bill, restarts 16.04
and not 18.04 when the report from (bad syntax from memory)
proc driver rtc is identical from both distros.

Hey Daryl,<br>
<br>
recently I set up a new MythTV system (see signature) and there I
switched to the new method of using only:<br>
<tt>/usr/sbin/rtcwake --date "<datestring>" --mode no</tt><br>
to set the wakeup time.<br>
<br>
This works fine for my system.<br>
<br>
The MythTV wiki was quite confusing as there is a lot of outdated
and ambigous information, but you can find the above mentioned call
as well, if you search for it.<br>
<br>
Btw., I made a small script to also update the LCD display with the
next scheduled automatic wakeup time:<br>
<blockquote><font size="-2"><tt>me@mysystem:~$ cat
/usr/sbin/wakewrapper.sh </tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>#!/bin/bash</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># Sets RTC wake time and inserts the time into
LCDd.conf for letting the display inform about the next wakeup
time when the system is off</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>if [ -z "$1" ]</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> then</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> echo "Usage $0 <time>"</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> exit 1</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>fi</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># set wake time</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>wakestring=`/usr/sbin/rtcwake --date "$1" --mode no`</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># grab the confirmed wake time</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>wakestring=`rtcwake --mode show | grep Alarm`</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># extract only time of confirmation output</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>waketime=${wakestring:15:16}</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># convert utc time string to local time</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>waketime=`date --date="$waketime +0000" +"%d. %b %T"`</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># update LCDd.conf with wake time</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>sed -i -e "s/GoodBye = \"[^H].*/GoodBye =
\"$waketime\"/g" /etc/LCDd.conf</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt># reload LCDd to let it use the new config</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>systemctl reload-or-restart LCDd.service</tt><tt><br>
</tt></font></blockquote>
The sed command to update the LCDd.conf has to be adapted to the
target environment. It needs to filter out the second GoodBye line,
that should not be overwritten. Mine begins with "H", therefore the
regex skips every GoodBye lines that have a value beginning with
"H".<br>
<br>
Have fun!<br>
Nicolas<br>
