Script: write upcoming Tvheadend recording start dates to Synology power scheduler

# Write upcoming Tvheadend recording start dates to Synology power scheduler
# i.e. turn on your Synology so Tvheadend can record.
# Usage: ./pvr_poweron.py > /etc/power_sched.conf (or use cron)

TODO: enkel data voor deze week in rekening brengen.

Hi,

thanks for sharing - works great here and it's very usefull.
I just add two lines to handle PVR schedules within the next 7 days only, to avoid starts within the current time periode of the Power Scheduler that are related to schedules from onther upcoming weeks.

for date in start_dates:
date = date - 600
d = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(date)
n = datetime.datetime.now()
e = n + datetime.timedelta(days=6)
#print d.isoformat()
day_constant = DAYS[d.weekday()]
time_offset = 256*d.hour + d.minute
time_code = day_constant + time_offset
if d > n and d < e: print time_code
print '[Power Off schedule]'
