With regard to the settings being in two places. I think this is only 
relevant when using mythwelcome, the functionality in which has largely 
been replaced by https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Idle_Screen.

The only useful functionality left in mythwelcome, that I can see, is 
the ability to set a daily start up and shutdown time.

So where setwakeup.sh is specified from |mythtv-setup|, - mythwelcome 
and its settings are irrelevant.

When setwake.sh is replaced in |mythtv-setup |by calling mythshutdown  
-x then the shutdown and startup times are amended if required by the 
daily start and end times.

I have not noticed any changes relating to UTC since version 0.26 see 
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/UTC.
